Manguso/Brennan Coordination
July 22, 2008
One Saturday afternoon, while I was snug in my pj’s and reading a good book, my boss calls me in a panic explaining that she had been in an accident and needed me to cover her wedding for her. The only catch was – it was to begin in 30 minutes! I got dressed as fast as I could, and headed straight to work. I arrived just in the knick of time – guests were being seated and the bride was ready to go!
I checked in with the wedding coordinator for the bride and groom, did a quick walk-through of the ceremony room, and checked on the status of the reception room. The ceremony went off without a hitch, but much to the guests surprise, we were forced to kick them out of the room so we could do a very quick one-hour turnover. We turned half of the room into the other half of the reception room – with a partition now open connection the two rooms. Let me tell you…it was utter CHAOS! But we have a fantastic staff, and they were ready to accommodate this group with ease.
My clients or not, I am ecstatic I was able to be part of such a wonderful gathering of guests. Not to mention, I ran into one of my old collegues, Beth Snook, who happened to be one of the bridesmaids. Hi Beth!
Enjoy the pictures…this was one of the more finely decorated weddings we’ve had.
