My First Wedding

The first wedding was a success! It was more than a success! On top of everything running smoothly, it proved to me that this is really what I want to do for the rest of my life! I am so excited to really delve into the industry here in central Iowa.

There were many kind words exchanged at the ceremony and the reception. Friends and family were toasting the couple and sharing with them how much of a difference each one of them has made in their lives. It was nice to hear and I am looking forward to sharing more special days like this with other brides and grooms and those they are close to.

After the wedding, the mother of the bride wrote me a very nice note in which she expressed her gratitude for what I had helped with and some encouragement for the future. She said that I "have a calming effect on people" with my "kind and helpful ways." She added, "that's a great talent in dealing with brides and their mothers during a fun but stressful time."

I am so excited my first event went so well. I wish the bride and the groom all the best and look forward to soon meeting a new couple that shares similar qualities!
