Weddings for Warriors Update

A few things have happened this past week. Due to a scheduling conflict we had to move the wedding date up 2 weeks to Sunday, August 12. Luckily all the vendors so far are OK with the date change! And then the most exciting thing happened! We got some news coverage! Channel 2 (WSBTV) and Channel 11 (11 Alive News) ran the story.

On Sunday afternoon, Channel 2 came out to our Facility, Simple Gatherings, to interview our Bride and Natalie with Cake Envy who started this whole thing!

Bride, Amanda being interviewed 

The story ran on Sunday on the 6 o'clock and 11 o'clock news. It was very brief, however, we had something great come from it! We were hoping to get a Limo for the Bride and Groom to take them from the Reception to the Hotel. Atlanta Rolls Royce contacted Natalie and wants to provide their Rolls Royce for Transportation! 

Then on Monday 11 Alive decided to cover it too! Click here to view their coverage. 

Thanks to all of our amazing vendors for participating in this great event!
