Irene - Not a Nice Lady

So this past weekend ended a little differently then I had hoped.  We had to post-pone the wedding we had scheduled.  Our fantastic couple decided to go ahead with their church ceremony on Saturday, just moved it up a few hours.  They are now on their honeymoon and will return to celebrate their nuptials with CHEER on Saturday, September 3rd.  They were very understanding and I feel so lucky for that.  Anyway, I have nothing further to post on this other then Congratulations S&D!!!  See you Saturday!! 

T&J's Berry & Blue Ceremony & Reception

We're back at it again!  This past weekend was AWESOME!  Amazing couple with an amazing group of people behind them to celebrate.  T&J have been together for 10 years, so this ceremony and reception was something guests and the couple came together to celebrate from start to finish.  (And boy did they celebrate!!) 

I took more pictures from this one than I have in the past, but can you blame me?  They had one space set up for their ceremony and the other spaces became the reception area.  170+ guests helped to set the mood - love, laughter and fun were the theme on Saturday night!  Simple centerpieces, photos of the couple around the room and another delicious meal by Catchers helped contribute to the excitement of the evening.  A close friend of the couple doubled as the DJ and he had the entire crowd up on the dance floor all night long!  It was definitely one for the books and I am so happy to have been a part of such a special day for such a wonderful couple.  Thank you for letting me be involved!! XOXO

Enjoy these photos I took before the festivities began!

Is this a new bar?  NOPE!  It's just been re-purposed! 
Doesn't it look great?  Thanks, John!



Happy Hour -The Island Way!

It's been a quiet few weekends here at the Community Center.  We have stayed busy during the week with a few events for the Seniors - "Ask the Physical Therapist" with Joe from Tidewater and "Accessible Gardening" with the Sussex County Master Gardeners.  Both were great events with very good turn out and we will be holding both again in the coming months. 

So, to fill in a little space here this week, CHEER has a big fundraising event coming up on Wednesday, September 28th from 4pm-7pm at the Community Center in Georgetown.  Tickets are being sold at $25 per person.  We are also selling sponsorship "Birthday Candles" at $500.  Our goal is to raise $20,000 for the CHEER Foundation in order to continue offering the best services possible to the 50+ community of Sussex County.  For more information please contact Dave, his information is listed below on the ad, or stop by the CCC and see me, Stacy, to purchase your tickets!

"Holy Guestlist Batman"

One of the amazing people I have the honor of knowing is getting married next April and today on Facebook she had the best comment.  I had to post this.  It is so important to keep a positive attitude and remember why you are having a wedding.  It's all about love, laughter and happily ever after and sharing the most amazing day of your life with the most amazing people you know.  Enjoy!
