It was our pleasure to host the Dec. 21
wedding of Diana and Aaron Rolfsrud.
The excitement began with the rental of our community room for the service, and arrangements made for a huge "Kings Table" in our great room. The bride's vision for her winter wedding was magnificent, and came together expertly under her competent direction, despite the hobbled assistance from the groom, who had conveniently sprained his ankle prior to the event.
Loved ones gathered promptly that Sunday afternoon with great anticipation, dressed for the forever photos that would record the event for generations.
Both immediate families were present at the small ceremony, with a larger common reception to be announced later this year to celebrate the union. A catered dinner followed the service with 20 adults at one table as well as a "kids table" that accommodated the flower girls.
Toasts were exchanged, wishes were made, friendships cemented. A most memorable event.
A senior gentleman from central casting officiated, his gray hair and sweeping mustache giving a classy and august presence. They united under a nuptial arch designed and carried out by the bride. Vows were exchanged, with the bride admitting to overcoming early "red flags" in their relationship. For his part, Aaron said he had never been more sure of this decision to spend the balance of his life with her.
We are so pleased to enlarge our extended family with Diana's relatives and friends, a substantial faction giving Aaron a wonderful depth of support. We are very pleased as well with his bride, no one better for Aaron. . . or us.
