Opportunity Place Hosts First Wedding
October 31,
2009:
Two shelter residents, who have long been in love, celebrated their union at Opportunity Place. The mother of the bride decorated our facility (we'll have to have her back at Christmas - it was amazing), the Mental Health Association covered the license costs,
Board of Directors Member Gloria Battle handled the flowers, and Martin Fancher officiated. A resident provided vocals, a thrift store donated the dress, and
Board of Directors member Duane St. John provided the reception food. It was one of the loveliest, most joyful weddings I have attended. The facility was so lovely we thought perhaps we should start advertising as a wedding venue.
In our short four months of operation, we have seen the full play of life - from newborns, to children heading off to their first day of school, to school graduations, a wedding, illness, and a valued and loved residents facing his last days. It is an honor to be part of this program, providing help through not just our own staff, but from a wide circle of friends and partner organizations.
