I’ve known Renee for several years from working at Wal-mart. When I first met her she was quiet and kept to herself. It didn’t take long to discover her goofy side that I love so much. I met Renee at a time that we were both going through our own individual ‘tough spots’ and she was hugely responsible for keeping me sane and bringing me up when I was down. Likewise I was there to witness the knight and shining armor, Owen sweep her off her feet and make her troubles melt away. It was beautiful watching the two form their relationship and how they helped bring out the absolute best in each other. Renee’s always been a tough cookie, but with Owen I felt she was safe and she could let that guard down for a while. I’m very proud to call these two my friends.
This month I had the privilege and honor of being a part of Owen and Renee’s wedding day. It was inspiring seeing so many friends come together and contribute to Owen and Renee’s wedding day. It’s obvious that everyone else can see the extraordinary love that Owen and Renee share for one another. It’s that love that people cheer for and celebrate.
These past few months of helping plan the wedding I’ve gotten to know their friends and It’s been a pleasure meeting everyone and getting close to them. It’s obvious that good people surround themselves with equally good people.
I’d like to say thank you to everyone at Brew Works and Marielle for their amazing efforts in making this event come together. A heartfelt thanks especially goes out to Linda, Scott and Jessalyn for all the hours they put in, making Owen and Renee’s ceremony and reception beautiful. Another thank you to Sarah Swartz for being a totally awesome person in general and her help with the decorations, planning and wedding dress. Lastly, thank you to everyone who helped put this day together for Owen and Rene
Congrats Owen and Renee and I wish you the best in your future together!
