Like Real People Do!

Claire and Zachariah celebrated their big day at The Covenant at Murray Mansion, and SSE was thrilled to be a part of it!  We had a chance to meet the happy couple at Culinary Infusion’s menu tasting several months ago.  Since then, we’ve been collaborating together and making plans for their epic celebration!  Officiant Mike Olson did a fantastic job leading the service filled with faith, love, and so many special moments.  Guests enjoyed custom beverages and a delicious charcuterie spread during the cocktail hour in Murray Mansion.  When everyone made their way back to the Covenant for dinner service, the celebration space was transformed for the festivities to come.  Toasts from the wedding party were heartfelt and memorable, including a very special presentation from Claire’s Dad, Dan. Dan’s surprises kept coming during a choreographed Father/Daughter dance which brought the house down!  We filled the dance floor with songs from every genre, and guests cooled off with ice cream treats later in the night.  As the event wrapped up, we sent off the newlyweds with an unforgettable sparkler exit!  Big thanks to Maddie, Hannah, Keith, Steve, Nick, Eli, Isabelle, and the entire crew from The Covenant for an unforgettable night.  Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Kline!

Dan Bailey Memorial Clays Event!

Wisconsin Sportsman’s Association in Union Grove was the site of the 4th Annual Dan Bailey Memorial Clays Event!  Dan was a tireless supporter of the Pacer Patrons at Shoreland Lutheran High School.  He worked hard to lead by example and was instrumental in getting the annual clays shoot up and running several years ago.  Now named in his memory, the event continues with the support of several volunteers and the Bailey family.  Participants enjoyed beautiful weather and sunny skies as they headed to the range to test their skills!  Several local businesses donated generous raffle prizes and helped our fundraising greatly.  Big thanks to Ryan, Al, Ronda, Lauri, the entire Bailey crew, and everyone who came out to make this event a big success!

Dancing In The Moonlight!

Roxanne and Justin celebrated their wedding with a beautiful backyard ceremony and reception, and SSE was thrilled to be a part of it!  As guests settled in for the touching service, the wedding party made their unforgettable entrance.  After the vows, everyone had a chance to mingle and cool off with some chilled beverages.  The catering team did a great job with the service stations and gave us the fuel we needed to dance the night away.  Our bride is an accomplished singer and brought the house down by performing some of her favorites!  Big thanks to Brian and Shawna for opening up their home, and for their continued hospitality and kindness.  It was a team effort all the way around, and we worked up a sweat “Dancing in the Moonlight!”  Big congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Vanderheyden!
