...created for Karim & Patty.
Sitting just a few blocks off Hwy 67 in Duncanville is one of those sparkling gems that more people need to know about. Enchanted Memories On The Hill is a wedding and reception venue that was designed and built to be just what it is. Opened about six years ago, it is owned and operated by Earnest and JoDee Wilson. Interestingly, the very first wedding rehearsal in the facility was for Earnest and JoDee and I had the priviledge of conducting that rehearsal. The building sits amidst lush vegetation and is perhaps best known for it's peaceful back garden and gazebo, the site of many wedding ceremonies. JoDee serves as wedding coordinator, along with the many staff members attentive to every single detail.
Patty and Karim elected the inviting chapel inside as the site for their ceremony. Patty chose pink for the Valentine's Day wedding, so that her bridesmaids were attired in pastels and hot pinks. The bride's sister was matron of honor and her niece was one of the bridesmaids. Fortunately, a couple of pink ties hang in my closet so I was able to coordinate with the chosen colors.
DJ duties for the evening were handled by Ken Savage , a veteran of CBS radio, not to mention that he has his own 8 piece band where he can show off his years of experience as a rock & blues guitarist. If you ever get the chance to see Ken Savage and the Best Kept Secret, do it--the horn section alone will blow you away!
My thanks to Robbin, who provided me the pictures taken during the ceremony. Check out the pic of me holding the flower girl--I think she had more fun than any of us during the ceremony; and look closely at the ceremony picture--one of the ring bearers decided to take a little siesta during the ceremony. He got up just in time for the recessional.
Blessings,
Ken
