Congratulations!
What a great wedding! Congratulations Rhonda and Michael. Library weddings really reinforce the community nature of libraries. I am a fellow “Married in the Library” librarian. As my school newspaper represented it- ” The bride-to-be made her way down the circular staircase and both the bride and groom were taken out of circulation at the ceremony which appropriately took place in front of the circulation desk.” Welcome to the club! Best wishes to both of you for happiness and prosperity together! See you in Dallas.
Congratulations!
Rhonda (and Michael) - I was so pleasantly surprised to see your wedding in American Libraries! What a lovely wedding and what a great idea. I hope to see you in Dallas. Cindy from New Jersey
