Matheny Wedding 10/19/2024
My husband celebrated our 25th Anniversary Vow Renewals at the World Equestrian Center Chapel with a reception at Expo 2. Everything was magical!
Still reliving the fairytale as the team at WEC is beyond fantastic!
She made sure any dietary allergy needs were followed while working with the amazing banquet team of the World Equestrian Center. While guests ate dinner there was barely a sound- the food was the best food anyone had ever had, and all plates were finished. We have friends and family continuing to rave about the incredible food we know to be served only at WEC. We have so many memories from 5ks and events we have attended at WEC prior to our big day which made having our wedding there all the more special. The staff at the Riding Academy, where many guests stayed, and the whole wedding team are all the kindest and such hardworking individuals! Connie and Daniel who greeted guests at the new hotel were fabulous.
Like the meal and dessert, the cake was delicious. Yohann is extremely passionate about what he does and it shows. We look forward to eating the rest on our one-year anniversary! A huge thank you again to everyone at WEC! They all really care about what they do and will only provide the best.
