Grand Volute Ballrooms

By emulnix | Published April 27, 2008

Wow! Brandon and I had the honor of attending last night’s private black tie event at the brand new Grand Volute Ballrooms here in Lowell. Every detail and every inch of the ballrooms was carefully considered and crafted. From the chandeliers to the hand woven carpet, the air wall to the bar cooling system, every minute detail, seen and unseen. There are plenty of enamoring words to describe it’s unbelievable perfection, some chosen ones overheard throughout the night were ‘Gorgeous’, ‘Beautiful’, ‘Amazing’, ‘Superb’, ‘Awesome’, ‘Wow’, ‘Phenomenal’, but none of them compare to actually seeing first hand.

As the President of the West Michigan Wedding Association, preferred photographer, and friend of Mr. Kent McKay, owner of the Grand Volute Ballrooms, it was Brandon’s honor to be asked to do the very first toast. Brandon captured the guests attention and delivered a toast with graceful finesse, to which everyone raised their champagne glasses with a Salut!

Here we are all dressed up in front of the Grand Staircase in the foyer. It was simply a beautiful evening.

After posting the last couple of projects about the most beautiful generation it was brought to my attention that I didn’t include someone. Here is a photograph of my Grandma. She is not at Fountain View, but still has a precious place in my family’s heart.

Just because I cant Remember…..

“Just because I can’t Remember doesn’t mean I want to be forgotten”
Today I finished up my project at Fountain View. This one was the hardest. The memory care unit is where the patients with severe dementia and Alzheimer’s reside. The saddest part for me was the three residents we couldn’t photograph.
I warn you.. You might need Kleenex.
