George--

Several years ago, friends of ours won a contest sponsored by a mall in Richmond ( Chesterfield, I believe) to put on a wedding for them (soup to nuts) in the mall. I sang for the wedding. May be able to get more info if needed. Good luck to the happy couple!

Editor's Note: After receiving numerous requests for advice in response to an article on Wedding Sponsors [which is posted on my site], I offered to assist in finding out more information about the process.

If you have comments about how people might go about paying for their weddings and/or about commercial sponsorship, please send them to george@loper.org where the most representative will be posted on my website with full attribution.
