WEST BLOOMFIELD — At All Seasons West Bloomfield, a heartwarming commitment ceremony recently celebrated the love and unity of two beloved residents. The bride and groom, who have been cherished members of the community for nearly a decade, have shared a loving relationship for the past eight years, forming a friendship while at the community.

Inspired by the movie Queen Bees, they decided to solidify their bond with a commitment ceremony that brought together family, friends, and fellow residents in a truly memorable event.

The ceremony was a touching tribute to family and tradition. The bride’s son took on the special role of officiant, and the grandkids carried sunflowers down the aisle, where each bloom symbolized a grandparent who had passed away. The flowers were gathered into a bouquet, representing the enduring presence of family even in their absence. The emotional moment was further enhanced by a grandson who, as a talented musician, played the guitar and sang while the grandchildren walked down the aisle.

Residents of All Seasons West Bloomfield were invited to the ceremony, and to join the celebration afterwards in the community’s bistro. They enjoyed an array of appetizers, punch, and delightful homemade initial cookies. Meanwhile, the families of the bride and groom gathered in one of All Season’s private dining rooms for a celebratory brunch.

Expressing their deep gratitude, the couple reflected on their journey, saying, “We can’t imagine our wedding being anywhere else—this is where we met, fell in love, and are living our lives.”
