Since we met and dated while undergraduates at SU we knew that Hendricks Chapel was the perfect place for us to have our wedding ceremony. The help that we received from Elizabeth Cronk took much of the stress out of planning our wedding from the West Coast in just three months. She referred us to possible officiants, florists, photographers, and an organist which helped us with the long distance planning. We were provided with a wedding coordinator who was there the day of the wedding to make sure that everything ran smoothly. Elizabeth played a key role in making our wedding a day that we and our guests will always remember. She was easy to work with, responsive, and organized and we can't thank her enough for her help.
