Selfless Service 1st Annual Fundraiser, July 2022

Selfless Service is a non-profit organization created to help Veterans, Active-Duty Military, First Responders, and their families. Their mission is to help these people who serve/d our Country for little to no cost. They have provided help from anything to fixing things around their homes, getting supplies, and so much more! If you’re interesting in learning more, would like to volunteer, attend fundraising events, or donate at anytime, please check out their website and/or social media!

July 2022 was their 1st ever largest fundraising event and it was STELLAR!!! Your ticket includes AYCE BBQ, drinks, entertainment, and fireworks! There was a super special performance too by Lou Gramm from Foreigner! I’m not exaggerating when I say, this is an annual fundraising event you don’t want to miss. The energy of everyone coming together to support their cause, people chatting and sharing stories, the good food and music…it’s a perfect summer night hangout. Below are just some highlights of night.

Thank you to Alyssa, and all her volunteers, Lou Capozzi, and anyone else involved who made the night possible!

Congratulations to the new
Mr and Mrs Overhiser!!!

They were married on September 25, 2021 at
Three Gables Barn in Carlisle, Pa.

Not only was it a gorgeous September day…John and Ashton planned a day full of surprises for their family and friends! The first was they had everyone convinced that they were not going to have an officiant, and instead unite themselves on their own. Ashton wanted to surprise her mother by having her cousin marrying them in honor of her late Uncle who died at war (her Mom’s brother). Her Mother’s smile said it all as you watched him approach the Bride and Groom. She really had no idea, and the rest of the ceremony was filled with many more smiles and laughter all around! Their vows were so personal with fun stories of the journey together.

Next on the schedule was the formal family pictures, the bridal party pictures with everyone together, and lastly pictures of just the Bride and Groom. We do their pictures last to allow them some time to just have a moment for themselves. It’s so important for couples to step away from the crowd, and look at each other and say “We did it!”.

When we got to the reception…the surprises continued!! John and Ashton told us they choreographed their own first dance and they did NOT disappoint! It was a whole compilation of different songs, but a personal fav is when their dance started with The Greatest Showman! Ashton and her Dad also choreographed their own dance that was hilarious with the “Welcome to the Griswolds” sign!

They finished their night by dancing with everyone which went strong until the night concluded!

Enjoy some of the highlights from their gallery. Congratulations again John and Ashton!
