The American Hero Wedding Giveaway, hosted by Studio 40 Live and made possible by an awesome team of local vendors, was an amazing opportunity for us to give back to an American Hero who gives so much to the community on a daily basis.
Members of the Military and first responders were asked to enter the American Hero Wedding Giveaway, and Lyssa and Fabian Gomez were announced the winners! Lyssa has been a police officer for about 9 years, and currently works in Davis. Lyssa met Fabian 12 years ago and they’ve been happily married since 2010. They were excited to win the grand prize to finally get the wedding ceremony they’ve always wanted.
The grand prize included a year’s worth of groceries at Grocery Outlet, a new checking account with a $500 opening deposit at Sierra Central Credit Union, a $25,000 credit toward any car at the Elk Grove Auto Mall, and a televised wedding ceremony and reception for up to 50 people at The Willow Ballroom, with catering provided by Randy Peters Catering, flowers provided by Pottery World, a wedding gown provided by Elegant Designs Bridal, wedding ring and bands provided by Windsor Diamonds, and decorations and tableware provided by Celebrations.
All of these local vendors, Studio 40 Live, and some of the couple’s closest family and friends came together to create a truly magical day for an American Hero. We loved seeing everyone’s smiling, joyful, and sometimes teary-eyed faces throughout the event and are very thankful that we could be a part of this moment that Lyssa and Fabian will remember forever!
The wedding ceremony and reception aired on Studio 40 Live on July 7. Click here to see the video. You can also see more photos from the event, including some behind-the-scenes shots, here.
