Soldiers Wedding Night Ruined


On Saturday August 14, 2004 Kenny Lovell III and Michelle Lowman of Hamilton, Illinois were united in marriage. Kenny chose to wed his bride before being deployed to Iraq to serve our country. The wedding was beautiful. The fairy tale ceremony ended with the soldier and his bride riding off together in horse drawn carriage to the reception hall where all family and friends would celebrate their special day.

After the reception the couple would be off to their honeymoon suite at the Fairfield Inn Keokuk, Iowa. The room was a “spa” room that had been decorated earlier in the day by family and friends. It was covered with 8-dozen roses and candles galore, a true picture of romance.

But the fairy tale wedding ended when the soldier and his bride arrived at the hotel and were told that their room had been given away.

The picture perfect wedding’s final piece of the puzzle was given away, flowers, candles and all. The Soldier and his bride had nowhere to go. The Fairfield Inn of Keokuk, Iowa, a Marriott corporate hotel did not offer them another room, any alternatives, nothing. They were literally turned away in their wedding clothes.

The bridal party tried to retrieve the 8-dozen roses and candles, but the hotel wouldn’t allow it, they would have to wait till the next morning so the current customers of the honeymoon room would not be disturbed.

How nice it must of have been for those customers. Imagine, paying for a room to find it decorated. Apparently they enjoyed themselves as they used the candles.

As you read this e-mail, please think about this couple. This man is going to serve our country in Iraq within days. The wedding day, one of the most special days of this couple’s life, ruined because Fairfield Inn chose to give the decorated room away because the couple did not check in by 6 pm. (and there are a few other cheap excuses they have came up with to justify their decision, but that is the best one so far.)

What has Fairfield Inn done so far to redeem their injustice to this couple? They were allowed to retrieve the 8-dozen roses and the burnt candles.

I ask you to please add your name to this list and send this to everyone you know and forward this on to the Fairfield Inn Marriott. They will NOT get my business, unless they do something for this couple to right their wrong
