Raleigh Dunn Weld

Congratulations to Coach Raleigh Fitzsimmons, who married Jason Weld Saturday, February 9.

Last Monday, Raleigh's skaters, past and present, gathered to throw Raleigh a wedding shower. Thank you, Nicole Sela, for arranging this fabulous party!

All the girls wore bridal veils. Raleigh wore a t-shirt with "Bride" emblazoned across the front, as well as a Bride-to-be necklace. Glamour with a capital G.


Raleigh looks especially fetching in her veil


Delicious cake


And diamond rings for everyone!
