Order up! Ohio diner serves up wedding ceremony

[December 15, 2010]  MARSHALLVILLE, Ohio (AP) -- Guests sat in booths, not church pews, for a wedding at an Ohio diner where the bride and groom often go for breakfast.

Tim Shoenfelt proposed to Hallie Richwine in March in the parking lot of Deb's Heavenly Hash Diner in Marshallville, 40 miles south of Cleveland. They returned Saturday to exchange vows there.

The new wife tells The Daily Record of Wooster (WU'-stur) the diner seemed like the perfect wedding spot because it's one of their favorite places.

She met her husband 12 years ago at the University of Akron. They left the area for jobs in other states but eventually returned to northeast Ohio and reconnected in 2008.

The diner closed early for the ceremony. Owner Debbie Grayson took breakfast orders from the guests.
