TAYLORS, SC – For the first time in FATZ® history of 23 years, the restaurants are excited to host the wedding of locals Tonya Braddy and Steven Steinbach at the 2715 Watson Blvd location in Warner Robins, Ga. On Oct. 8, 2011, from 10 – 11 a.m., the couple will exchange vows at the restaurant where their love began.
The last thing Tonya and Steven
expected on June 19, 2010, was to fall in love on their first date
at FATZ® in the corner bar booth. Four-and-a-half hours later, a
few shift changes and an extremely friendly staff, the two had the
best date ever. Since then, they sit in that same booth every time
they eat at FATZ® and are reminded of the wonderful night they met.
When Steven proposed, and Tonya said yes, the wedding plans
started. Since FATZ® holds such a special place in both of their
hearts, they couldnʼt think of better place to have a wedding.
General Manager David Shaver was on
vacation when he received the call that someone wanted to have a
wedding at FATZ®. He was so thrilled, he called Tonya immediately
and said, "We would love to host your wedding, when do you want to
do it?" The FATZ® staff has been extremely accommodating in Steven
and Tonyaʼs celebration planning.
The wedding party includes son of the bride, Braylon Braddy,
walking Tonya down the aisle, daughter of the bride and maid of
honor, Courtney Braddy; daughter of the groom and flower girl, Lily
Steinbach; and best man, Rodney Black. The reception will follow
immediately after the ceremony with lunch; the dining area will
open be at regular hours of operation.
FATZ® started with humble
beginnings in 1988, in Spartanburg, SC, and spread from one peach
shed to a sensation across the Southeast with its varied,
reasonably priced menu, ample portions of quality food and upbeat
service in a comfortable atmosphere. Today FATZ® still believes in
the same ideals that originated in that fruit stand 23 years ago
and strives to deliver warm, friendly service with housemade,
quality ingredients to create a "home away from home" for every
guest that walks through the door.
