July 2nd, 2009Marriage at Ratzeputz

The CEO and owner of the company, Mrs. Sieglinde Weidmann and Mr. Volker Rieckmann have married on May 29th 2009 at the register office in Hermannsburg.
Of course the motto for the whole event was "Ratzeputz". The bride and the bridegroom where mainly dressed in red an black and also the "Ratzeputz" car was a part of the event. Besides the floral ornaments from Blumen und Schöne Dinge owned by Herma Hamers in Hermannsburg, who also added a highlight in her café when she created the Ratzepzu wedding cake, the Ratzeputz car was the eyecatcher.
After the wedding ceremony the newly married couple and their guests had an excellent wedding lunch at Landgasthof Helms.
