Lafayette Hill, PA (September 24, 2007) - One picture can speak volumes. And based on the photos from the 28th Annual West Chester Restaurant Festival, Michael Anthony Homes made quite an impression. The Festival, graced by a gorgeous day in historic downtown West Chester, saw thousands come to sample cuisine from the local eateries.

In addition to being a festival sponsor, Michael Anthony Homes had a booth at the September 16th event, complete with the usual information about their homes and communities, but also featuring a wedding cake and a bride and groom! The "happy couple" - attired in the requisite white gown and tuxedo - made their way through the crowds, giving out wedding-style invitations which asked people to visit the Michael Anthony booth to sample wedding cake and to register for a chance to win a cash prize. There was also a bride & groom "cut-out" with which people posed and had their photographs taken.

The theme of the booth, "Picture Yourself Living Here", appealed to newlyweds and Baby Boomers alike, with all comers checking out the picture perfect homes built by Michael Anthony Homes. The bride and groom were a hit, encouraging more than a few festival patrons to picture themselves living in a Michael Anthony home.
