It was a happily ever after fairytale that began with quite a memorable morning! Despite a busy performance schedule as a classical singer, Matthew knew he wanted to find time to pop the question to Chelsey, the love of his life. In the fall of 2012, while performing in New Orleans, Chelsey had come to visit for a week-end and Matt established grand plans of proposing at a world renowned restaurant while she was there. However, excitement and anxiety seemed to take over suddenly that weekend and Matt woke up and rushed down to the hotel safe deposit box to get the ring. He excitedly led Chelsey out to the quiet courtyard that morning where he knelt down on one knee and proposed…both of them still in their pajamas!
The bride is the daughter of Charlie and Susan Sarnecky of New Fairfield. Chelsey works as a legislative associate at Connecticut Conference of Municipalities, with a focus on the committees of energy & technology, public health, education & aging.
The groom is the son of Ralph and Brenda Worth, of West Hartford, both retired local school teachers. Matt is a classical singer who sings with some of the world’s leading opera companies and orchestras.
The September wedding was held at First Church of Christ in West Hartford, officiated by the couple’s close friend, spiritual director and minister, Susan Izard. Matt has been a lifelong member of the church and the couple remains active in the parish. A reception followed at West Hartford Town Hall, where guests danced the night away to the music of The LaBlanc Brothers band.
