Catherine and Tim Wed at Doubletree Suites!

"As autumn leaves turn their brilliant hue, two hearts will join and say I do." A quote from the wedding program for Tim and Catherine who were married on Sunday October 4th, 2009. It was a beautiful wedding. "Red weddings" are always so striking with the contrast of red and white. It was a beautiful day with a pleasant breeze and overcast skies which were perfect for good photos.

Here Tim and I enter and take our places followed by the Best Man and groomsmen.

Here comes our beautiful bride and her proud father. Catherine was so lovely in her gorgeous bridal gown as she floated down the aisle. I noticed Tim's eyes filling with tears as he watched her come toward him with her eyes locked on his.

Catherine and Tim created a lovely ceremony from my material that fit exactly what they wanted on their wedding day.

The happy couple, now married, making their way down the aisle!

We took photos down the way at the waterfall area. The background of the water and the woods make a stunning setting for pictures. Catherine and Tim, many congratulations!

I am not sure Catherine felt real comfortable being out in the middle on the slabs with the water rushing under them! But she was a good sport and I know our photographer got some fabulous shots.

Our Vendors:

Lenny Fritts of Touch of Class DJs was not only our DJ and provided music for both the ceremony and the reception and plugged my mic into his system, but he also was our wedding director. Lenny has been part of so many weddings, he knows precisely how the processional is to go. He is a Pro! Thanks, Lenny.

Amy Acosta, Events Manager, at Doubletree Suites was on hand at the rehearsal and the wedding to make sure everything flowed smoothly. The hotel caters weddings.

Our photographer was Janell Register of Reflections Photography. I know she got some great shots, especially at the waterfall. I am going to be checking her website out to see them.

The florist was Tre Bella in Durham. The floral arrangements on the arbor at the altar were gorgeous and so were the bouquets, boutonnieres, and flowers on the tables.

Their lovely wedding cake was by Simply Cakes. It was beautiful.

At Doubletree Suites the receptions are held in a huge tent next to the patio, deck and lake. It is heated and air-conditioned so it is always comfortable. The white with red touches made a striking setting for a festive wedding celebration.
