May 2nd, 2009, what a great day! The groomsmen were cracking me up. I was in the hotel room when the groom arrived and his grooms men had “The Final Countdown” ready and played it when he walked through the door. The girls had the penthouse suite on the top floor. The elevator doors opened and the double doors in front of me had a Tommy and Deneya banner on it. Music was playing and everybody was enjoying themselves. It was raining at this point so we went down to the hotel lobby and took some pictures with the girls and Bride’s family. The girls went back up to the room while we took pictures with the guys. The ceremony cathedral looked amazing with the cloud muted lite that was pouring through the stained glass windows. The rain had finally stopped and after the ceremony we were able to take some outdoor photos. The Double Tree Hotel always does a great job with the food and the reception hall was elegant. The flowers were put together by family as well as the stitched napkins at each table. This wedding was a collaboration of family. I love it when family comes together to make something magical happen. Here are just a few of my favorites.
