They decided to see each other before the ceremony so the whole day was pretty laid back and we had plenty of time to do pictures before the ceremony which is usually how it goes when the wedding day is scheduled this way. The golf club has a ton of great locations for photography and we were able to take advantage of the great weather and work outside quite a bit.

After the ceremony we went right into the party and man did they party. It was an awesome reception and the dance floor was packed almost all night right till the end. Kim and I were glad they asked us to be a part of their wedding day and we had a great time being there – we felt just like family (haha, bad joke).

Don't you dare touch my bottle!

Looks like a photographer in the making.

Cat & Tim flew Kim and I down to North Caroline this past weekend and we got to spend a couple of additional days hanging out and catching up with family which was also great. We got to tag along at the rehearsal dinner which was mildly amusing to see how nervous they were. You could definitely tell they were excited but at the same time just looking to get through it all and get to the party. As all of us who have planned a wedding can attest it can certainly be a stressful period but Cat and Tim took it all in stride and kept moving forward.

The wedding reception was at the same hotel that we were staying in so that made things really easy and Cat even got ready at the hotel. Kim and I met up with her a bit before all her girls arrived and Kim did her thing capturing all the details only the way she can (way better than me). As Cat’s mother and her bridesmaids started to arrive we had a great time photographing them while they were getting ready and I certainly enjoyed the humor (and the southern accents didn’t hurt). From the hotel Kim and I got to hop in the limo with the wedding party to head over to the Main Post Chapel at Ft. Bragg. It was a beautiful chapel and they had a short and sweet ceremony which we followed up with some family pics and some photos of Cat and Tim on the grounds outside the chapel. It was the only spot in the whole area with green grass, I still don’t know how they did that.

Again we all hopped in the limo to head back to the hotel for the reception. It was a nice change because Kim and I got to sit down and act more like guests than we normally do so it was a bit more relaxing. We still got a ton of great candid moments at the reception and overall I had a wonderful day with all the family and both Cat and Tim.

Tim, thanks so much for including me on your big day. It was really great to see you again and it’s just like the good old times hanging out with you again. Cat, it was great to see you again and even better getting to know you a bit more, even though the trip was still a little short. Thank you again for the trip and congrats to you both and we wish you a long happy life together. Now on to some photos.

Leigh was such a beautiful bride and Dave was an awesome groom and when we got the two of them together, well, you can see below, they just adore each other. I love to get fun, laughing photos, but I really love the romantic, “can’t stop touching each other” photos even more, which they performed flawlessly. From getting ready to the reception, everything was held at the gorgeous Plymouth Meeting Country Club. After portraits and the ceremony we went right into the reception which was beautiful. I was having a lot of fun playing around with the strobe light and Leigh was having fun with the microphone!

Thank you everybody who made us feel like part of the wedding and to the rocking bridal party, you guys were awesome. Thanks again Leigh and Dave for being such a great couple and having Kim and I join you on your wedding day, it was a blast. There is also something a little different at the bottom.

Leigh (the bride) was singing her ass off, it was great
