(978)866-9872. Sept was the Fleming wedding. It was in Lexington MA , and was very intimate. The couple, families, and wedding party had pictures taken at The Old North Bridge in Concord after the ceremony. How lovely! While they were having pictures taken, a group of 50 or so Japanese tourist came up the path and the newlyweds had a picture taken with them! You just have to LOVE moments like these. I'm sure the tourists will always remember this part of their trip to Concord and the newlyweds will cherish it forever!October is here now, and the cold weather has made an early unwelcome arrival! Autumn is such a great time of year for a wedding. October started out with the wedding of my brother Gerry & Donna- FINALLY! They have been together for almost 21 yrs. and tied the knot Friday October 9 2009. I had the honor of officiating:)They took a Fl honeymoon Donna won on the radio. What a great way to start a marriage!It was very intimate, with immediate family and a few friends. We danced the night away~ lots of fun. Pic's are posted on this site.Oct is the 3rd anniversary of my cousin Tim & Candice and the 1st anniversary of cousin Caitlyn & Brian. Happy anniversary to them!The next wedding coming up is of Lisa & John. My last August bride Katrina recommended WE DO WEDDINGS to them. Thanks Fifi (Katrina)! We also married her aunt this past May.Lisa & John are getting married on Halloween night. HOW fun is THAT? ! The wedding theme is Halloween and we are all dressing up in costume. I can hardly wait!I am officiating in my Black Widow Spider costume and the Bride and Groom are Vampires! Pics will be posted!Lastly, lets talk fall weddings. What a wonderful time of year to get married! Nature's backdrop in pictures just can't be beat this time of year. Flowers are plentiful in fall indoors and outdoors too. You can go from an array of subtle to very bright natural flowers. ( sunflowers, mums )The colors most favored are golds, yellows, greens, browns, reds, cranberries, and oranges. All look beautiful in clothing and decor. There are also many creative things to use during the fall. Pumpkins can be used as bowls, candle holders, and centerpieces. You can use gourds to decorate your tables, raffia in your bouquets, corn husks and Indian corn in your decor. Gourds also make lovely candle displays. Leaves can be incorporated on your tables, in your bouquets, in your napkins, and on arbors. Your flower girl might want to drop you a soft path of colorful leaves. They also look great when placed on branches as your place cards! Halloween is also a fun time for anything goes! Spiders, skeletons, ghost, cauldrons of hot cider, candy apples, candy corn etc. Each guest can take home a "treat" bag. Dress up or traditional, it can be lots of fun. Just let us help you design your "dream wedding" and WE DO the rest! Happy Planning

Kathleen is now a Certified Sandals Specialist! Sandals/ Beaches luxury resorts are absolutely beautiful! Sandals is for couples and Beaches for singles or families. There's something for everyone! I was fortunate enough to attend a fam visit with 20 wedding professionals from all over the U.S. Sept 21-25. It gave me the unique position of being a guest and an observer. I was impressed with the attention to detail that I saw, the care in which things were done, the kindness of anyone I dealt with or observed with others. I "interviewed" other guest, repeat guest, guest who were married there, guest who renewed vows, first time guest and not one had anything negative to say.I would also like you all to know that there are BFF girlfriend getaway's, Group getaways* YES golfers.. you are included, family and single getaway's. The golf course we visited in Ocho Rios was beautiful. I even got to hit a few golf balls at the driving range and drove our Senior Sales Associate Troy(Flex) Haynes in a golf cart!The manager at the Sandals we stayed at in Ocho Rios, Mr Lewis Grant, was so welcoming and I observed him all over the resort, always smiling! He greeted folks, watched over staff, offered help, and even sang us a goodbye song when we departed.Have I piqued your interest?
