Curt and Angela at Timberline Lodge


I am off to another wedding, so I will update this later. What a great place to get married!
UPDATE:
Timberline Lodge on Oregon's Mt. Hood was an incredible setting for Curt and Angela's wedding. The lodge, built in 1937, is located about half-way up the mountain, with an incredible view of the summit. The couple said their "I-do's" on the back patio of the lodge, with the guests in full view of the mountain. After the ceremony, the party moved indoors to the lodge's banquet facility which has both a view of the mountain, as well as the valley. After a mad scramble to find a D.J. by the lodge staff (the one hired by Curt and Angela never showed up!), the party was soon in full swing.

David and Jennifer

David (D.J.) and Jennifer were married in a simple, elegant ceremony at Jennifer's family home. Jennifer had invited her aunt, Sue Opton, to photograph the wedding, but aunt Sue chose to be a guest instead. It was Jennifer's aunt who sought us out and gave the recommendation to Jennifer and D.J. It is incredible flattering to be chosen by another photographer, but also a little nerve racking (we all have our insecurities!).
When the toasts were over, Jennifer told the crowd a wonderfully story about being stuck in a traffic-jam and having a mini-breakdown while on the phone with D.J. When they got off the phone D.J. ran the 3-4 miles from home to find Jennifer in the middle of the freeway stuck in the traffic and sit with her. What a guy!
The reception was catered by an old friend of Jennifer's family, Harvey's Comedy Club, and they did an incredible job of it. Jennifer and her mother, Jan (try to keep that straight!) had decorated the trees with colorful paper laterns and scattered thousands of multi-colored rose petals all over the grounds.
