Raul and Michelle were married at the Red Lion Hotel in Salem on October 18, 2009. Being an inside wedding, they met the photographer earlier in the day to take some outside photos as well. It was raining in the morning, but cleared up in time for pictures and it was nice weather the rest of the day. Both Raul and Michelle were very ready to get married! Michelle could not stop laughing, smiling, and admiring her soon to be husband.During the ceremony Raul and Michelle placed a single rose in the front row to represent loved ones that could not be there that day. It was very touching and the families really appreciated the gesture. At the reception the guests enjoyed a beautiful cake and Raul's son danced (and sung) to all the music playing. He, along with his two new sisters, were the life of the party on the dance floor!
The red colors really set the mood for a romantic wedding, as did the floating candles in the centerpieces. Being close to Halloween, and being big fans of skulls, the bride and groom incorporated them into the theme of their wedding. They had little skull rings for the guests, and the kids just went crazy for them! Michelle was a DIY (Do-It-Yourself) Bride and she put a lot of effort into making this wedding personal and fun for their families and guests. She glued all of the ribbons onto the centerpieces, made each wedding favor, and made "M" and "G" monograms for the entry door, just to name a few. Congrats Raul and Michelle (and your precious kids)!
