The Sterling Ballroom wedding venue in the DoubleTree Tinton Falls Eatontown NJ is so proud and honored that we have been chosen for a real weddings spread in Contemporary Bride!

It’s truly an honor when one of our couples gets chosen to be featured. Our staff works so hard to make the day beautiful for the couple, and we love for them to have an extra moment to shine.

This couple in particular really showed us that romance is not dead. KSS Photography made sure to catch every moment so that Caitlyn and Keith can relive their wedding for years to come.

Caitlyn and Keith met in college, were flirty friends, but never actually dated until two years after graduating.

Keith joined the Airforce, and was stationed down in Pennsicola, Florida. Caitlyn had planned a trip to go see him, but the flight ran into complications so she missed her layover in Atlanta, and she was going to be delayed in seeing her love.

Keith could not stay away for another second, so he drove to Atlanta and greeted Caitlyn with a bottle of champagne, cheese, and crackers. (We know, adorable!)

While Caitlyn was fumbling around with the champagne bottle, Keith dropped down to one knee and proposed right there.

As if that wasn’t romantic enough, Keith and Caitlyn wrote their own vows, which they exchanged in private, to solidify that their vows were theirs and that the bond between them was understood and respected by both parties.

For the guests, Caitlyn and Keith had Chocolate Carousel design their cake which was absolutely beautiful!

After the wedding, this couple had to sadly separate. Caitlyn works as a high school math teacher, and Keith is still waiting on his wings.

“We are counting down the days until we can finally live together,” Caitlyn said.

This wedding had everyone sighing in awe, the bond between these two is evident. May their love be forever celebrated!
