FRANKLIN

July 13, 2019, at 4 o’clock in the afternoon was a beautiful time for a wedding on the greens of Cypress Cove Country Club. That was the day Kristy Thomas and Darryl Cotton chose to be united in marriage by the Rev. Nathan Decker, pastor of High Street United Methodist Church on Camp Parkway.

The bride wore a white cap sleeve-chiffon split in the front of the dress with a scalloped edge veil decorated with crystal beads.

Kristy’s attendant was Mrs. Stacey Drake, matron of honor and also sister of the bride. Bridesmaids were Miss Shakyra Cotton, sister of the groom; and Miss Julia Makela and Mrs. Spring Harris, friends of the bride. They wore Malibu blue dresses.

The flower girl was Emery Velasquez, and her dress was a mini-version of the bride’s gown.

The groom’s attendant was Mr. Harold Taylor, best man and uncle of the groom. The groomsmen were Mr. Leonard Carter, uncle of the groom; and Mr. John Nicholls and Mr. Kameron Spruill, friends of the groom.

The ring bearer was Jaiden Carter.

Mistress of ceremonies was Ms. Lisa Lassiter, cousin of the bride. Guest book attendant was Miss Zoey Harris, and the program attendant was Miss Meadow Harris. The DJ was Mr. Will Hart.

A floating bridal shower was given to Kristy on June 29, 2019, by Ms. Maggie Swain and Mrs. Susan Story.

After a honeymoon to Walt Disney World in Florida, Kristy and Darryl will be residing in North Suffolk.
