Mary & Robert’s rehearsal dinner at Hotel Drover was more than just a kickoff to the weekend—it was a celebration in its own right. With soft blue tones, elegant rustic details, and so many heartfelt moments, this evening was planned with love from start to finish.

Mary looked stunning in an icy blue dress paired with white cowboy boots, a perfect nod to her personal style and the venue’s western-chic charm. Feathery floral accents by Blossoms on the Bricks added a whimsical, organic touch to the soft palette.

This evening was full of meaning, thanks to the thoughtful planning of Robert’s parents. From a custom photo guestbook and childhood shoes on display to printed koozies for the whole wedding weekend—every element felt intentional and deeply personal.

Guests were treated to a heartfelt slideshow and warm toasts, capped by a special video cameo from none other than legendary TCU football coach Gary Patterson—a moment that brought cheers, tears, and lots of Horned Frog pride.

Jennifer captured the celebration in all its joy and detail, balancing the elegance of the setting with the intimacy of each personal touch.

If you’re planning your own rehearsal dinner, Mary & Robert’s night is proof: the smallest things can make the biggest memories.
