Allie & Kane’s reception at River Crest Country Club in Fort Worth was the perfect reflection of their style: timeless, elegant, and full of heart.

This was my first time photographing a wedding at River Crest, and I was instantly taken with the ballroom’s grandeur, the impeccable staff, and the overall guest experience. It was the ideal setting for a classic black-tie celebration—with every detail beautifully executed by Tami Winn Events.

Tami’s team transformed the space with custom gold dance floors, lush hedge walls, and personalized signage. A cozy outdoor lounge welcomed guests, while a gospel choir from Absolute Entertainment filled cocktail hour with soulful harmonies.

As the sun set, Downtown Fever kicked off the reception with a high-energy entrance for the bride and groom. Allie & Kane spent the evening side-by-side—either dancing, hugging lifelong friends, or catching up with family. The atmosphere was electric, joyful, and deeply connected. And if spilled drinks are any sign of a good time—this was one incredible party!

As the night ended, guests cheered as we sent the newlyweds off to their honeymoon in Thailand, hearts full and feet sore.

Personally, one of the most touching moments of the day came when Allie’s little sister asked me what my favorite part of the wedding was. My answer? God—His presence was woven through every part of the day, from the tears during the vows to the laughter on the dance floor. It was a privilege to witness.
