Emilee & Jeff – Wedding Reception at the Modern Art MuseumFort Worth, Texas

November 19, 2016 Details

These two – swoon! This painting so perfectly explains them – they may have opted for a classic and elegant black and white color palette but Emilee & Jeff have such colorful personalities and when they are together they are so much in balance – just like this artwork!

During their wedding reception at The Modern Art museum in Fort Worth everyone had a ton of fun! The grand hall was beautiful with tall white topiary floral with a mixture of low centerpieces accented by silver and clean lined black chivari chairs. The statement in the room was the dance floor though – the custom black and white dance floor by DFW Dance Floors was cool and really brought the room together. As the couple walked the catwalk and entered the reception by the grand stair case they went straight into their first dance. Jeff held Emilie close and embraced her with his hands on her face as they shared that first dane as though they were the only ones in the room. After dinner and some toasts that brought everyone to laughter (and a few tears) it was time to party!

I am so excited for what the future holds for you two – Emilee and Jeff – Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey. I loved every moment with you and was inspired by your love for each other and all those around you. Congrats!

Emilee & Jeff – Wedding Ceremony at Marty Leonard ChapelFort Worth, Texas

November 18, 2016 Ceremony

Emilee & Jeff’s black and white wedding was not just super pretty – it was full of emotional moments that made me get goose bumps and cry happy tears behind my camera. After an sweet first look at the Omni hotel we headed to Marty Leonard Chapel for their wedding ceremony. Emilee got her bridesmaids super fun black and white polka dot umbrella’s by Kate Spade so we had to use them for a photo – so cute! After some photos of the bridesmaids and groomsmen outside the church it was time for their fall nighttime ceremony. The chapel has bright light during the day but at night it is moody and dimly lit and I think it feels very romantic. During the ceremony I don’t think Jeff stopped smiling for an instant – I love his smile – so bright and contagious. Even now I am smiling as I type thinking about his face. 🙂 After the I do’s we were able to capture some night time portraits showing off the architecture and space that makes the Marty Leonard Chapel so beautiful and unique.

Weddings are awesome but they are sure made better by a fab vendor team! Thankfully Emilee had one great team:

Emilee & Jeff – Getting Ready & First Look at the Omni HotelFort Worth, TX

November 17, 2016 First Look

Where do I even begin? This couple is just the sweetest most silly in the perfect ways kind of in love that makes my life better. The way they look at each other, how they melt into each others arms and their willingness to enjoy life and laugh is refreshing and inspiring. Emilie & Jeff met in High School, kept in touch, and eventually fell hard in love as you can see by these photos.

The couple and their families and friends prepared for the wedding at The Omni Fort Worth Hotel. Emilee was full of nervous energy and laughter as she awaited seeing her prince. She is close to her Mom and sister and I loved the connection they had to each other as they helped her dress in her textured gown. Jeff looked so good and SO ready to see Emilee as he awaited my direction to turn around. When he turned his jaw dropped and rightly so – Emilee was stunning! These two laughter, embraced and checked each other out as they chatted about the day. It was such a heartfelt first look and after we had the parents join us for a gift and one of my favorite moments of the day – Jeff’s Mom & Step Dad seeing Emilee for the first time. Dad gave a big OK and Mom was just speechless – I love watching families become one that so deeply care for the person their child is marrying. It sure makes it extra special.

Thanks to our vendor partners!

Allie & Kane – Wedding Reception at River Crest Country ClubFort Worth, Texas

April 6, 2016 Details

Tracy Autem Photography 2014 https://tracyautem.com

River Crest Country Club was just stunning for Allie & Kane’s wedding. This was my first wedding to photograph at the club and I just fell in love with the ballroom, the staff and the location. It was the perfect place for this elegant and classic wedding reception. Tami Winn created an amazing space complete with custom gold dance floors, hedge walls, custom signage and an outdoor space that was so welcoming. A gospel choir entertained the guests during cocktail hour before Downtown Fever took the stage to welcome the bride and groom into their first dance. All night these two were rarely apart and spent the evening chatting up friends and family or shaking it on the dance floor. It was such a fun night – all their guests had a blast. I have never seen so much spilt alcohol – a sure sign of a GOOD party! As the night came to a close we said farewell and sent Allie & Kane off to Thailand for their honeymoon.

Congrats you two – it was really a pleasure being with you. I could see the Love you have not only for each other but also for God. I could see the Lord’s hand in every working part of this day. My favorite part of the entire day was when Allie’s little sister asked me what my favorite wedding was. I responded all of them – each for different reasons. She wanted to know what my favorite part of this day was and it was a no brainer – God – I could see God in every part of this day. It was so amazing!

Thank you Tami for pulling together this couple’s dream day and for bringing us together as vendors!

Allie & Kane – Romantic Couples Portraits & Bridal PartyKimball Art Museum, Water Gardens & Broadway Baptist

April 5, 2016 Ceremony

Allie & Kane are just too cute. They are all about each other and it is so obvious in every photo. They have known each other since they were little kids so there is an ease to their relationship that is unique. Their families are truly close friends, their friends are each others friends – it is so special. After an emotional first look at the hotel we hit the Kimball Art Museum & the Fort Worth Water Gardens for some romantic portraits and fun bridal party pictures. Allie likes classic but clean and modern so the locations were a perfect fit for their day. Then it was on to the ceremony to say I do and get the party started.

Katie & Charlie – New Years Eve Wedding Reception at Fort Worth Club

January 21, 2016 Details

Happy New Year!!! I mean come on, is this not the most epic way to ever celebrate the new year? Surrounded by by their loved ones these two said more than I do. They said goodbye to 2015 and hello to a new year and a new life and Mr. & Mrs. They also threw the best New Years Eve party ever!

The ballroom at Fort Worth Club looked amazing! Tami Winn and her team pulled off a beautiful installation of floral, lighting, custom pieces and a floral halo that was suspended over the dance floor. It was the first time for the club to have a piece suspended from the chandelier and it just perfected the ambience and made everyone know that this night – was about the party on the dance floor! To go with their theme – the countdown to Conway – the couple had confetti tubes with “cue the confetti” tags and party horn place cards.

As the clock crept toward midnight the Project Band led the countdown and the room erupted in confetti, cheers, noise makers and lots of first kisses of 2016. It was perfect!

Glad I could ring in the new year with this couple, their families and an great team of wedding vendors:

Katie & Charlie – Winter Night Wedding Ceremony at Marty Leonard Chapel

January 20, 2016 Ceremony

We ended 2015 with one fun blowout of a party as we celebrated alongside Katie & Charlie at Marty Leonard Chapel and The Fort Worth Club. Before we could ring in the new year first we had to countdown to Conway and get these two married!

We kicked off the day at The Fort Worth club for preparations and some relaxing with the bridesmaids and groomsmen. The ladies were ready to party and sparkling from head to toe in their gold drape backed sequin gowns. Charlie, the sweetheart that he is, gave each of the bridesmaids a bottle of Creed Perfume, Love in White, with a hand written note on the back thanking them for being a part of their day. Every detail was perfect and thought out from the fabulous blue shoes Katie wore to the bejeweled clutch and the amazing sapphire ring borrowed from he groom’s Mother. When it was time to get dressed Katie just glowed. I love her classic and clean lined gown with a fun and textured flared skirt.

At the church we snuck in a few photos as the sun was setting outside. The ladies were so sophisticated in their fur stoles. Charlie and his guys were thankful for the cold though – it is so funny to me how guys are always hot! Whenever it is cold outside it seems like a blessing to the groom. Katie’s family had their childhood minister who baptized her fly in to perform the ceremony. By candlelight and romantic moody lighting the couple said their vows. Charlie cried a few tears and Katie was so radiant. It was such a pleasure to share this day with them.

Without this amazing team this wedding would not have been possible, thanks friendors!

Kristen & Preston – Wedding Ceremony at Fort Worth 1st Presbyterian Church

May 22, 2015 Ceremony

Wedding Fort Worth Presbyterian Fort Worth Club Tami Winn Events Tracy Autem Photography-0016

This wedding was super fun and full of energy! Kristen and Preston are the kind of people you just want to be around. Smiling, laughing and always having a good time. Their wedding day was no different, perfectly them in every way!

Today we are sharing their ceremony, preparations and first look at 1st Presbyterian Church of Fort Worth. We met up with this lovely couple and their crew for some prep at The Fort Worth Club. The boys played pool and had fun while the ladies were primped and prepped in the Camelia Room. Before heading to the church the couple exchanged notes and their faces were both beaming. At the church Kristen slipped into her amazing lace layered ball gown before heading off to see her groom. In her dress she could not contain her excitement – all zipped up and shoes on her feet she started twirling in the dressing room. To look and feel like a princess is every little girl’s dream and she 100% looked the part.

In the sanctuary Preston awaited Kristen to tap him on the shoulder so he could turn around and finally see his bride. I am so glad they did a first look as they spend time just talking, laughing, admiring one another and just being too cute for words. I know that for them having that special moment away from everyone else just set the tone and pace for the rest of the day.

During their vows even from our distant view you could see the joy up on the altar as these two made their promises, said their vows and exchanged rings. Every ceremony needs a touch of comic relief and their’s had it as Kristen dropped the unity candle – thankfully nothing caught on fire and all was well. It may have been the only hiccup their entire day – every wedding has one – atlases their’s was a funny one!

Thanks to the team of vendors that made all of this couples dreams a reality:

Ah, the dress! No really, the dress. Kristen is a beautiful girl, sweet and funny and so exciting to spend time with AND she has some pretty immaculate taste don’t you think? This gown just makes me fall over it is so pretty. I loved the classic ball gown styling all grown up with layers of delicate lace, a little sparkle and a belt that just pushed it over the edge. As I am putting the finishing touches on Kristen & Preston’s wedding images today I just had to share her bridals we took back in the winter during one of our icy weeks. After some Fort Worth Club photos we headed out to a wooded area for a few outdoor shots. We spent about 8 minutes outside before this girl froze but we got to showcase a fun fur and the winter landscape. Her luscious bouquet was designed and created by Tami Winn Events. The gown was purchased at Stanley Korshak and hair and make up services were provided by Angie Williams.
