Jacy & Sam – Wedding Reception at The Tribute Golf ClubThe Colony, Texas

April 11, 2017 Details

Look at that yummy golden hour light! Could I ask for more? I think not! After Jacy and Sam said I do we pretty much had the most perfect sunset light to explore a little bit around the Tribute’s golf course. The course views and the sliver of the lake in the background paired with these two made for a very happy photographer – this girl!!! Sam is so sweet to Jacy and since I hadn’t met him until the wedding day this was my first opportunity to see them together. As the sun finally set it was time to party though and we headed in for a night of dinner, dancing and allot of partying! Jacy and Sam hit the dance floor and spent quality time catching up with their friends, laughing and mingling with guests. I loved their bubble gun exit – SOOO many bubbles!!!!

Huge thank you to all the vendors who helped make this day so perfect for Jacy, Sam and their families:

Megan & Dylan – Wedding Reception at The Modern Art MuseumFort Worth, Texas

September 26, 2016 Details

The Modern Art Museum of For tWorth is always a fave spot of mine – the venue has the most gorgeous architecture and being photographed in front of world class art is kind of amazing. With an exhibit taking up the downstairs of the museum Philip, the museum guru, took me to a few spots I don’t usually get to visit including this fun lit piece above that was made for a romantic silhouette shot!

The grand hall was stunning with the grey’s of the museum against the silver and plum purples of the reception design by Tami Winn Events. Lighting by It’s your night entertainment brought depth to the space. To really escalate the bar spaces Tami Winn brought in hedge walls and bar facades. So pretty!

Megan & Dylan entered the grand hall via the cat walk above their reception and welcomed guests before sitting down to dinner. After cake and some mingling we moved the party to the cafe where the oval custom dance floor became center stage. During the first dance Megan’s Daddy some how unplugged all the lighting systems but these two kept going and we kept photographing – it was definitely one of those funny moments that will forever be a wedding day story. Megan & Dylan partied, danced, tossed bouquets & garter’s and savored every moment of their wedding reception!

I could not make all the beautiful images without the help of a fabulous vendor team, thanks to these guys for making my job easy!

Megan & Dylan – First Look & PortraitsWedding Day in Fort Worth

September 26, 2016 First Look

Just look at that! See! I am in love with this day and all the feelings that just bubbled over from start to finish. Megan and Dylan chose to see each other before their TCU Robert Carr Chapel wedding ceremony. We set up Dylan on the deck at The Omni Hotel Fort Worth as he awaited his bride. He was so ready to see her and just before he turned around to see Megan I asked him what he thought her dress looked like, he nailed it! Dylan knows his sweet Megan well, he said her gown was big and sparkly. 🙂 Love that! When he turned these two both just burst out in tears of joy – their day had finally arrived!!!

After some emotion, hugging it out and catching up on their day we took some romantic portraits before heading over to the Kimbell Art Museum with the bridesmaids and groomsmen for some fun photo ops. The clean lines and bright light colors of the architecture outside there perfectly balanced the reception space at The Modern Art Museum. I really could just photograph these two for hours alone – they were so adorable. But, they kind of needed to get to the chapel and get married so I had to let them go.

Rachael & Colin – Wedding Reception at Marie Gabrielle

May 28, 2015 Moments

After these two said I do it was time for some romantic portraits! Marie Gabrielle Restaurant in downtown Dallas really is a stunning place to get married and I was so thankful the rain stayed away so we had time to capture these two love birds in the gardens. Rachael’s lace gown and all white bouquet were simply elegant next to Colin’s traditional tuxedo. We used up every last little bit of light before heading on inside to the party!

Gro Designs knocked it out of the park with the fabulous floral chandelier hanging above the dance floor. It made the space feel extra special for Rachael & Colin. Their reception was full of good food, laughter and fun as these two celebrated with their closest friends and family. From getting down and dancing to the sparkler send off everyone had a fantastic time.
Congrats to the newlyweds and I can’t wait to hear about your Greece honeymoon!

Rachael & Colin – Wedding Ceremony at Marie Gabrielle

May 27, 2015 Ceremony

Rachael & Colin’s day was completely blessed. I think every person involved was getting on their knees leading up to this wedding asking God to hold off the rains so that this couple could share their vows in the outdoor garden at Marie Gabrielle in downtown Dallas. The Lord heard those prayers and not only held off the rain for their ceremony but a drop didn’t hit the ground until after their entire celebration came to an end. On top of the praise worthy weather their day was just full of sweet moments and we so enjoyed sharing in it with them.

Meeting up with the ladies for getting ready I kind of fell in love with the thoughtful gift the bridesmaids bestowed upon their friend. Each girl purchased a cookbook for her new home and wrote a note to Rachael in it. I love that for years to come she can pull out those cook books, fill her home with delicious food and remember her wedding day. Way to go ladies!

At the gardens before the ceremony Rachael & Colin shared a moment together with out breaking tradition of seeing one another. Around a pillar they shared wedding gifts and some words to ease their nerves and share their excitement. During the ceremony we laughed that Colin married 2 women as her uncle and minister tripped over his words and called her by her first name once and middle name another time. Every day needs something to tell stories about!

Check back tomorrow for their wedding reception blog and slide show. In the meant time thanks to a stellar vendor team that pulled all the details together and made sure this day was smooth.

After a pretty awesome start to the day we decided to keep it up and start the party!

Richelle and Travis had a choreographed first dance so we had to get a little practice in at the Grand Hall to make sure they could do all their tricks in their wedding attire.

I think Richelle may have hit Travis in the face, just maybe. 🙂

They did it! Lift and all it was a priceless first dance and performed well!

A touching welcome and toast from Dad.

Cake cutting and feeding got a little crazy.

Anniversary dances are always so cool when the couple that has been married the longest is your grandparents. So sweet and she gave Grandma her bouquet.

Now normally phones are no no’s on your wedding day BUT you have to get in a call to the Grandma that couldn’t make it! Here Richelle is telling her Oma how perfect everything is, it was the most adorable moment.

Late night snacks anyone? Catering by the always yummy City Club.

After their exit they hopped into their carriage and then tossed the bouquet…..to her youngest, baby sister. Let’s hope she waits a LOOOOOONG time to get married!

After Sarah and Michael’s vows and a few photos of the two of them alone at Robert Carr Chapel we were off to their reception at Fort Worth Club. Their guests enjoyed an elegant dinner service before being transitioned into a second room for dancing all night long. It was a magical evening and it was fun to see these two high school sweethearts live it up with all their friends. The club was full of floral in blush pinks by Tami Winn Events and a tasty cookie and sweets bar was available for guests to take a little something yummy home with them. In a flurry of confetti they exited for their honeymoon with sweet intimate farewells to their closest family downstairs before taking off in a vintage limo.

Their wedding day was nothing but exquisite and that is all thanks to the following team:

Sarah & Michael – Fort Worth Wedding at Robert Carr Chapel

June 20, 2013 Ceremony

Sarah and Michael are married! This wedding was a day to be remembered and is one of my favorites this year. This couple has an amazing love story from meeting in equine class in high school to overcoming great distances (Japan is pretty darn far away!) to finally walking down the aisle, saying I DO and moving on to a new adventure together. I know these two have some exciting times ahead as Sarah joins the ranks of Military wife and Michael gets to finally have her by his side at all times. I was truly privileged to be a part of their journey.

We met up at The Fort Worth Club before the ceremony for some prettying up in the Camellia Room for the ladies and some pool shooting in the 21 club for the gentelmen. Sarah slipped her dress on twice, one at the club then at the church again before walking down the vibrant red carpet of Robert Carr Chapel to see her husband. Their ceremony, officiated by Love Notes, was perfect and I can’t wait to share their elegant timeless reception at Fort Worth Club tomorrow!

The wedding was made possible by their A+ vendor team!
