Kim & John – Wedding Ceremony & Reception at Classic Oaks RanchMansfield, Texas

April 7, 2016 Ceremony

Photo by Tracy Autem

Kim and John had a perfect spring wedding at Classic Oaks Ranch. These two met at work and as they became friends, then buddies that spent time at Texas Country concerts it grew into something more – romance. I love the simple beginnings of their relationship and I can see their love for each other is deeply rooted in that friendship. With their love for a laid back life and music the ranch in Mansfield was a great backdrop to their day. I loved how they included their sweet doggie in the wedding day and their nieces and nephews. It was definitely all about family and friends. Thanks guys for letting us share in your day and be by your side.

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.

Kirsten & Ryan – Wedding Reception at City Club of Fort Worth

July 11, 2012 Moments

Kirsten and Ryan had one amazing party. In fact it was so good that I am changing it up and posting it before their ceremony and preparations. Kirsten told me from the first time we met it would be a PARTY and she was right. All night long the floor stayed packed with people and I had so much fun dancing along with them as I photographed that a my feet hurt. Her day was made complete by a perfect list of vendors that honestly I am lucky to work with on any given wedding day. Each and every one of these come with my endorsement.

Glenn is a m aster entertainer and he welcomed the bridal party with custom introductions and hilarious photos. It was a great photo op and made for many laughs.

As Kirsten and Ryan enter their reception you can see they were ready to party!

Kirsten’s Dad welcoming everyone and as he did she got a bit teary.

Stolen Kiss = LOVE

Toasts!

I love that Ryan opted to say a few words to their guests and his bride.

Kirsten and her Daddy had some fun with their dance.

Ryan’s Mom is a beautiful lady and I loved her cowboy boots she donned for the reception.

Glenn doing his thing at the DJ stand and sporting the super cool party favor sunglasses. My favorite! I wore mine ALL night (as a head band so I could see through my camera of course.)

Sisters dancing together and being silly.

Loved this bridesmaid and she was thrilled to catch the bouquet.

Ryan switched it up with his garter toss and attached it to a baseball. Loved this idea and the guys were much more into catching it.

Favorite photo of Ryan form the night, he was having a REAL good time.

Kirsten’s Dad dancing to Brass Monkey.

A few quiet moments alone before their exit.

Glenn Roush went the extra step for this couple and helped them get connected to a vintage truck owner. It was a surprise for Ryan and it was SO cool. And let me not forget that the above photo is this couple to a T!

Did I mention Kirsten wanted to PARTY? I think so and yes, she had a special request for some jumping on the bed photos to end her perfect wedding day.

It was truly a blast being a part of their day and I hope I get to party with them again in a few years for one killer anniversary shin dig.

Rebecca & Mark {Married} Dallas Wedding at Kessler Park United & Marc Events

I was so excited to see Rebecca and Mark 2 weeks ago for their wedding. These two have a true love for one another and for the entirety of their relationship they have lived in different states, their marriage means they will finally live together, in the same zip code! I know moving far from home (to Washington DC from Dallas) but she will have her husband and best friend at her side. They were married at Kessler Park United Methodist in Dallas, we met up with Rebecca and her girls there for preparations before hand. Her friends were amazingly supportive, funny and gorgeous in their gowns from Alfred Angelo. During the ceremony it just melted my heart when Rebecca and her Father reached the altar, Mark jumped forward and embraced his Father in Law not once but twice! It was sweet and it shows just how much these families care for one another.

The reception was one hopping party with music spun by the fabulous Carlton Dixon at Marc Events. The food was to die for good, always is there, and Rebecca and Mark opted out of the traditional wedding cake and went instead for a cute display of nothing bundt cakes for their guests. Loved the variety but have to admit that the only flavor I wanted and ate two of was the white chocolate raspberry, yum! The flowers were provided by Dr Delphinium and it was all pulled together by their coordinator, Dianthe Hall with the Wed Party.

It was such a pleasure to get to know this couple and their families (Rebecca’s Mom is just about the nicest person ever!) and I hope even though you will be living away that as your family grows you will visit us at the studio!
