Laura & Greg – Wedding Reception at Fort Worth Club

November 9, 2015 Details

Fort Worth Club is always a favorite of mine, it is so elegant and timeless and it was the perfect place for this classic couple to share their wedding with family and friends. After a sweet ceremony at Broadway Baptist Church it was time to open up a night of celebration with a first dance. As these two danced all eyes were on them – they were so cute, just looking at one another and smiling as Greg twirled and spun Laura as the danced as husband and wife for the first time. The ballroom looked fabulous with design help from planner Deanie Michelle and florist Deitra with Lush Couture. Loved the neutral palette though out the room except for the fun pop of pink on the head table. It made the grande table even more of a statement drawing your eyes to all the textured pink floral. In the Terrace lounge furniture framed their cake display by Creme de la Creme & The Fort Worth Club. Once dinner came to an end Laura shared a dance with her Daddy and Greg danced with his Mommy and his Grandma. I loved this lady, she reminded me SO much of my own Grandmother and she just doted on her grandson, the groom. You could see how full of joy she was to see him married and to be made special on his day. As the dance floor was opened Grandma didn’t take a seat but instead stayed on the floor dancing and laughing with Laura and other friends and family. It really warmed my heart watching her all night. Laura and Greg were ultimate cuties – I can’t even count how many photos I have of them kissing, scrunching up their faces all close together and generally being amazing as they danced. The band pulled the couple on to the stage as the night came to a close to help with a song before the departure in the lobby. Thank you guys for allowing us to be with you. Watching you families and friends – I could see how much they loved both of you and the joy it brought all of them to see you married. It did the same for me, you two are pretty fabulous AND as I said Greg – you win an AWESOME GROOM award for being so dang cool. 🙂 Laura and her Mom pulled together a pretty amazing team of vendors, thanks to everyone of you for making this day so fun and beautiful!

Shelby & Blake – Wedding Reception at The Fort Worth Club

August 26, 2015 Details

Love these two! So sweet how they are together and this moment just made my heart happy. As Blake’s Dad gave words of welcome and congrats, Blake stole this little kiss. I think it is kind of fascinating how as women, when we are kissed so sweetly on the forehead or cheek often respond with this smiley squishy face. I know I do! I think that is why it pulls at my heart, it is just a genuine happy reaction to being loved on.

Blake an Shelby had quite the party with an amazing band, fabulous floral and design and lots of fun. The details were gorgeous so I included many of their beautiful things! Scroll on to see fabulous linens, cakes, floral and more.

Madison & Holt – Wedding Reception at The Modern Art Museum Fort Worth

July 31, 2015 Details

Madison & Holt’s wedding reception at The Modern was a non stop party! These two stayed close all night and I saw SO much love between these two. A couple on a crowded dance floor gets to drop everything away and just be them. I am pretty sure that Madison has always hoped for a man to look at her like this, looking at this first photo you can see Holt adores her. Getting to capture moments like this is why I do this job and I think I have the best job in the world. Their party wasn’t just full of emotion but it was gorgeous too! Towering clean lined centerpieces with a classic aesthetic paired perfectly with this couples personality. Thanks to all the vendors who made the pretty happen:

Bree & Craig – Private Dallas Ranch Wedding Reception

July 24, 2015 Details

Can’t think of a better end to a day then this. A final goodbye amidst sparklers and fireworks!

The reception space at Bree’s family ranch was housed in a tent filled with rustic meets chic decor. The beautiful barn tables were dressed up in whites, silver and touches of gray, greens and lavenders. The family style atmosphere set the tone for a fun filled night. As limelight took the stage and Bree & Craig were announced the party was on! This couple never strayed far from the dance floor or each other. After dinner it was time for cake and there was a little special detail on the back of the cake just for Craig – his Jersey number on a tiny little football! Super cute and very thoughtful of Bree. As the night progressed it was time for wedding dress #2! I am not always a fan of second dresses but this one – let me say was pretty awesome. The slinky beaded gown was easy to dance in and had perfect little princess cap sleeves. As the night came to close the couple took the stage for their last dance along side the band before being led off to their honeymoon by the horn section.

It was a fabulous night and we had the best time celebrating with them. Bree made us feel like family and I am just thrilled for these two and the life they have ahead of them. Congratulations you two!

Bree & Craig – Getting Ready & Ceremony at Dallas Private Ranch

July 23, 2015 Ceremony

After a kiss to seal their marriage Craig and Bree were all smiles as the turned to their family and friends. Those infectious smiles made it easy and fun to photograph these two. As the couple arrived at the family ranch a few hours before the I Do’s they prepped is separate homes on site. Bree was stunning in her Pronovias gown with a lace caplet that made her look. I love a girl that knows what she likes and Bree knows. She wanted some type of sleeves and by adding this little lace bolero she achieved exactly what she wanted. It was sophisticated with her high top knot style bun and a the textured mermaid skirt. Her ladies shined in dresses from Nordstrom. The guys went classic and relaxed in gray suiting with suspenders and no jackets to keep cool on this hot summer day. Craig’s jacket however pulled his look tighter and made him a polished groom.

As guests arrived they were greeted by the family dog complete with a flower wreath of baby’s breath. I love that they turned everything around and kicked off the day with a cocktail hour. So guests enjoyed the shade, cold drinks and light snacks before the wedding. During the ceremony as the sun began to set vows were said and this to were married! Lots of laughs, big smiles, and sweet moments. Check back tomorrow for their energy filled party and of course thank you to the following vendor team who made this day such a sucess!

Chelsea & Spencer – Wedding Reception at the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum

Fort Worth Modern Art Museum Wedding Arborlawn Methodist Church Tracy Autem photographer blush pink tami winn chelsea spencer-70

Chelsea & Spencer hosted their reception at The Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth. We always love working there as the galleries are a super special treat to be able to photograph in. The couple walked the catwalk and down the grand stairs to the great hall at the Modern to kick off their reception with their first dance. The museum looked perfect with the soft pinks, whites and golds and I just loved the unique head table installation. After dinner and parent dances the band’s horn section led back into the cafe for a night of dancing and fun. Chelsea and Spencer spent much of the evening chatting up their guest, giving lots of hugs and never to far from each others sides. Congratulations you two! It was an amazing night and I am so happy we were able to be with you!

After a touch of pre ceremony rain we had bright sunny skies for some photos outdoors before heading to Alison and Brent’s wedding reception. I just love the exterior at Robert Carr Chapel, completely classic and so romantic. The couple and their bridal party had a bit of fun on the step and a groomsmen’s jacket may have been damaged by their shenanigans. 🙂 Then it was off to the reception for a fabulous party with Trey & the Tritones and a delicious sit down dinner by Fort Worth Club. Brent ended their first dance with a dip and a kiss and before long the floor was full and stayed packed with dancing and fun all night long! For their cakes the couple gave a not to their alma matter, Baylor with a themed cake and a fun gobo light. From the first dance to the last dance this night was perfect.

Ali & Brent – Wedding at Robert Carr Chapel TCU

August 28, 2014 First Look

Ali and Brent are married! We had a blast with them on Aug 16th for their wedding and reception. These two met when they were just kids really and began dating in High School. After 8 years together they are finally husband and wife! We started their day at Fort Worth Club for preparations and their first look in the Terrace. These two just lit up as they saw each other for the first time and I could see the nerves melt off their faces. After some time to chat we were able to photograph them in the club and with their reception decor – a rare treat as so few couples are ever in their space before their guests. The design and floral by Tami Winn Events made for a very romantic backdrop to an already beautiful couple. Then as the clouds decided to let down little rain we were off to Robert Carr Chapel at the Texas Christian University campus. With umbrella’s in hand we dodged the weather and took it as good luck before these two said their vows. By the end of the i do’s the rain had passed and their marriage had begun. Congrats you two! Can’t wait to share more of your day and party tomorrow!

Meghan & Cody Wedding – Reception at Bass Hall Founders Concert Theater Stage

August 13, 2012 Moments

I’m almost sad this is my last post from this wedding. BUT I can’t be sad about these awesome images and this super sweet couple! Their reception was a perfect party and it came together with out a hiccup thanks to the guidance and planning of Tami Winn. As the guests finished cocktails in the grand lobby they were ushered back into Founders Theater to see the curtain raised and a marvelous reception awaiting them on stage. With guest musician, Texas Country star Corry Morrow, Meghan and Cody danced their first dance and kicked off a night of celebration.

The grand lobby of Bass Hall set with rented furnishings welcomed guests during cocktail hour.

The textured bouquet complimented Meghan’s gown.

This stunning large scale cake by Creme de la Creme made a statement across the room and tasted delicious.

Paper detailing by Simply Luxe from menu’s to these special signs were simply perfect.

A well executed vision by Tami Winn Event and the team of vendors she selected for a fairy tale wedding day.

Chandelier’s from Beyond created ambiance and depth in the space.

Country singer, Corry Morrow, singing Brand New Me during their first dance.

Some photos I love because they are beautiful, cool light, romantic. BUT this image just tugs at my heart. I loved seeing the connection between this couple and their families as they prayed before dinner. I hope this strength remains with them always.

A sweet hug caught between the Groom and his Mother in Law.
