Allison & Michael – Wedding Reception at The Orchard, Azle

November 7, 2014 Weddings

After a laugh filled ceremony this couple was blessed with what I would define as perfect light. It was the right time of day with a beautiful natural landscape behind them at The Orchard in Azle. I’m so happy we had time to walk around the property for these images, they are some of my favorites of late! Allison and Michael are just sweet as pie together, so loving, so tender and full of great smiles and laughter – their joy is contagious as I was just as happy behind the camera as they were in front of it! After using up all our light it was time to party! Their friends and family dined on some yummy mexican food then danced the night away! Sealing the evening with a sparkler exit was the perfect ending, congrats to a pretty fabulous couple, I know you have a life time of happiness ahead!

Allison & Michael – Wedding Ceremony at The Orchard in Azle

November 6, 2014 Bridal Portraits

Allison & Michael are married! They had what was possibly the best case scenario ever for their October ranch wedding at The Orchard– perfect temps and beautiful skies! I think every bride planning an outdoor wedding gets a little worried about what could happen that day but all the prayers paid off for this couple. From arrival Allison was all jitters and just excited that it was FINALLY her day! She was just beaming from the inside, I could literally see the joy all over her! After dressing with her maids she did a sweet reveal with her Daddy and I loved it, his face was priceless and he saw his girl as a bride for the first time. During the ceremony Michael got really choked up, tears were shed but more so were big smiles and lots of laughter from this couple. It was a really fun ceremony to watch as their pastor interjected some hilarious comments! It was a huge pleasure to spend the day with this couple and their family and friends. Check back tomorrow for their reception blog!

Kayla & Neal – Wedding Reception at The Orchard

May 22, 2014 Moments

After these two tied the knot in their outdoor wedding at The Orchard it was time to party. This couple was quoted many times as saying it was ALL about the party. It most definitely was as we quickly shifted gears to celebrating. Todd Events brought the outdoors in for their reception with trees sprouting up from the tables, large statement candelabra’s and made it feel like home with comfort food and pies from G Texas Catering. Kayla’s own mother, Gina, created and provided her elegant brides cake. THEN the dance party started, it was kicked off with a unique bridal party intro as the bridesmaids and groomsmen competed in a dance off for some prized liquor bottles. So fun and the best into I have ever seen! Then we hit the floor with DJ Glenn Roush, all night! The small dance floor was packed all night, everyone had to have gone home with happy hearts and achy feet! I am so glad I got to party with these two, it will not be one I forget.

Kayla & Neal – Relaxed Ranch Wedding at The Orchard

May 21, 2014 Ceremony

Kayla and Neal are one of the warmest couples I have ever worked with. Super sweet, totally in love and they pale a high value on relationships with all those around them. They made me feel like I was part of the family, a close friend and an honored guest. It was so much fun to share in their wedding experience. On a perfect first Saturday in May this couple tied the knot at The Orchard in Azle. Not a typical ranch wedding the aesthetic was elegant yet relaxed and organic. Kayla selected Navy and Yellow for her wedding colors. Perfectly complimented and funnily enough the school colors for Michigan where they met. I am sure Neal’s family never pictured their son would fall head over heals for a Texas nurse and chase her down south and drag them along for a full on Southern wedding. Looking above you can see as these two smile at each other in during their ceremony that they are enamored with one another. Their day was perfected by the Todd Events team providing design, floral and planning for this couple.

Todd Events pulled together a fabulous team of vendors including:
