Texas Wedding Guide’s newest issue has featured Courtney and Phil’s wedding! Their ceremony was at the beautiful Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church and the reception was at the ever so cool W Dallas - Victory. I am so happy for them both and their exciting new life together with their super cute dog Jules!

This week one of our couples is featured on the Dallas Wedding Planner Blog for their series called “Love Gives Me Goose Bumps.” It has been such a joy getting to know and work with Erin and Craig this past year and they are such a sweet couple! You can view the feature at the Dallas Wedding Planner Blog which is a great blog for anyone planning a wedding in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

What a beautiful day it was for Megan and Juan Carlos’ Wedding at Katie’s Garden at the historic Heard-Craig House in McKinney. I’ll start off with a couple of photos from Megan’s bridal session.

After the ceremony they took a carriage ride through the square to the reception which was at the Grand Ballroom at the Grand Hotel. They were literally stopping traffic!

This winter has brought an unusual amount of snow, but our puppy Ollie has been enjoying it as much as he can. Here is a photo of him having fun. I think there’s more snow on him then there is on the ground!

Melissa & Trey’s wedding at the Dallas Arboretum is featured in the newest issue of the Texas Wedding Guide. It’s a wonderful magazine that is a great resource for anyone planning a wedding and we are excited to be in the newest issue. I know Trey & Melissa are too!

We are very excited to be honored with WeddingWire.com’s Bride’s Choice Award for the second year in a row! This award recognizes the top five percent of all vendors in the WeddingWire Community. We want to say thank you to all of our clients who helped make this award possible. Here’s to another great year!

We photographed so many beautiful weddings at the Dallas Arboretum this year and I wanted to post some of the photos from the two most recent weddings. First is Lisa and Brent’s vintage garden themed wedding in the Sunken Garden. And since we had such a blast with their engagement session in historic downtown McKinney I had to share a couple of photos from that session as well.

I am so excited for Erin and Craig’s wedding in Grapevine this Saturday at the St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church! We had so much fun with the engagement session at the McKinney Cotton Mill so I had to post some images. When they are together it’s undeniable how much they adore each other and I am so happy for them. Two days and counting until the big day!

It has been a wonderfully busy Spring and Summer for us and I have haven’t had the time to post on the blog lately but I am really looking forward to sharing what has been keeping us busy the past few months.

First up are some of my favorites from Kimberly’s bridal session that we did at the amazing Adriatica in McKinney. Kimberly and Danny’s wedding was yesterday so I can now post photos from her session since the groom has now seen how amazingly beautiful she was in her dress! Their wedding was at St. Gabriel’s Catholic Church and their reception was at the Eldorado Country Club both in McKinney. Congratulations to Kimberly and Danny!
