This September wedding was one I will never forget! Not only was this couple so special, they had chosen an amazing team of vendors and both of those factors always seem to make the day so enjoyable! We started off with the getting ready images at The Worthington Renaissance in Downtown Fort Worth. This hotel is such a beautiful one to photograph a getting ready because it’s so spacious and stunning! Rachel had her mom and her bridesmaids by her side as she got ready and into her Bliss Bridal Salon gown. Once we got the girls all ready, we headed to the Marty Leonard Chapel where the couple would soon have their ceremony. I took Paul and his best man up on the fun balcony to have him pose some getting ready shots. They were so goofy and we laughed so hard, mostly because poor Paul’s fly was undone… But don’t worry, we caught it before their first look! The weather wasn’t too bad that day, so we set them up for their first look right in front of the gorgeous chapel. We took advantage of having just them too outside for a second and were able to get some sweet photos of the two of them I hope they’ll enjoy for a lifetime. Between then and the ceremony, we focused on getting some of the family photos done. Guests started to arrive, so it was time for us to let those two love birds and their family go downstairs and prep for the ceremony. The couple were Christ followers and had that time centered around him and them becoming one with God. It was such a beautiful ceremony and was precious to witness! The couple had the 5pm to 8pm time slot for the chapel, and that time is my favorite during the summer because you get both the bright and moody look to the chapel. After the ceremony was over, we took advantage of the sun setting and got some romantic shots of the two of them. Now it was time to celebrate alongside their friends and family! We headed over to the City Club of Fort Worth and as always, it was nothing but fantastic. The food was great, the space was gorgeous and the dancing was on fire! It’s Your Night Entertainment had the party going all night long, Justine’s Flowers outdid herself with these stunning and unique centerpieces, and last but not least, Jessica with The Southern Socialite played such a huge part of having the day run so smoothly! My favorite part of their day was their send off!! The canons that shoot out the string actually had the string still attached for such an easy clean up and it looks so beautiful! Congratulations again Rachel & Paul, it was such a privilege working alongside you guys for such an important day in your lives! Lots of love, Hayle!!
