Wow! What an incredibly sweet, joyful day this was! Photobyjoy (Asia Eidson) did an incredible job at capturing the fun that this couple, their friends, and family had. There was a smile on everyone’s face, A LOT of dancing and laughter, and one of the biggest cheers for a couple’s “first kiss” that we have ever seen. We are so excited to share these beautiful classic images with you, and we hope that you enjoy! Check out more of Photobyjoy’s work at photobyjoy.com or connect with her through social media.
Our bride and groom, Kaitlyn and Andy, wanted something simple but fun from the very beginning! They also wanted a little bit more of a polished wedding, rather than completely rustic, and I think they accomplished just that. With greenery and pops of colorful florals on the tables in the reception, our authentic red barn was full of life and created a very classic look. They also had a cute trailmix bar using galvanized buckets so that guests could snack throughout the night and even take a bag home. Not only that, but anyone would envy what a wonderful dessert bar they had! The different flavored cupcakes and mini cheesecakes were a huge hit! Kaitlyn and Andy were absolutely in love with our vintage white wedding chapel from the first time they saw it, so they decided to take a very simple approach when it came to decor, as to not overshadow the gorgeous view overlooking our fountain, lake, and longhorns. Bright florals were tied to the first few pews to create some interest, and of course the gorgeous bridesmaids’ dresses along with their bright bouquets added even more color to the ceremony.
Overall, Andy and Kaitlyn’s wedding was so full of joy and turned out beautifully! When we first met this couple, we asked them what they were most looking forward to about their special day and marriage, and their answer was… “Getting to celebrate our marriage with our friends and family (and dancing the night away). We make each other laugh until we cry.” I think it’s safe to say that the Middletons will never stop laughing together! We wish you two the absolute best. Congratulations to Andy and Kaitlyn!
A very special thank you to the wonderful vendors who made this day such a success!
