tyler + marci • wedding • borger, tx

I was so honored and excited when Marci contacted me about shooting her wedding this summer. Marci has always been such a good friend to my little sister, Layne, and I can totally see God in her! She and Tyler had been dating for some time, and after finishing school at Texas A&M, it was time to make some vows. Here are some of my favorites from their wedding day.

Ceremony: First Baptist Church, Borger, TX

Reception: Borger Country Club

Dress: Brides of Amarillo

Suits: Jim's Formal Wear

Bouquets, Corsages, and Boutonnieres: Kristi Gray

Floral and Event Design: Season Celebrations

Cakes: Tina Massengale

Caterer: Borger Country Club

DJ: Jack Light

Hair: Donna Burris

Both Tyler and Marci cited their First Look as their favorite part of the day. Marci had envisioned walking down the stairs to him and it was perfect!

There were so many pretty vintage details! Marci said, "My favorite details were the pieces that I chose to use from my grandmothers. We used artwork, old suitcases, and even furniture. Since both sets of my grandparents have passed, this was very special to me."

Marci's Mom held this sign as they walked down the aisle! Loved it!

Tyler's table was devoted to one thing, and one thing only...see if you can guess what it is. :)

There was some fierce competition for the garter-

"It's close to miiiiiiiidnight, and there's something evil lurkin' in the daaark...."

I am still finding birdseed in places I'd rather not speak of...but I LOVE this effect!

Marci and Tyler's advice for future brides and grooms?

"Be as organized as you can the day of. Give the wedding party a specific job. Have someone be in charge of gathering your belongings and putting them in the car that you are leaving the reception in. Things are crazy at the reception and the last thing you want to be doing is worrying about where your stuff is. Trust us!"

Congrats you guys! Thanks so much!

justin + lana • wedding • borger, tx

It is always such an honor to photograph a wedding when I know the story behind it. I've decided that it's all the parts leading up to the wedding that truly make the wedding day special...and in this case, I got to have some insight on Lana's life up to this very big day.

I know that Lana was picky when it came to guys- and for good reason. She didn't want to waste time! She had other things to do- and God has used her to impact so many lives through teaching, leading children's programs and friendships. Then Justin came along- and only made her more capable of doing the things she loves! They are such a beautiful picture of patience, purity, and love. One of the best things about getting to hang out with them is watching them laugh together. You can tell they truly enjoy each other's company. 

Here are some of my favorites from their wedding. It was a day full of tradition, family, and sweet memories...and SONIC! Congrats you guys!

Lana's grandmother sewed a ring into her dress that has been in her family for four generations. 

Love all of these girls!

Did someone say "CANDY BAR"?!?! I'm no going to lie, I filled a bag to the brim!

One reason this was a unique Mother-Son dance: the song! Just at least listen to the chorus. It's hilarious and awesome.

This is not the most incredible image in the world, but this is a perfect example of how Lana and Justin are constantly having fun together.

Justin is a big candy-lover, so in lieu of a cake he went for a piñata! So much fun!

marcus + lacey • wedding • borger, tx

Marcus and Lacey were married on March 13 in Borger. I've been looking forward to their big day ever since their Engagement Session in the fall. It was a really gorgeous day (in the middle of a bunch of cold and windy days), and the company was wonderful. I love both of their families and so getting to be around them so much was a blast! 

Checking over things with the pastor before the ceremony...

What, Marcus is just outside that window?!?

I love the pincushions in the bridesmaids' bouquets!

Love this one of Marcus and his sisters.

The reception was at the Borger Country Club. My Mom and her friend Lisa (my other Mom, haha) designed the event. Everyone loved the fish and the orchids. Give them a call- they are the best!

  

Now this is my kind of dancing. Haha. I told you they were fun!
