SOMETHING NEW BRIDES

Moment I Saw My Husband

When the doors of the chapel opened, and I saw my now husband standing at the end of the aisle and his eyes started filling with tears. That moment took my breath away. Literally! When I got to the end of the aisle and my husband grabbed my hand to help me up the steps, he couldn’t stop smiling and looking at me. He couldn’t stop saying “you look so beautiful.”

Saying Our Vows

Reading my vows and listening to my husband read his to me. We both had similar things in our vows that were so perfect.

The Horse And Carriage

When we walked out of the chapel and saw our horse and carriage waiting for us. Myself, my husband, and our daughter got to ride in the horse and carriage, and it was such a magical experience with all of our friends and families watching and cheering us on. It was something out of a Hallmark movie.

Our Venue

Our Grand entrance when we walked in the reception hall and saw everyone clapping, smiling, and cheering. Seeing the whole venue decorated like a Christmas wonderland was absolutely a memory I will never forget. It all felt just like a movie. We had Christmas trees everywhere and a hot coco bar going, and it was so magical.

Our First Dance

We practiced our dance so many times, but NOTHING was like the moment we actually got to do OUR first dance. Smiling and looking into each other’s eyes while everyone watched us was so special.

Our Ceremony

BRIDE, ALEXA

We wanted God to be at the very center of our day, and our ceremony completely encapsulated that. From all of our closest family and friends being there, to our wedding party praying over us, to my husband and I taking communion together with the most beautiful backdrop — we felt God’s presence around us as we became one that day.

Our First Look

We decided to have a first look with each other before the ceremony, and it was one of the most intimate moments of the day. I stood behind my husband and got to tease him a little bit while the photographers got in place, and just seeing his face when he turned around was something I will never forget. Getting to embrace each other before the ceremony took away so many of my nerves and made me excited to walk down the aisle to him.

Our People

I loved getting to celebrate with all of our favorite people. I don’t think there will be another time in our lives where our people from so many different walks of life will be in the same room with us again, so I cherished spending the day celebrating with them. Our DJ did such an amazing job of getting everyone on the dance floor, and we danced the night away with all of them!

Our Venue

Our venue was the perfect feel of Colorado elegance. My husband is from Wyoming, so he loved the barn look; and my mom and I had a vision of adding some class with chandeliers. We loved the finished product! The backdrops of our photos with the fields and mountains were just stunning as well!

Our Last Dance

We decided to do one last dance together after our all our guests had exited the venue and were lining up for our grand exit. It was so special getting to dance to “Cowboy Take Me Away” in our empty venue with each other after our partying with all our people.

Our Family And Friends

For starters, when I think about my wedding day, I think about the immense support that we received from our family and friends. The love was felt from each and every one of our guests and bridal party, and I could not be more grateful for them.

Our Venue

Woodlands Wedding Venue was out of this world in terms of hosting Jake and I. The views were outstanding, and I truly feel so lucky to say that we were able to get married there.

My Dress

Obviously my dress! When I say that I have never received more compliments in my life about a dress -- I’m not lying! I feel as though the dress truly carried the theme of our wedding in its own unique way. It will be a piece I cherish for a lifetime, and I can’t wait to pass it along one day.

Our Vendors

Seeing our visions come to life with the help of all of our wonderful vendors. Jake and I walked away having no complaints about our day, which is huge. It truly allowed us to soak in each and every moment.

OUR LOVE the love shared between Jake and I. (I saved the best for last). The wedding, vows, and moments shared between Jake and I exceeded every expectation I had for the day. I truly feel so lucky!

Our Family

BRIDE, CITLALLY

Having our closest family and friends all come together made our wedding weekend truly unforgettable. We had an out-of-state wedding, but the effort everyone made to be there for us left us speechless. We truly felt the love and are grateful God surrounded us with amazing people.

The Dress

Growing up, I always envisioned having my fairytale moment on my wedding day -- and that is exactly how I felt putting on my dress. I felt like I was in a fairytale. I felt beautiful.

My Husband

Getting to marry my best friend and sharing that with the people I love made it one of the most special days of my life.

The Venue

We had our wedding at Lucky Spur Ranch Retreat in Justin, Texas and it was beautiful! I fell in love with this ranch from the moment I saw it. We decided to make our wedding a little weekend getaway and have our bridal party stay at the ranch for the weekend. The staff at Lucky Spur Ranch Retreat made sure we were fully accommodated and comfortable for our wedding weekend. It was everything we could have hoped for. We laughed, cried, partied hard, and made unforgettable memories.

Our Photographers

Madison Grace Photo is the sweetest husband and wife photography duo you will ever meet! They are so easy and fun to work with. They genuinely cared about what my husband and I had envisioned for our photographs. They work together amazingly which made our whole day run smoothly. We are truly in love with all our wedding pictures!
