Chapel Ana Villa was the perfect spot for Michael and Lizzie’s ceremony and live band reception! Being a hot summer day here in Texas, having an indoor spot such as Chapel Ana Villa was perfect. This couple planned the perfect wedding and it was one for the books! I would even go as far to say that this was the wedding of the year!

After getting to know this couple and taking their engagement photos in Dallas, I knew that the wedding was going to be incredible. Their personality & vision for their wedding was spot on. I was looking forward to their wedding, and it didn’t disappoint!

This couple and their friends were such a blast as the live band kept everyone entertained all evening long! The day started with a elegant ceremony in the chapel at Chapel Ana Villa. The light, the couple, the ceremony…it was all so beautiful! After the ceremony we headed to the ballroom for a remarkable and memorable reception. Michael and Lizzie had a smile of their face from start to finish. The live band was incredible and there wasn’t a moment in the evening where the dance floor was not full of people dancing and singing along. It was incredible! Having a live band at a wedding just brings everyone to a whole different level! What a night! And one that concluded with Michale and Lizzie up on stage helping the live band!

Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth holds a special place in Hannah’s heart…so when she found out she could have her bridal session there, the decision was made. Hannah is an actress who now owns a few theaters of her own, so this was very much in line with her passion for the arts and acting. We were able to walk around Bass Performance Hall to get photos in some of the neatest places. Hannah was a natural with posing and made my job super easy! After photos inside the hall, we went outside real quick for a snap outside the theatre for memory sake. After all, this place holds a lot of memories for this family, so this whole session was super special to them. If you are reading this, it means Hannah is finally married. I say finally, because when you have an amazing session like this at the Bass Performance Hall, waiting to post that is painful! So yay! Congrats to Hannah and now we can share!

The Springs in McKinney (Stone Hall) hosted Kristi and Jay’s summer wedding, and it was a blast! A year ago Kristi was a bridesmaid at another wedding I shot at The Springs in McKinney – Stone Hall. That wedding was such a blast and the bridesmaids were so much fun! So when Kristi called me about her summer wedding, I was super excited! And this wedding did not disappoint!

Kristi and Jay endured the heat to have a stunning outdoor ceremony at the Stone Hall ceremony site. After the ceremony, we cooled off inside before heading back outside for some pictures of the bride and groom.

Then began the reception. At The Springs in Mckinney, the dance floor is large and gives guests an opportunity to really enjoy the night without feeling like people are all on top of each other… And this dance floor was packed! The groomsmen sure put on a show with their coordinated dance moves…it was so fun! People didn’t stop dancing and enjoying the evening…what a night!

Take a look at some of their photos from their Springs McKinney wedding!
