I’ve been looking forward to Sidni & Jay’s wedding for months now! We had a blast shooting their unique engagement session at Deep Eddy Cabaret last fall, and I knew their wedding would be every bit as fun. In fact, they were one of the few first couple’s to score an awesome new wedding venue in Horseshoe Bay, TX called Escondido! It was every bit as gorgeous as I had imagined and unfolded into a magical fairy tale day that I couldn’t have even imagined. After a small hiccup that included the bride feeling ill the morning of the wedding, Sidni was the essence of strength, and pulled through just in time for the wedding! Sidni is not only a sweet and magnetic personality, but she is also as beautiful as they come, inside and out. But that hiccup also meant we got to hang out with all the bridesmaids and shoot some fun photos of Jay and his family instead! Note Jay’s super awesome wedding gift from Sidni – fishing reel cuff links! And to top it off, boutineers for the guys with fly fishing lures in them – I love original and personalized ideas like this!! Even the bridesmaid’s gifts were personalized, beautiful brown leather cowboy books with the girls initials stamped into the leather! But Sidni wasn’t left out, luckily, and receive her own personal pair from Jay, too. :) After the party moved over to the Hacienda for the big reception, the couple was in for yet another surprise… right after the dances, everyone was treated to a spectacular surprise firework show behind the stage.  Before the dance party wound down, guests were also chowed down on the yummy late-night trailer eats of the Hat Creek Burgers. Then the couple had a spectactular sparkler exit with even more fireworks lining the path of the white limo as they drove off!
