Hallie’s Bridal Luncheon {Abilene, Texas}

About a week ago, I had the honor of photographing Hallie’s Bridal Luncheon. I first met Hallie in high school, when she was a freshman entering youth group my junior year. She was so sweet, and I loved giving her and other freshman girls rides to events. Now, she is all grown up and just married the man of her dreams. The Thursday before her wedding, Breanne, Valerie, and Glenda Hilliard helped host Hallie’s bridal luncheon and it was absolutely beautiful! Here are the photos….

Wedding Decor by Baack’s Florist {Buffalo Gap, Texas}

So, if you have ever had bridal portraits done by A Moment in Time Photography, you know that Baack’s most generously gives us a bouquet for the bridal portrait session. Baack’s Florist has some of the most beautiful arrangements in town, and they specialize not only in floral design, but entire event design as well. A few weeks back, Luke, the owner of Baack’s, called me up and wanted me to document one of the weddings that they had done the decor on. The wedding ceremony was to take place in the wedding chapel at the Buffalo Gap Historic Village, and the reception at Perini’s Bed and Breakfast and grounds. The bride and groom were actually from Houston doing a destination wedding in good ole’ Buffalo Gap, Texas!! Here are some photos of the wonderful job Luke and his team did. From the arrangements, to the seating areas, table decor, and more, call Baack’s if you are in need of event design!

Ben and Millie Zickefoose Reception {Abilene, Texas}

This weekend I had the honor of photographing Ben and Millie Zickefoose’s wedding reception. They got married a few weeks back and I couldn’t be happier for them! The party was absolutely gorgeous, and I had so much fun capturing the beauty of the day, and many old friends getting together to celebrate and chat!!

Here is the slideshow of the day!

Charlie and LaRue’s 60th Anniversary {Midland, Texas}

So, this past weekend my husband Zane and I got to spend some time back in his hometown of Odessa, Texas. Zane’s grandparents, whom we affectionately call Mimi and Pa, were celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. Zane’s Aunt Diana had the celebration at her house a few miles away in Midland, Texas. It was so sweet to be a part of their celebration, and to get to see most of Zane’s family members all in one sitting. Zane’s mom and aunts (among others, of course!) worked so hard at creating a perfect event that Mimi and Pa would enjoy… small and simple, yet filled with family and love. Pa had not ever gotten Mimi an engagement ring all of those years ago, so after a bit of encouragement, decided that a 60th anniversary was a great time to present his bride with a gorgeous solitaire engagement ring from Occasions in Midland. While Mimi has a wedding band, she has worn her mother’s engagement ring for the past several years. It was beautiful, and Pa even had a lovely speech to accompany the lovely ring. Watch the slideshow below, and scroll down to see more individual photos. The song accompanied is about a 50th anniversary, but it was so fitting, I decided it was fine for a 60th celebration.:)Shanks, Tates, Nielands, and more, I hope you love the slideshow and photos!
