Today we are sharing Dalton & Bobbie’s beautiful outdoor wedding at her family’s property.  The weather was absolutely beautiful and we were even treated to a gorgeous sunset right as their ceremony ended.

It seems lately that whenever we plan a portrait session around sunset, we end up with a boring dull sky with no color and no clouds. Well, last weekend the odds were in our favor – we had an amazing sunset at the Dallas Arboretum for Anika & Frank’s sunset wedding!

Last fall we got to travel to one of our favorite places to shoot weddings – New Orleans! Bill and Angelica live in the Dallas area but share a deep love for New Orleans, so when they started planning their dream wedding it only made sense that they plan a destination wedding in their dream location – St Louis Cathedral on Jackson Square!  They worked hard to make sure all of the guests received a true feel for the city – from traditional Second Line walk through the French Quarter to the King’s cake at the reception,  they did it all.

You may have already seen Angelica and her sisters on our blog a couple of months ago and you can read a lot more about Bill & Angelica’s wedding in the current Star-Telegram Bridal Section (we’re anxiously awaiting the online version to go live!(

Host hotel – The Bourbon Orleans
Ceremony Venue – St Louis Cathedral
Second Line band – Treme Brass Band
Hair & Makeup – Angelica’s amazing sister, Bianca
Reception Venue – Audubon Zoo, Louisiana Swamp
Cakes – Haydel’s Bakery
DJ (Dallas based) – Gus Garza

This was the first time we have had the opportunity to photograph a Second Line walking through the French quarter – LOVED IT!! And so very Nawlins!

Now on to the reception venue, the Louisiana Swamp at the Audubon Zoo – who wouldn’t want to party amidst the alligators?

Another New Orleans must – the charm pull..

And what could be better for the Groom’s Cake than the famous King’s Cake from Haydel’s Bakery

I don’t remember what song was playing, but I’d be willing to bet that it was either Journey’s or Bon Jovi – they get the best air guitar and lip syncing at most weddings.

Another successful Star-Telegram Bridal show has come and gone and we are tremendously grateful for everyone who came by to see us!  Our booth was pretty busy  most of the day so if you didn’t have a chance to talk to us, drop us an email and we will tell you all about our show specials!
