Dominique & Thomas’ Stunningly Beautiful Jackson Hole Ranch Wedding!

Summer of 2021 brought with it our first wedding in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Having vacationed there in the past, we had always wanted to shoot there, so we were so excited when Dominique contacted us!

The wedding took place at Lost Creek Ranch, which is just about 30 minutes north of downtown Jackson – right next Grand Teton National Park! This made for an absolutely stunning ceremony backdrop (any way of describing it won’t do it justice, so watch the film for yourself!).

We also got the chance to do their rehearsal dinner the day before, which began with a wooden boat river cruise down the Snake River. The entire weekend was just magical. Here’s their 15 minute feature!

Spring-time Garden Wedding in Dallas.

Megan & John | The Dallas Arboretum
The Dallas Arboretum’s Jonnson Color Garden is such a picturesque location for a wedding ceremony! Megan & John exchanged their vows on a beautiful day in May in front of all of their closest family & friends. Their customized vows were so heart felt – excited to share a snippet of them in this trailer!

stay tuned for Megan & John’s feature film!

A luxury coastline wedding in Big Sur, California

Ashley & JJ | Big Sur, California
The day began at a luxurious house on the California coast in Carmel-by-the-Sea (where the famous show Big Little Lies was filmed!). After bridal and groom prep, Ashley & JJ had their first look in the *amazing* backyard garden overlooking the ocean. From there the festivities began just down the road at Point 16, a coastline property with stunning views of the ocean and cliffside. We had so much fun documenting this day!

Breathtaking Cabo destination wedding

Ashley & Karim recently celebrated their one year anniversary, which has us reminiscing on how absolutely perfect their wedding day was! We actually first met Ashley at her older sister, Cindy’s wedding, where she was maid of honor a few years back! When Ashley and Karim got engaged and decided they wanted to have a destination wedding in Mexico, we were so excited to be a part of their day! It was our first time in Cabo and the incredible beaches and views have us longing to go back!

The ceremony took place with the most breathtaking backdrop of waves crashing on the shore, and the night ended with a huge fireworks display – watch the whole video until the end to see the “epilogue” with some extra firework footage!

The most magical wedding in Big Sur, CA!

Wow! The amazing views of this beautiful cliffside venue in Big Sur were truly breathtaking! Megan and Andrew were the sweetest couple and we’re so glad they asked us to be a part of their wedding day! We love, love, love getting to travel outside of Texas for weddings – while we think our home state is pretty great, we can’t think of anywhere in Texas that can rival the beauty of Big Sur. This wedding was intimate and featured some gorgeous greenery and lace details. We are already dreaming of shooting another wedding in sunny California! Also, Megan gave us a gift bag with cat toys and treats for our fur child, Winston! How sweet is that? We are so lucky to work with some of the most kind and thoughtful people out there! Congrats again, guys!

Hui & Jian’s Beach & Seaside Villa Wedding in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands

Needless to say, we were elated when Hui & Jian contacted us to shoot their wedding in the Virgin Islands! We had never been there before, but had heard that it was incredibly beautiful.

We got there a few days early to get our bearings, and we quickly fell completely head over heels with St. Thomas. The beaches there are just immaculate! We spent a few days getting drone shots sprinkled in with relaxing on the beach, and then Saturday came and we were ready to roll.

MY GOODNESS. The wedding was so gorgeous. We arrived at an oceanside villa on a golf course, and were able to get some spectacular footage of Hui & Jian as they got ready. After the first look, it was off to Lindquist Beach for the ceremony. There’s just something magical about vows with the sound of waves crashing behind you! After that, the reception back at the venue was gorgeous. The decor was definitely on point.

The next day we filmed Hui, Jian and their friends & family take a sailing trip from St. Thomas to St. John and back. If you’re ever in St. Thomas, I can’t stress enough how great of an idea this is! The tour company provided an awesome lunch on board, and then took us to various reefs for snorkeling. Truly just a beautiful and magical place.
