Lindale & Hideaway, Texas Wedding: Jen & Michael

In late July, I drove out to east Texas for Jen & Michael's wedding at the First United Methodist Church of Lindale and at Hideaway Lake Club. I first met Jen when she was the maid-of-honor at her brother's wedding in 2012. I remember her having one of the best speeches I've heard and by far the best leap for a bouquet I've ever seen. I'll be honest; I don't remember every member of every bridal party, but Jen was energetic, funny, gorgeous, and memorable! Therefore, I was extremely excited when she contacted me about photographing her wedding. I met Michael for the first time at their engagement portraits last February. What do you know? They're both good looking and funny, making my job so easy.

Michael and Jen had a family-centered wedding ceremony, followed by one heck of a fun, Aggie reception. I wasn't booked for the whole evening, and was a little bummed to leave with the party going strong! I think four years spent in College Station must provide good boot scootin' practice - I haven't shot an Aggie wedding yet without a full dance floor all night long! Be sure to get a look at their wedding cake. I love the elegant solution of combining the groom's and bride's cakes; props to the Village Bakery in Tyler on that!
