Wedding Bells

Their story is one that would sell out movie theaters during prime movie season. They met and dated over the long distance from California to Texas. When the time was right, James surprised Jacque by not only moving to the Lone Star State but also by asking for her hand in marriage in the beautiful home she had once said was her dream home. Oh, and it also happened to be the home he had purchased in secret for their new life together. Surprise! That home was the perfect setting for their engagement AND marriage ceremony. And like every good romantic movie, there was not a dry eye in the house during this touching event. Jacque's sweet young son Nicholas was the ringbearer, and he didn't know that he would also be receiving his own special ring during the ceremony. One of my favorite moments (sniff) was when Jacque and James pledged to Nicholas vows that every young man would feel affirmed in love to hear from his parents. What a moving ceremony! I assisted in shooting this beautiful wedding with the fabulous Heather Mabry with Eclectic Images, and it was such a treat to shoot with her again!





Jacque and her mother have the most amazing smiles.


Nicholas gave his mom a "Secret Admirer" note before the wedding. Adorable!


James was so touched when he saw beautiful Jacque for the first time!
No one could keep it together! :)



There was love and war going on at the house that day!
