Patrice & Willie’s Stoneleigh Hotel Dallas Wedding

I just love photographing sweet Texas weddings at the historic Stoneleigh Hotel in Dallas and how eclectic the location is. Margaret and her wedding planning team with Precious Creations outdid themselves with this afternoon wedding. There were so many beautiful, personalized & meaningful details throughout. And the weather….we really lucked out on this July day in Texas for photography with temps below 100 degrees. It was a magical wedding day and so beautiful to photograph.

I met Willie and Patrice during the planning stages of their wedding at the Stoneleigh. We talked about their wedding photography and what they envisioned for the day. They sat across from me and shared such sweet words and I was able to see how special their relationship was. I was excited to work with them and watch their love unfold in front of my camera. I kept referring to Willie as a big teddy bear. He’s a total softy and truly in love with this gorgeous stunner, Patrice. Such a sincere sweet man. Patrice was giddy all day and excited to marry the love of her life. They had a heart-felt afternoon wedding ceremony complete with a sand ceremony to symbolize the joining of their families. There was gorgeous sparkles everywhere, from their wedding bands to bridesmaid’s shoes to the beautiful broach in Patrice’s wedding bouquet. The flower girls were wearing adorable in angel wings. Everyone made me feel so warm and welcome. It was a beautiful afternoon wedding and I was honored to have been there to document it. Thank you both for choosing me to photograph your wedding and I wish you many years of love and laughter. May each day be better than the last!
