Amanda + John

Amanda and John and about 75 of their closest family and friends shared in a beautifully intimate wedding weekend at Post Oaks Lodge. Most of their family and friends came from out of town, staying at the lodge, to celebrate the gorgeous couple’s special day so they were able to not only spend a day together but a few. The wedding and reception simply capped off a weekend of festivities.

Amanda looked stunning in her wedding dress adorned with simple intricate pieces of lace on the bodice and a classic tiara. She and her attendants carried elegant bouquets of white roses and her adorable flower girl even donned a head wreath of roses. As Amanda made her appearance coming down the isle, John couldn’t hide his tears with her beauty and his excitement overcoming him with emotion. The ceremony  was officiated by Amanda’s father and was extremely special and personal, relating stories and personal messages to the bride and groom. To make it even more intimate John’s brother sang and played guitar for the couple’s special ceremony music.

After the ceremony everyone headed into the main room as Amanda and John and their bridal party were introduced and went straight into dancing and a delicious meal. As the couple danced their first dance you would have thought they were the only two people in the room. They were completely lost in each other and you could just see the love they shared was so strong and real. Moments like these make you realize that the vows  Amanda and John just took aren’t going to simply be words but a way of life for them, something so special and perfect! When their first song ended they snapped back to entertaining mode and made their way around the room greeting guests and enjoying all their company. Some quick photos outside really showcased Amanda’s beautiful dress and the ring John picked out from Israel Diamonds.

DJ Connection made sure there was lots of dancing and laughter throughout the evening. There were many experienced dancers on the floor all through the night swinging all over the floor and truly enjoying themselves. When the party had finally died down guest sent the newlyweds off in a flurry of bubbles and cheers. It was truly a magical evening.
