Cleveland, TX Backyard Wedding: Summer + David

From engagements, to bridals, to their special wedding day, everything was always vibrant, fun, and unique to them! And let me assure you, this was not your typical backyard wedding… This, instead, was a hand crafted, uniquely designed, and sentimental affair.

It was such a joy to have been able to work with Summer & David throughout the year!

From engagements, to bridals, to their special wedding day, everything was always vibrant, fun, and unique to them!

Summer and David got married in Cleveland, TX, not far outside of the Houston or Beaumont area, on her family’s property- right where she grew up! Now let me assure you, this was not your typical backyard wedding… This, instead, was a hand crafted, uniquely designed, and sentimental affair. You see, this is the same spot where Summer’s grandparents made their vows, so it was very important to her to be able to follow in their footsteps. From the custom crafted arch put together by her family, to the lemon tree that they planted for their unity ceremony, every detail was personalized.

Crazy enough, this wasn’t even their original plan! COVID-19 (drat COVID) caused this couple to pivot from their original plan of a traditional church wedding to this beautiful outdoor affair, but if you ask me, it couldn’t have been a more perfect day! And Summer was full of surprises, she even changed her wedding dress and shocked her bridesmaids at the big reveal. You can see their love and excitement below! ;)

**“The Codashians”, as we call them.**

**“The Codashians”, as we call them.**

These two sweet & sassy sisters contacted us so that they could surprise their parents with canvas prints for Christmas from their secret “sister session”. We have watched Meaghan and Morgan grow as we have worked with the church youth group, and boy are they a BLAST to work with!

Not only are they beautiful, but they can laugh on command! (#winning) If you don’t know these two, you should get to know them- they will brighten up your day every time.

Merry almost Christmas, everyone!

Christmas is always such a fun, special time, and we had an absolute BLAST with all of our awesome families and couples this year! We tried something new and ventured out to Holiday Acres Christmas Tree Farm, and it was sooo worth it! (It may be a new tradition, I’m still undecided!)

Our mini sessions brought us new friends and familiar faces, and so many sweet smiles. :) If you didn’t get in on the party of this year’s Christmas minis, we hope to see you next Christmas!
