Anything else you’d like to share about your wedding?

Loved all of my vendors. Emily Jean Photography and Jenn Robirds Events were the best. We received compliments on the food, the DJ, everything went smoothly because of our vendors.

Any tips you’d give brides and grooms planning their wedding today?

  • Shorten your guest list, be careful with the guest list. Don’t invite neighbors with no guest count limit on it.
  • Don’t go crazy with the catering. We could’ve skimped more on the food.
  • Get a coordinator. That was one of the best decisions we made.
  • Not everyone will eat dessert, so no need to order extra, we had tons of left overs.
  • I would suggest a small bridal party. Ours in my mind was too big, although I loved everyone dearly.

What would you have done differently if you had the chance?

Lessen the guest list, lessen the cost for food, perhaps purchase a cheaper wedding dress. Other than that, we loved everything.

#STYLEDSHOOTSUNDAY // For today’s #StyledShootSu #STYLEDSHOOTSUNDAY // For today’s #StyledShootSunday, we feature a styled shoot set against the sweeping backdrop of The Ranch at Lone Oak Longhorns that is a vision of modern elegance and refined luxury, with light, lovely and (dare we say) dreamy details. Every element was thoughtfully curated to inspire couples dreaming of a celebration that feels both elevated and unforgettable. From the lavish florals artfully designed to frame each moment, to the chic tablescapes adorned with statement décor, the atmosphere effortlessly blends sophistication with a sense of warmth and romance. Our real couple models, Kirsten & Courtland, brought the story to life with genuine chemistry, making every detail—from the designer gowns to the vintage getaway car—feel even more timeless. Add to all of that, the majestic longhorns and it equals some pretty epic photos, don’t you think? Head on over to our blog to see more:  https://realweddingsmag.com/dreamy-spring-vibes-wedding-inspiration-styled-shoot-at-the-ranch-at-lone-oak-longhorns/
