Rock Lake Ranch | Kim and Josh’s Wedding

October 6, 2015

Can you just take a moment and picture the prettiest outside weather of your life? Cool breezes blowing, sun lowering behind the tree line to cast light shadows, a bed of lush green grass. This scene has picnicwritten all over it. Seriously, can I just fall asleep with a good book open next to me […]

Can you just take a moment and picture the prettiest outside weather of your life? Cool breezes blowing, sun lowering behind the tree line to cast light shadows, a bed of lush green grass. This scene has picnicwritten all over it.

Seriously, can I just fall asleep with a good book open next to me on a quilt?

Now, what you just imagined, insert Bride Kim and Groom Josh, love all around and happiness beyond compare. This was the wedding day at Rock Lake Ranch in College Station, TX.

At this point you are probably completely drawn in, as you should be. Words truly can not describe the lighthearted feeling I had as I pulled up to the Carriage House, a small wooden, 1900s restoration home located on a vast ranch next to a pond complete with dock and duck!

One thing I absolutely love love love about small weddings is how much more involved and hands on I get to be. Events tend to move in slow motion as we laugh, joke and get to know one another. This part is where we become ‘besties’ for the day! hehe

If you’re into gold sequins and blush bouquets keep scrolling. There are sunset pictures below that will make you sigh out loud. And do not forget to comment at the bottom which photo is your favorite and why!

A note to Kim and Josh – I should have expected I’d be falling in love with October 2nd. I mean your engagement shoot still holds my heart to this day. The only thing I missed from your wedding day was a little bark from Lady and Jax!

What can I say that will tell you “Thank you” enough? I’m not sure I can type it out. The fact that you laughed at my corny jokes and included me in all the small things told me that you two are unique. You’re going to have a stinking amazing life together as man and wife, and I’m so happy I got to be there for the start of things.

I loved how the bride used blush and gold as the sequined colors of her bridesmaid dresses. They perfectly accented the jewels in Kim’s wedding dress!

The sunlight through the trees brought a golden touch to every picture we took, and especially glimmered off the sequined dresses.
