Allison and Garrett’s Rock Lake Ranch wedding was absolutely stunning! From Allison’s incredible blush dress to thecolorful floral tothe gorgeous after-ceremony lighting, this wedding surpassed my expectations!
I first met Allison and her mother at the Brazos Valley Bridal Show about fourmonths ago, and I hadbeen eagerly awaiting her wedding ever since.Everything went exactly as planned (which is incredibly rare in the wedding industry!) and the weather was absolutely perfect. In fact, it was one of the only sunny days we have had in College Station in a few weeks!
I’m so glad I had the opportunity to photograph Allison and Garrett’s wedding day, and I wish them all the best as they start their journey as husband and wife!
Now here are some fun facts about the newlyweds:
When and how did you meet?
We went to elementary school- high school together. Middle school is when we actually acknowledged each other, I though he was weird! (haha) It was not until his senior year, my junior year that I thought he was cute and we started dating my senior year!
How did he propose?
It was Monday night, the Emmy’s were on, and I was watching them downstairs. We ate dinner and cleaned up and he turned on the Formula One race… So I went upstairs to watch the rest of the Emmy’s. 10 minutes later, he called for me to come down because there was “something cool” on TV (usually I would not have gone down but I did). He was not down there when I got down, there was nothing cool on TV, so I looked outside. He had lit up the back yard with lights, candles, and on the table was a bottle of champagne and him standing there with the biggest smile I have ever seen! I walked outside, went to him, and I started shaking! It took him a second to start talking but he said “you know I love you right?!” I said “yes..” He got down on one knee and asked me! I said yes! and I could not stop saying yes and kissing him he had to ask me “so do I put this on your finger now..” and I finally let him put the ring on my finger and I was stunned! And of course I had to call EVERYONE after that! I think I was shaking for a good 30 minuets after ???? But it was magical, unexpected and so perfect!
