It's always amazing to celebrate two people who have fallen in love and are ready to get married. But it’s even better when those two people are incredibly beautiful, incredibly kind, and incredibly delightful. That’s who Meagan and Tyler are. Their wedding weekend was above and beyond and we were thrilled to have been able to capture it all on film.
The weekend began on Thursday evening at True Vine Brewing Company where out-of-town guests could gather, meet, and hang out with Meagan and Tyler before the official wedding events began. Pizza, drinks, and karaoke were the staples of Thursday evening. Meagan and Tyler danced and sang classic songs with some of their closest family and lifelong friends.
Friday began with a bridal luncheon honoring Meagan at Willow Brook Country Club. It was such a gorgeous morning including the bride herself. Special toasts were given and there was a charm cake where each of the bridesmaids chose a sweet charm to remember Meagan.
The Rehearsal Dinner was that evening at The Grove. The atmosphere there was lively and classy. Open doors led outside to a beautiful area with lush greenery and blue skies. It was the perfect backdrop to more toasts and speeches. The food, drinks and the company were perfect for Meagan and Tyler.
Saturday morning began the wedding day details. The girls got ready at the lovely lake house at Lago del Pino. The girls lounged in their matching pajamas and enjoyed visiting before the busyness of the day began. The guys hung out together as well playing outdoor games, chatting, and eating barbecue.
Meagan and Tyler decided not to have a first look, so it was of high importance to get photos and film without them seeing each other. Luckily, Marvin United Methodist Church is a large facility and we could easily coordinate locations. Meagan had special moments with her mother, aunt, grandmother, father, step-father, and two brothers. The best reaction to seeing Meagan in her lovely wedding gown was, of course, her bridesmaids! Meagan had a unique blue bow on the back of her dress matching her bridesmaids' dress color and her flower girls. It was so sweet. Another unique aspect was that Meagan’s bridal bouquet was made of orchids! Such a lovely touch! Meagan also, gifted Tyler with a special bow tie for the occasion. Many details of their day were unnoticed by the multitude but had huge sentimental value to the couple. Meagan wore her grandmother's garter. Tyler wore Meagan’s grandfather’s black cowboy boots and his own grandfather’s wedding band. Everything that this couple wanted to incorporate into their day was thoughtfully considered.
When Meagan walked down the aisle, you could see Tyler’s expression. He even had to look down a few times, keeping his composure, but in awe of her being his bride. The wedding was officiated by Meagan’s uncle, Josh Jernigan. A prayer was said by Meagan’s uncle, Jeff. The ceremony was so special and perfect for what this couple wanted.
The celebration was at Lago del Pino where there were tables of food, drinks, and a beautiful lake scene. When guests walked in they were greeted with a Champagne Wall full of glasses ready to sip. Finally, the bus rolled in with the bride, groom, and they were ready to party! Meagan and Tyler and family and friends danced the night away! More toasts and fireworks were other celebratory aspects to honor this happy couple. Nothing else could have topped their night! Meagan and Tyler were married on June 5, 2021, at Marvin United Methodist Church in Tyler, Texas.
