Heather + Chad :: Hitched

Posted on August 11th, 2009 by Kate. Filed in Weddings

After a short break from weddings (July was supposed to be my “vacation”, but it never works out as I plan for it to!), I am back and raring to go with a new one to show ya. Heather and Chad are the sweetest couple and I just absolutely adore their families and hilarious friends. It was a wonderful day…every single moment, and I hope these images transport Heather + Chad plus all of their guests right back to it.


First, Heather and the girls started the party off right at Haute Facade with my buddy, Kelly.
She’s only the BEST makeup artist/hair stylist in the DFW area!

Because I was there, I know that there was no pain really involved, but the flower girl’s aptitude for drama was nonetheless hilarious.

Loved Heather’s dress…the lace was gorgeous!

One flaw on the dress…there was no eye to put the hook into and Heather cute mom had to sew her in!

Love this shot. Nancy (the fabulous mom of the bride) had the most comfy slippers!

The dudes headed to the City Club to get ready for the festivities.

The two dads simultaneously check themselves.

Chad looked so dapper, but was still his adorably boyish, charming self.

Reading Chad’s letter to her, Heather’s tears started rolling.

Nicole, Heather’s super sweet BFF gave her toast and got choked up.
Chad, being the gentleman he is, gave her a handkerchief!

What a true blast it was working with you, Heather and Chad! Your families are the sweetest and your friends know how to shake it and I can’t wait to keep up with you guys as you grow together over the next few years. Big hugs to you both!

This was a fairy tale wedding and I’m so glad to have witnessed it. Everything was perfect…especially the bride. Chad was the perfect match for her. Good job! But that’s easy with the subjects. I wish you both the best life has to offer together.
