So, true story! I met Melanie and Dillon in the parking lot of an auto parts store. Haha! 🙂

My family traveled with me to a wedding and hung out at the lake and hotel while I covered a wonderful wedding the night before. We were on our way back, and had stopped at the auto parts store. My husband saw their jet ski and we had ours on the back of our Tahoe and started talking to Dillon. I think we had the same brand jet ski and Dillon mentioned they were getting married. He is such a proud hubby and had me give them my card, ha. 🙂

Melanie told me how they met and I thought it was the funniest and cutest story. Her vehicle was broken down on the side of the road and Dillon stopped to help her. And the rest is history for these two love birds. She told me some funny parts of that story that had me laughing away, with my two boys entertaining us as well. Melanie contacted me a few months later and booked me for her wedding! I was so excited to be working with them.

What I really love about this couple is that they can have fun together and really compliment each other. Their wedding was held at the Texas Agricultural Chapel and Center just past Austin, TX in Seguin, TX. I love that chapel!!! Whether it is summer, winter, fall, or spring the lighting is PERFECT. I loved Melanie’s choice in colors and her decision to make it classy in a simple chapel setting and a rustic reception area. It really made her choice of classy really pop. Loved it! 

Melanie chose the first look with her grandfather and her grandmother. She used the same jewelry as her grandma and same penny her grandfather gave to her grandmother to put in her shoe on her wedding day. Super special moment right there! The judge doing the ceremony had everyone listening closely. She was so entertaining and professional at the same time. The bridal party was funny and excited for Melanie and Dillon on their wedding day. Melanie and Dillon’s first dance had a funny twist. The dance floor was open the rest of the evening to the pleasure of her family and friends who enjoyed the variety of music and awesome food!
