Southwest School of Arts Wedding

From the moment you meet either Nick or Kristen, you know that they are special.  Put them together, and you get perfection.  Nick is a University of Texas and St. Mary's University graduate practicing law in San Antonio.  Kristen is a landscape architect originally from Atlanta, Georgia and transplanted to San Antonio.  They separately joined an online dating website, and despite their skepticism over online dating, met and fell in love.

Nick and Kristen were married at the the historic Southwest School of Art and Craft in downtown San Antonio, Texas on a perfect spring day.  The wedding ceremony took place outside in the lush courtyard against the beautiful large gazebo.  Nick wore his signature bow tie and family heirloom shirt buttons and cuff links, gifted to his grandfather by President Lyndon B. Johnson.  Nick's groomsmen all looked similarly smart in their bow ties.  Kristen walked down the aisle on her father's arm wearing a strapless, white lace gown with crystal detailing at the waist and a bouquet with her grandmother's charms hanging from it.   Kristen's bridesmaids wore different blush toned dresses to match the flowers at the ceremony and reception.  

The reception was held inside the dramatic gothic Coates Chapel.  Each table featured a selfie stick for guests to play with and they were a huge hit! The meal consisted of a delicious catered dinner and not one, but two, dessert tables displaying multiple wedding cakes, cookies, brownies and a candy buffet.  Nick and Kristen danced to "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" and it was the perfect song.  Nick truly could not keep his eyes off his beautiful bride the whole evening.  

We wish you both a lifetime of happiness together!  Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your day and Go Spurs Go!
