Real Wedding: Kennedy-McElhaney

At the end of September, we had the privilege of orchestrating the fourth wedding (for four different daughters) in six years for the wonderful Kennedy family. Here is a sneak peek of photos from the special day from the wonderful Joseph Mark Photography.

Tracie married Chance McElhaney at the beautiful St. Andrews UMC in Plano, complete with a full musical celebration comprised of strings, a trumpet, an organ and the Texas Boys Choir.

The guests then celebrated the couple in grand style at the gorgeous Four Seasons in an elegant and romantic setting among dripping floral and crystals.

Tracie gave a nod to the fellas by allowing the phenomenal after party to carry a men’s lodge theme, including masculine mahogany furniture, an on-site cigar roller and a breakfast taco bar. Family and friends lined up to send Tracie and Chance off with flutterfetti and ribbon wands as the couple rode off on a golf cart trailing tin cans. The guests were then treated to a delicious cupcake favor to take home.

Watch this video from the fabulous Hakim Sons Films for highlights of the couple’s beautiful reception. Be sure to watch the whole video so you can check out the amazingly sweet toasts by the bride’s family!
