Mug Machine Super Post
Mug Machine Super Post

I have been so swamped the last couple of weeks that I have not had a chance to blog Mug Machine photos from the past few weddings.  Here are just a few of my favorites from the past 2 weeks worth of weddings.
(Oh, and current brides…. it’s not too late to add some Mug Machine goodness to your wedding.  Have your people call my people and we’ll work out the details.)

2 bridesmaids and super planner Kelly of East Texas Events.

Father of the bride.  He refused to get in the booth for 30 minutes.  He finally gave in and we got this shot.

Lindsey & Jonathan | Elmwood Gardens

Lindsey & Jonathan had a small wedding at Elmwood Gardens.  It was such a great laid back day, I wish all weddings could be as fun and chill as theirs was.

So I don’t think I have ever started a wedding post with a shot of the bride without her makeup on…. but Lindsey’s expression when she saw her bouquet was too good not to show.  La Tee Da Flowers ALWAYS gets this reaction from their brides.  I love being in the room when Barbra walks in each wedding.

undefinedundefined
Jonathan’s father recently passed away so Lindsey surprised him with these cufflinks at their First Look.
undefinedundefined
Jonathan is a DEA special agent so these seemed fitting.
undefined
Lots and lots of First Look chatting, laughing, & smiling.

TC Makeup came down from Dallas and did a terrific job.  (She also finished on time.  A HUGE plus when considering a makeup artist.)
undefined

Designs by D’Anne did they cakes.  She also just got a new website so get over there and take a look.
undefinedundefinedundefinedundefined
I love love love these fingerprint trees couples are having at their weddings.
undefinedundefinedAll The Single Ladies….

Reason 385 you need to hire a PROFESSIONAL DJ for your wedding:  About 5 seconds before the last dance was about to start Lindsey turned to Casey of CMBDJs and said, “can we change our last song to something fun and fast?”  (They had chosen a slow song a few weeks ago during one of their consultations.)

He asked her if she had a favorite and she said “uh…..”
1/2 a second later Casey suggested a song and had the whole place jumpin’
Every photo you see below happened because Casey knew just what to do and was able to react and make it happen in about 10 seconds.
The lesson?  Book a real DJ.

What song did he play?  You’ll have to call him to find out. 903.724.3192 :)

Gini & Charlie (The Mug Machine)

Another wedding at the Belgium House, another wedding with The Mug Machine.  Gini & Charlie tore it up!

undefinedundefined
I LOVE when families go through this thing.  Christmas card photo? Check.
undefinedundefinedundefinedundefined

This was part of the toast Gini’s dad gave.
“Two things I told Charlie when he asked for Gini’s hand
1. She knows how to shoot a gun.
2. I taught her.”

undefinedundefined
I feel a sense of urgency to get their photos edited and back to them quickly.

Gini & Charlie are full of great expressions.  They are some of the nicest people I have met and had such a great time hanging out with them on their wedding day at The Belgium House.  Let’s go right to the First Look!

undefinedundefined
After a few moments alone Gini gave Charlie his wedding day gift.
undefined
Then Charlie gave Gini her gift.  I think she liked it.
undefinedundefinedundefined
The Belgium House also offers you the option of having them do the flowers.  These came out terrific.
undefinedundefinedAnytime Lori’s Eats & Sweets is catering I can’t wait to get tot he reception. :)undefinedundefinedDJ Daddy Co kept the dance floor moving the rest of the day.undefined

I LOVE LOVE LOVE smaller weddings so when Molly 1st E-mailed me about her wedding that would be for immediate family only I was giddy!  It was such a relaxing day and I really felt honored being “included” in the day.

undefinedundefinedundefined
So even though the wedding was just family.  Molly still managed to fill a giant binder full of wedding planning.  Win-win.
undefinedundefined
Not a bad wedding venue.  If you are a bride looking to get married near millions of gallons of water and billions of grains of sand you should totally consider this place.
undefinedundefinedundefined
They ended their “normal” first dance and then went into an evolution of dance type mix.
undefinedundefinedundefined Thanks again for a great day.  Many many more images coming your way soon!

Note to brides:  If you are considering doing a super super small wedding you totally should do it.  I have never heard a bride regret or complain that their wedding was “too small”. :)
