Christin and Eric are Married!

Another gorgeous day for a wedding! 🙂





Held at the venerable St James Catholic Church in Port Arthur Texas, Christin and Eric’s wedding was a mixture of retro, class and a huge side of fun!

We’ve been following Christin and Eric through their engagement session, her bridal portraits and finally they get married! 🙂
Here’s her beautiful retro wedding dress:





Christin begins to get ready for the big day (beautiful natural window light!):





Eric and his (grooms) men gathering forces:





As you can see… black tuxes/ties and Christin’s wedding dress – a little retro, all class 🙂 Some final prep before entering the church:





The ceremony, aided by St James’ event coordinator Jeff Lewis, went smoooooth… Here Christin takes a moment with her dad before walking down the aisle:





and the big moment arrives…














I just love the “We did it!” look on their faces 🙂 We may spend months and years planning the wedding and the ceremony is over so quickly… Limo ride to the Beaumont Country Club for the reception:





Wow! I’ve never seen the Beaumont Country Club looking better! It’s a great venue for a wedding reception – event coordinator Stephanie East had the place looking lush and elegant. Bando’s Catered the excellent food (coordinated by the extremely helpful Worley Antil (thank you Worley 🙂 )).
mmmmm… prime rib 🙂

Wait, have you seen the cake?





I’ll just say this, it looked almost as good as it tasted 😉

Back to the festivities… Eric and Christin in their first dance:





Some details in Stephanie’s and Worley’s work:





Pretty swanky! 🙂





Christin dances a bit with her dad:





Actually, Christin, her dad, and the WHOLE party danced a lot, not being completely through until well after midnight 🙂

Some more reception festivities like the cake cutting, sharing and the bouquet and garter toss:








For those interested, the full-size versions of these images are always available 🙂

The party does wind to a close eventually as Eric and Christin leave through a tunnel of sparklers:





A few more images below, thank you Eric and Christin for a great time and allowing me to be a part. 🙂
