Weddings Texas style – Boots & Couture

In October, we showcased one of our photographers, Thisbe Grace, who shared her beautiful images of an engagement shoot in a field of Texas wildflowers and the bride wore boots. Well, the bride and groom, Lindsey and Rusty, are now married. Wedding planner, Jordan Payne, shared these additional photos by Thisbe of this sweet (and we bet a little bit sassy) wedding.

The Bride wore Boots

Our new Dallas photography partner, Thisbe Grace put together another bridal inspiration for StrictlyWeddings.com, this time, the bride wore boots (and an Oscar de la Renta gown).
