Kendall & Adam - The 4Eleven (Fort Worth, TX)


Kendall & Adam's wedding story actually starts a little earlier. At the end of the summer this beautiful couple had their dream destination wedding in Maui, Hawaii! But, as with most destination weddings, not all of their friends and family were able to come, so here is where their Texas wedding reception begins.


I had spent the week keeping my eyes on the weather because I knew there was a chance of rain for Sunday. But Sunday morning rolled around and the forecast showed sun all day! However, because we live in Texas, the weather decided to surprise us. About an hour before I was supposed to leave for the venue the skies opened up and it RAINED. I'm talking like biblical flood amounts of rain, but we did not let that stop the fun!


We started off the evening with detail photos and the box that Kendall prepared for me was a photographers dream. So many little pieces and heirlooms that had the most incredible stories.

Wedding rings rest on an open Bible page in black and white.

Grandmas Bible

Kendall had her grandmothers bible in her detail box so of course I had to include that in some of her photos.

The rain stopped long enough for us to capture some photos of their wedding party and family as they began to arrive. We also got to bring their doggos in for a couple of photos which was so much fun!

Couple's Portraits

For couple's portraits we battled some light rain and incorporated this beautiful clear umbrella! The 4Eleven venue had a gorgeous greenery wall and the city streets / brick buildings made for some fun photos.


We managed to avoid more rain as we finished up couples portraits and moved inside for the party!

The Party!!!

The rest of the evening was one big party! Kendall & Adam had a grand entrance and typical dances you would have at any wedding then enjoyed the night with their family and friends. The live band kept the atmosphere very lively and made for some great dancing photos.
