There are weddings that feel magical from start to finish, and Sarah and Brady’s fairytale celebration at Brighton Abbey was exactly that. As a Dallas wedding photographer, capturing a love story filled with enchanted details, Cinderella-inspired touches, and heartfelt moments was an absolute dream.
This stunning venue—one of the most beloved ceremony spaces for Dallas brides—was the perfect backdrop for Sarah’s vision of elegance, whimsy, and princess-like charm.
Sarah has always loved all things magical, romantic, and whimsical. Her stunning gown, flowing hair, and carefully chosen details were straight out of an enchanted storybook. From the invitation suite to her accessories, every element reflected her dream of a Cinderella-inspired wedding.
Before the big day, we photographed their engagement session in Fort Worth, surrounded by vibrant flowers and golden light—timeless images that showed their connection long before they walked down the aisle.
The morning at Brighton Abbey was filled with anticipation, laughter, and touching moments. Sarah shared a deeply emotional first look with her parents, a moment filled with tears and pride as they saw their daughter truly shining.
Then came one of the most romantic first looks we’ve witnessed as Dallas wedding photographers:
Brady walked toward the staircase strumming his guitar, his music filling the venue as he approached Sarah for the first time. Their first look was emotional, intimate, and utterly unforgettable.
The indoor ceremony took place in Brighton Abbey’s iconic chapel, a breathtaking room with tall windows that fill the space with natural light. Surrounded by family and close friends, Sarah and Brady exchanged vows in a heartfelt ceremony enriched by meaningful moments.
Instead of traditional readings, each bridesmaid stood up and shared a special speech. Their words brought laughter, tears, and a deep sense of community—something we love capturing as a Dallas wedding photographer.
After the ceremony, we photographed family and bridal party portraits before moving into a beautiful private moment between Sarah and Brady:
their foot-washing ceremony, a gesture of humility, service, and devotion.
The reception was full of personality—just like Sarah and Brady. They enjoyed In-N-Out Burger for dinner, and the restaurant surprised them with a thoughtful wedding gift.
Their first dance was a beautiful moment under the twinkling lights of the reception hall. Guests watched with full hearts as the newlyweds held each other close, savoring every second.
Then came one of the most iconic moments of the night:
the cake cutting with a sword—a true fairytale touch that fit perfectly with Sarah’s princess theme.
The rest of the evening was full of laughter, dancing, and celebration. Their guests made sure the dance floor stayed full, and Sarah and Brady soaked up every moment of joy and love.
Sarah and Brady’s wedding was a celebration overflowing with emotion, beauty, and meaning. The enchanted details, heartfelt moments, and joyful energy made it a day they will cherish forever—and as their Dallas wedding photographer, it was an honor to preserve every detail of their dream wedding at Brighton Abbey.
