Rebecca and Caleb tied the knot in New Braunfels, Texas, and honestly, this day was one for the books. They celebrated at The Gardens of Cranesbury View, this gorgeous European-style garden estate out in the Hill Country. From start to finish, the whole thing felt warm and traditional, with family woven into every single moment.
Ceremony
Rebecca and Caleb said their vows at Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church, and it was a full traditional Catholic Mass. The setting alone was worth the trip.
This church is actually the oldest standing church in New Braunfels, built back in 1845 by German immigrants who settled the area. The Gothic Revival architecture gave everything this timeless, almost storybook quality that you just can’t fake.
Both families showed up in full force, including the couple’s daughter, who stole the show more than once. With a backdrop like that limestone church, every single shot felt like it belonged in a movie.
Reception
The reception was pure family energy from start to finish. Rebecca’s mom and her mother in law clearly put their hearts into decorating, and you could tell. The light blue and gray palette gave everything this soft, elegant vibe that tied the whole space together.
The kids had their own party going with a castle bounce house that kept them entertained the entire night. Both maids of honor gave speeches that had people tearing up, in the best way.
As the night wound down, everyone stepped outside for cigars under the stars. Rebecca and Caleb had their private dance, then made their exit through a sparkler tunnel that the DJ absolutely nailed with timing. Those sparkler shots are the ones we live for as San Antonio wedding photographers. With 32 acres of sculpted Italian gardens as our playground all day, The Gardens of Cranesbury View gave us endless spots to capture something beautiful.
