Choosing to host your wedding in the small quaint town of Fredericksburg, Texas allows any couple to have an intimate, sweet get-a-way on their big day. High school sweethearts Chad and Nicole decided light ivory gowns and dark maroon florals set the tone for their romantic small town wedding at the Hoffman Haus. As if Fredericksburg was made for them two, Chad and Nicole weren’t afraid to explore the surrounding areas in the hopes of capturing romantic moments with amazing photographer Amber Vickery. And, my oh my they did!

The Inspiration:

Here’s a little insight about the day from Chad and Nicole’s wedding photographer Amber Vickery:

It was pretty incredible photographing the wedding of these two long time loves.  Nicole and Chad met in high school, fell for each other, and went off to separate colleges. They had a long distance love for many years before making the move to Brooklyn, NY together to pursue their dreams together in the big city – hers being an architect and his being a film maker.  After more than 10 years together they said their “I do’s” in an intimate ceremony at Hoffman Haus in Fredericksburg, TX with 60 of their closest friends and family members. The wedding was classically composed with rich florals and personal touches.  Nicole actually designed her dress herself,  many of the plates and flatware were family heirlooms, and the car that they drove away in was Chad’s first car, given to him at 16 and the first car that he picked Nicole up in when they were teenagers.  So much love went into the planning of this incredibly romantic day.  I’m so honored to have documented it!
