Kailey and Mason’s December wedding day was the perfect mix of glam and winter wonderland. From their sparkly string lights to their snow exit, every detail of this day was perfectly winter themed.
Mix together a sunny and cool day, winter woodsy decor, boho vibes and the worlds cutest couple and you get the December wedding of Kailey + Mason. These two reached out to me a little over a year before their wedding and I was thrilled to get to know them better! After their engagement session I knew that their day would be an absolute blast and I couldn’t wait to celebrate them!
Some of my favorite parts of the day were Masons face as he saw Kailey for the first time, seeing them get ready surrounded by their friends and family, and of course, the dreamiest light that shined on these two love birds. This winter wedding day was filled with wonderful little details but the best part was how Kailey and Mason focused on each other through every moment. It was truly special and I can’t wait to see where life takes them!
HOW DID YOU TWO MEET?
Mason and I met at Texas Tech University through friends – even though we are both from Ft Worth! We immediately were interested and began dating after 2 weeks. We attended Tech together, then Mason graduated and moved back to Fort Worth while I finished my Undergrad degree. I graduated a semester later and moved back to Fort Worth. Mason and I dated for 5 years, and then got engaged at the beach on a family trip in July 2018! Had an amazing engagement experience and loved wedding planning – we have two dogs and two cats and are absolutely loving married life!
WHAT MADE YOU GUYS FALL IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER?
// Kailey’s Answer
I fell in love with Mason and knew I wanted to marry him when I realized that he wouldn’t ever give up on us. He is always the even-tempered, calm spirit in our relationship and has always reassured me that this was right and that we would do whatever it takes to make it work.
// Mason’s Answer
Kailey’s heart made me fall in love with her. She is always looking to help other people and truly is the most selfless person I know. She has always made me feel comfortable and ever since I met her she has always felt like home. Kailey has seen me at my best and she has seen me at my worst, but she has loved me through it all. She is my anchor and I am blessed to be able to call her my wife. I knew I wanted to marry her the moment she opened her heart to me and trusted me. I knew that this was a girl I could see myself with forever. She also aint bad to look at. 😉
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT EACH OTHER?
// Kailey’s Answer
I love his ability to make me feel safe, supported, and like I have a best friend and husband all in one. He is so open to learning about marriage and how to make this life full of love and always make each other feel special. It has been so cool to get to this point. We definitely haven’t always had this relationship but over the engagement and winter wedding process we’ve learned a lot and its been SO fun! He always calms my nerves and anxieties when I overthink or get stressed too 🙂
// Mason’s Answer
My favorite things about my wife are that she always keeps me smiling, she knows how to calm me down when things get tough, and she is my best friend. Kailey helps me see the big picture in life and pushes me everyday. I always told myself that I want someone in my life that would push me daily and Kailey always has. She is also a great cook which is a plus.
HOW DID YOU FEEL WAKING UP ON THE MORNING OF YOUR WEDDING?
// Kailey’s Answer
SO nervous. I felt sick the entire morning of our winter wedding just from nerves, and it felt so surreal. But Mason texted me that morning and it made me so excited and emotional. I was surrounded by the best family and friends and it was just so fun once the day got started.
// Mason’s Answer
I was nervous the entire night before into the morning. But i knew that I was about to marry the girl of my dreams so that made me beyond excited. As soon as I saw Kailey the nerves went away. (probably because I could tell that she was more nervous than me) but also because the excitement took over.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF YOUR WEDDING DAY?
// Kailey’s Answer
My favorite part of the wedding day was getting to spend all morning with everyone I love and just having the anticipation building. When me and Mason had our first touch with our parents praying over our marriage – that was pretty special. Also, after the ceremony – Mason and I took a minute alone in the bridal cottage just to absorb everything that happened and that was so special. (That didn’t really answer your question – the whole day was a favorite moment:))
// Mason’s Answer
My favorite part of our winter inspired wedding day had to be the moment that Kailey and me got to spend right after the ceremony in the grooms cottage. Everything was moving 100 mph and that moment slowed everything down and everything was calm. I will never forget the excitement that we were both feeling at that moment. I remember looking at Kailey and saying “we are finally married.” That 3 minutes that we got to spend together will always be my favorite part of the day. There were countless things that made that day awesome but that is what sticks out in my head when this question is asked.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Kailey and Mason were absolute DREAM clients. It’s not often that two people are brave enough to have their wedding ceremony outside in the winter. But DANG, I’m so glad they chose to do that! I loved getting to capture their day and get to know this sweet couple in the process. I pray that their marriage is just as perfect as their wintery wedding was!
