Kristin & Conor’s Intimate Blue & Terracotta Wedding at Magnolia Terrace in Frisco, TX

Joyful wedding couple sitting on wooden bench surrounded by lush greenery.

Kristin and Conor’s Magnolia Terrace wedding in Frisco, Texas, showed just how magical an intimate celebration can be! This dreamy garden gathering, with just 60 of the couple’s closest family and friends, felt incredibly personal and full of love. Their warm blue and terracotta color palette exuded a romantic vibe, perfectly complementing the relaxed, joyful atmosphere of this November wedding.

The couple planned their wedding from Alaska while Conor was stationed there for military service, so every detail was thoughtfully chosen to make the day truly special. As their wedding photographer, I had the honor of capturing their love story, and I knew from the moment I met them that their wedding would be a beautiful reflection of who they are together.

Getting Ready: A Relaxed & Joyful Start

Kristin and her bridesmaids got ready at a cozy Airbnb just minutes away from Magnolia Terrace. Dressed in velour tracksuits and white heart sunglasses, they set the tone for the day with laughter and fun—the getting-ready process felt more like a girls’ day than a formal pre-wedding routine!

Kristin’s bridal gown, a Tiffany blue floral-embroidered dress by Teuta Matoshi, was a breathtaking and unexpected twist on a traditional wedding dress, featuring custom bejeweled straps that added a unique, personal touch. For accessories, her floor-length veil was adorned with pearls and her heirloom necklace was made from her grandmother’s ring.

Outdoor Ceremony in Magnolia Terrace’s Romantic Garden

Set in a lush garden under twinkling string lights and elegant chandeliers, Kristin and Conner’s sunset ceremony at Magnolia Terrace felt like it was straight out of a dream. As Kristin walked down the aisle in her stunning blue bridal gown, all eyes were on her, and Conner’s reaction said it all—pure love and admiration. The couple opted for a unique glass-bead unity ceremony, symbolizing their lives coming together in a beautifully artistic way.

A Laid-Back Reception Full of Laughter & Fun

Kristin and Conner’s reception was as relaxed and fun as they are. Guests enjoyed a cheesecake bar instead of a traditional wedding cake, and the couple shared a sweet first bite moment together. The reception space featured a custom neon sign on a greenery wall, adding a modern, personalized touch. Later in the evening, Kristin reappeared in a white tea-length party dress and sneakers, ready to dance the night away with their closest friends. One of my favorite moments? Their private last dance before the big sparkler sendoff—just the two of them, soaking in every second of their best day ever.
