The wedding day
On a crisp winter day, January 11th, 2025, two households became one. Jordan and Kristina joined together to profess their long-standing commitment to one another. Surrounded by nature, the scenic lake in New Braunfels made for an intimate backdrop for these two lovebirds.
Kristina glided down to Jordan. Her dress was cream, with an overlay of intricately designed lace. She wore a bejeweled crest in her hair. What made her look even more memorable? Her pink Converse! What a cute and comfortable way to get married! At the same time, Jordan sported a dusty lavender two piece suit with a navy vest coupled with a navy tie to give that extra pop of color.
In addition, one of the most endearing parts of the wedding day was seeing the little flower girl, Miss Kennedy—aka the bride’s daughter—shyly make her way to her mother, scattering rose petals along the path. Meanwhile, Jordan’s sister, Ali, officiated the wedding. The atmosphere was bubbly and light, full of sibling jokes and personalized touches. Afterward, the couple exchanged vows in front of their loved ones, and the crowd erupted in cheers as they were finally presented as the Millers!
The wedding after party
The celebration that followed was an absolute delight. To begin, the couple participated in a traditional cross glass drinking of wine. Next, Jordan and Kristina arrived at the Oyster Bar in New Braunfels. They kicked things off with delicious dishes from the menu, and a second tradition of cutting the cake, followed by the infamous “breakfast shots.” These included a shot of maple dark liquor, a shot of orange juice, and a tiny square of candied bacon to top it off. As the evening continued, Friends and family gathered close, celebrating and singing along with the music overhead.
However, the party didn’t stop there. After the Oyster Bar, the reception continued at a karaoke bar—The Hoity Toit Beer Joint—where the vibe took a fun time-hop back into the ‘80s. Everyone was laughing, singing, and cheering on the rotating performers. To top it all off, the bride has talent! Kristina wowed the room with her rendition of “Blue” by LeAnn Rimes. As she finished, the whole bar erupted in applause. All in all, Jordan sure is one lucky fella—and I feel lucky too, having had the chance to photograph such a fun, spontaneous, and joy-filled wedding.
