Sarah and Antone became Mr. and Mrs. Portillo on Saturday, September 12, 2020 at Leatherberry Oaks Weddings on a sunny day in Aquilla, Texas. The weather was so amazing - especially since Central Texas has recently had record breaking high temperatures and inches upon inches of rain!

These two are always fun to be around as they have so much love to give each other and genuinely enjoy each other’s company. During their engagement session, the love these two have for one another was contagious. They both have gorgeous smiles that can light up a room and bring a smile to all those around them. Their wedding day was full of love and support from their family and friends. Everyone enjoyed the wedding festivities!

I loved every bit of their wedding day, but my favorite part was the first look. Sarah really wanted to have a first look portion of the day and felt strongly that it was going to be just the two of them enjoying each other for a brief moment during their busy day. We decided that Sarah would be in the barn and Antone would be on the front step just outside the front door. Sarah would slowly push the doors open and walk up to Antone, cover his eyes and slowly turn him around so he could see her in the dress as his gorgeous bride. As she slowly spun him around and he looked at her, his eyes began to swell with tears. It was truly an emotional moment shared between the two of them.

Afterwards they moved onto family and bridal party portraits before the ceremony. This would allow them to be a part of their reception from the very beginning. These two put so much thought into the flow of the day. Everything was planned with intention.

I have no doubt that these two will live a life of happiness with one another. They truly put each other’s needs before their own and understand the importance of taking time for just the two of them - especially when things get busy.
