Wedding at the Houston Zoo

This wedding at the Zoo was It was filled with love and laugher! One of the bucket list for me was to photograph at the Houston Zoo. This Houston Zoo wedding was one for the books.

Bradley and Leslie’s ceremony was at the beautiful West University Baptist Church, TX Bradley actually works at the church. So Leslie decided to play a small prank to her future hubby. Let’s just say it included toilet paper and shaving cream.

Leslie was such a gorgeous bride with a off white lace dress, she reminds me of Taylor Swift. Do you see the resemblance?? I kept telling myself, she looked like someone but I couldn’t put my finger on it. Then it hit me! TAYLOR SWIFT!!! Honestly, I believe Leslie is much prettier in my opinion.

Bradley and the boys where having a good old time, playing tunes on the piano, singing, laughing and enjoying each other’s company. They helped each other put small bible verses on the bottom of Brandley’s shoes. A small tradition they have everytime someone gets married.

At the reception there was an Animal Experience which zookeepers brought out 4 different animals, snake, baby crocodile, turtle, & an iguana.If you know me I am not big fan of snakes but it was something seeing one that isn’t behind a glass. With of course, a Aggie War Hymn tribute. Everyone the night away jamming with a live band.

Leslie and Bradley’s send off was super cute with embroidered 12th man towels. I love a uniqure exit! I believe Houston Zoo Weddings are here to stay. It was so much fun working with Emily from Dreamy Elk Photography.
