“Tracy is a bird who loves to fly,” Tracy’s mom described to everyone at the rehearsal dinner. But as she concluded (and I think everyone can agree) she couldn’t have landed in a better place than right in Matthew’s arms.
Tracy + Matt’s relationship began as a friendship. In fact, I don’t think that either of them would have guessed that their lives would have aligned so perfectly. They spent many nights growing their friendship over the phone and it wasn’t until Matt flew to see Tracy in Little Rock that they knew there was a deeper connection.
“Tracy G.” and “Matthew Lee” really are the perfect fit…and surely know how to enjoy life. I even felt a tear fall on the night of their rehearsal dinner when Tracy’s father said that he was 100% convinced Tracy + Matt were meant for each other. He said that he wished them the best and was so happy to have Matt as part of their family.
Their wedding was an explosion of Tracy + Matt’s personalities, inspired by the bold pack of crayola markers (a direct quote from Tracy). 🙂 It was quirky, fun, and bright! The venue was the Crowley Opera House…and the stage was beautifully lit by a gorgeous chandelier.
The color palette was Turqoise, Orange (Matt’s favorite color), Fuschia, and Plum. 😉 Tracy’s dress was her favorite detail (which I was obsessed with as well) and they made sure to incorporate their love for music and “nerdy” things into their wedding.
I am sooooo happy for the newlywed Mr. and Mrs. Wingler! Thank you, thank you 20 times over for choosing me as your photographer. It’s been a pleasure working with you from the start.
