Set in the hills of Boerne, Texas, Sydney and Caleb’s wedding at Dos Palomas Ranch was the kind of day that felt naturally beautiful—both in style and spirit. The couple exchanged vows overlooking The Bluff, then welcomed guests into a warm, candlelit reception filled with laughter, music, and thoughtful details.
This wedding was especially meaningful to me. Caleb is my brother, and while I had an associate team capturing the day, I had the honor of editing the images—something I don’t take lightly. Knowing the people behind the moments made the work even more personal.
The Venue: Dos Palomas Ranch
Everything—from getting ready to the final send-off—took place at Dos Palomas Ranch, just outside San Antonio. It’s a venue that’s both refined and relaxed, offering expansive Hill Country views, modern amenities, and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
A Smooth and Personal Timeline
Sydney and Caleb chose to do a first look, giving them a quiet moment together before the day really unfolded. It also allowed for wedding party portraits ahead of the ceremony, freeing them up to enjoy more of the reception and greet each guest as they went inside for dinner.
The ceremony itself felt grounded and intentional. With live strings from Castle Hill Quartet, meaningful song selections, and family members woven into the processional, the tone was heartfelt.
Reception Under the Stars
Inside the reception space, guests were greeted with candlelight, seasonal florals by The Petal Artist, and a layout that encouraged connection. Dinner was served buffet-style by Jimmy Lynn’s Catering, and the night moved easily into toasts, dancing, and a visit from Mini Donut Lab.
Caleb and Sydney danced the night away underneath the Texas Hill Country stars. They ended the night with a private last dance before their sparkler exit—a quiet, unscripted pause before the end of a full, joyful day.
