A Wedding Divided

This past weekend we attended our good friends, Shelley and Matt's wedding. The majority of the wedding weekend was centered around UT and Texas TECH and of course Shelley and Matt. Shelley is a devoted Red Raider and Matt is a football manager for the Horns. It might be a mystery to some how Matt and Shel survive football season year after year, but somehow they make it work.

The wedding weekend kicked off with the bridal brunch at Iguana Grill which overlooks Lake Travis. The view was amazing and it was so nice to see the lake so full and healthy.

After brunch, some members of the bridal party went to check out Lakeway Spa and Resort where the ceremony and reception were held and hung out by the pool before the rehearsal dinner. It is the perfect getaway resort even if you live in Austin.





After catching some rays and the rehearsal, we headed to the rehearsal dinner at the UT Club, which had a super cute "Tailgate" theme with sliders, fries, banana pudding and the works.





We were so excited to see Matt and Shell's engagement pics on the jumbo-tron at the stadium!!!



Mac Brown even made a video appearance and gave his congrats and best wishes to the bride and groom! As if that wasn't enough to make any longhorn fan freak out, Bevo made a guest appearance as well.




After we finished dinner, Matt's parents and the hosts for the evening, invited us down to the field to take pictures.





The wedding was absolutely beautiful as the groomsmen wore orange ties and the reception was colorfully decorated with bright pink feathers, purple lights and more orange of course! It look stunning and you could see all of Shelley and Matt's personal touches which made the wedding more special.







This is normally where I would insert a picture of Austin and me at the wedding, but Austin got a little too sunburned at the lake all day....well here it is anyway...ha!



The food was amazing, the party was fab and everyone had a wonderful time!!! Congrats to the Rutherfords!!!
