Corinne and Phillip had a simple yet elegant wedding at The Bryan Museum in Galveston, Texas, held in the fall just as the trees around the venue were starting to bloom again. This Galveston wedding was intimate, with no bridal party, but still included all the meaningful moments of a traditional celebration. The ceremony was held outdoors, with a five-piece mariachi band performing in the garden next to the ceremony site.

Afterward, guests enjoyed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres outside while the bride and groom took golden hour portraits around the museum’s beautiful gardens. Their grand entrance led straight into the first dance beneath the glass ceiling of The Bryan Museum Conservatory, as the setting sun lit the dance floor. The night continued with heartfelt toasts, cake cutting, and dancing—ending with a romantic horse and carriage send-off through the streets of downtown Galveston.

word of mouth

“We love working with Ryan!! He did an amazing job for our engagement photo shoot. Both me and my fiance are not very good at posing and sometimes quite shy in front of camera. Ryan was very professional and patient. We received over 400 edited photos (!!) in about 2 weeks and they are so great!! We highly recommend him!”
