The 1906 Open House

The 1906
This past weekend we were honored with being one of the first vendors at a newly restored, one of a kind wedding venue in Texas.
Located in Whitesboro, TX, the 1906 is a restored church that was built in 1906. In 2013, after 4 decades since it was last inhabited, restoration began in the historic building. The restoration included stained glass, ceiling tiles, and hardwood floors by the original fabricators. We had an opportunity to talk with the owners who turned this abondoned church into a beautiful wedding venue. They truly care about their clients and want to provide them the space to create their one-of-a-kind storybook wedding. The 1906 features a wedding chapel to hold a marriage ceremony, an event center as well as a downstairs Union Lounge which is perfect for a reception or cocktail hour. We recommend to any engaged couple to visit and consider The 1906. It is a one-of-a-kind venue!

We were amazed by her work, especially the way she uses natural lighting and stays true to color. Her photography perfectly encapsulates the moment when the photo was taken, letting couples relive their special day for years to come. Lucero is bilingual, works in the DFW & surrounding areas, and is incredibly nice. It is not hard to see why so many couples entrust her with their special day.
