The evening before Hilary and Jackson’s wedding was nothing short of heartfelt and beautiful. Hosted at La Palmilla in Glen Rose, Texas, their rehearsal dinner set the tone for a weekend full of joy, intentionality, and deep connection. I had the honor of photographing this special night, surrounded by their closest family and friends.

Every detail reflected their love story — from the handwritten place cards for the bridal party to the custom cookies — but what stood out most was the warmth in the room. Laughter, hugs, and a few happy tears flowed freely as their people gathered to celebrate a love grounded in faith, friendship, and family.

What made the evening truly unforgettable was how clearly Hilary and Jackson placed God at the center of their relationship and future marriage. Prayers and blessings filled the air, making it clear that this couple is stepping into marriage with purpose and a strong foundation.

If you’re considering a rehearsal dinner in Glen Rose, La Palmilla offers the perfect blend of elegance and intimacy for a gathering like this. It was the perfect backdrop for an evening full of love and legacy.
