If you’re dreaming of a
Copper Door wedding with warm Hill Country light, wide-open skies, and a dance floor under the stars—Isaiah & Kelsey’s November celebration shows exactly how magical this La Vernia venue can be.
From the minute we arrived, the Copper Door’s modern lodge exterior and big picture windows gave us gorgeous lines for portraits. After sunset, the textured stone and stained-glass entry glowed—perfect for a romantic night shot before the party kicked off.
Getting Ready & The Guys
Isaiah got ready on site in a crisp blue suit and champagne tie—clean, classic, and so photogenic in the Copper Door’s natural light. The groomsmen celebrated with custom maroon koozies (a fun nod to fall colors) before we headed out for portraits. One of our favorite frames? The crew hoisting Isaiah in front of the venue’s facade—pure joy, big laughs, and a great way to kick off the gallery.
Ceremony & Family Moments
Kelsey walked the aisle with her dad, bouquet full of moody blues, ivory, and dried textures—perfect for a
November wedding at Copper Door. After the “I do’s,” we grabbed a few portraits at the ceremony arbor and then invited parents and grandparents in for a generational kiss photo that everyone will treasure for decades. (Bring tissues for that one.)
Golden Hour & Newlyweds
As the sun dropped, we slipped away for couples’ portraits around the main entrance and steps. The textured stone, the rich wood doors, the soft November light—it’s a dream combo for editorial-style images without leaving the property.
Outdoor Reception Under the Lights
Copper Door really shines at night. Bistro lights framed the outdoor dance floor for Isaiah & Kelsey’s first dance—wide-angle views with the venue twinkling behind them and tighter shots with cinematic color from the DJ lights. Later, we pulled everyone together for a big group photo: heart-shaped shades, friends cheering, and the kind of energy that says “best night ever.”
Isaiah & Kelsey—thank you for trusting us to photograph your
Copper Door wedding. If you’re dreaming of a
Copper Door wedding with warm Hill Country light… As
San Antonio wedding photographers, we love how this venue photographs at sunset.
