Sydney and Caden's wedding looked nothing like it was supposed to. As was the case for most 2020 brides, the pandemic had a drastic impact on the wedding they had planned. They planned to get married at their dream venue in Taos, New Mexico but unfortunately, New Mexico was tightly locked down. With their hometown of Amarillo, Texas more open, they decided at the last minute to move their wedding home.

Sydney was disappointed but her vendors and her family came together to create a day for her and Caden that was just as gorgeous as their original wedding. They said their vows on the grounds of the Amarillo Botanical Gardens, surrounded by lush summer greenery and blooms. Their glamorous reception took place at the ballroom of the Embassy Suites in downtown Amarillo. After their energetic reception, they were sent off with sparklers in a vintage Ford Mustang.
