Although they didn&#8217;t interact much, fate brought them together a few months later when Kristina decided to try a dating app. It only took 24 hours for the couple to match, and they went on a date soon after. The bride says, &#8220;He was my very first and last Bumble date. The rest, as they say, is history.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>After a proposal in Cabo, the couple wed on September 24, 2022, at a hill country resort in San Antonio. The picturesque location was perfect for their special day, and the bride and groom exchanged rings from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/vendor\/shaftel-diamonds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shaftel Diamonds<\/a>, aside a breathtaking altar of baby&#8217;s breath and white roses.<\/p>\n<p>Before the reception, Kristina and Clayton had a &#8220;first look&#8221; of the grand ballroom. They shared a special moment as the band played their first dance song, &#8220;This Must Be The Place.&#8221; The bride says, &#8220;Clayton and I both got emotional taking it all in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The festivities continued with a simple but unique color scheme inspired by the tones of an oyster shell. Baby&#8217;s breath and warm candlelight decorated the long reception tables, while a couch for the couple served as a focal point of the room during the toasts.<\/p>\n<p>The night ended with a bang as the couple opted for a final dance with all of their guests instead of a traditional send-off. The band surprised them with the song &#8220;Don&#8217;t Stop Believin&#8217;,&#8221; and everyone sang and danced along as confetti rained down, creating a perfect ending to the night.<\/p>\n<p>One of the highlights of the wedding was the late-night snack. The bride says, &#8220;Because Clayton&#8217;s a big pizza lover, at the end of the night, we had branded pizza boxes and Pizza Hut for our guests. They were a huge hit and helped make for some epic photos.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Scroll down to see more stunning captures from Kristina and Clayton&#8217;s wedding in the San Antonio hill
