The Chaparral Ballroom at the Dallas Sheraton provided an amazing backdrop for Liz & Frank’s reception: the city views from the ballroom were breathtaking while the walls of windows gave the room an airy, soft feel as the sun set.

The guests were welcomed with mariachis during the cocktail hour in the foyer. . .
