How important is text messages when assembling your k1 visa packet 

What text messages are you referring to? If you are talking about providing proof of your relationship, the only thing you need is proof that you have met at least once in a two years period. 

 

Airline tickets, receipts, hotel reservations, passport stamp, photos together

They are not important at all because they don't provide evidence of meeting face to face within the prior two years.  Same would be true with photos 

YMMV

What Evidence Must You Submit?

 

You must submit all evidence requested in these Instructions with your petition. If you fail to submit required evidence, USCIS may reject or deny your petition for failure to submit requested evidence or supporting documents in accordance with 8 CFR part 103.2(b)(1) and these Instructions.

 

Submit the primary evidence listed below to support your petition. If a primary evidence document is not available, you must submit a statement from the appropriate civil authority certifying that the primary evidence is not available.

 

You must then submit secondary evidence such as church or school records, baptismal certificates, U.S. census records, or other evidence to support your claim. If you can establish that secondary evidence is not available, you may submit two or more sworn affidavits by persons who are not parties to your petition, who were living at the time of the event, and who have direct personal knowledge of the event.

 

For additional information on required documentation, see the USCIS website at www.uscis.gov/I-129F or refer to theregulations in 8 CFR 214.2(k) that governs petitions for non-immigrant alien fiancé(e)s and spouses.

  1. Evidence of U.S. citizenship which may include any of the following:
    1. A copy of your birth certificate issued by a U.S. civil authority;
    2. A copy of your original Certificate of Naturalization;
    3. A copy of your original Certificate of Citizenship;
    4. A copy of your Form FS-240, Report of Birth Abroad of a Citizen of the United States;
    5. A copy of your valid, unexpired U.S. passport or passport card issued with a validity period of at least five years;
      or
    6. A statement executed by a U.S. consular officer certifying that you are a U.S. citizen and the bearer of a currently valid U.S. passport.

 

Also this: In-Person Meeting. Submit evidence that you and your fiancé(e) met in person during the 2-year period immediately before you filed this petition. Evidence of this meeting may include, but is not limited to, a written statement from you and/or your fiancé(e) stating the circumstances of your meeting, a copy of airline tickets, passport pages, or other evidence. If you believe you qualify for an exception to the in-person meeting requirement, submit evidence in support of the exception. If you claim that the in-person meeting requirement would result in extreme hardship to you, submit evidence to support your claim. If you claim that the in-person meeting requirement would violate strict and long-established customs of your fiancé(e)’s foreign culture or social practice, include evidence that any and all aspects of the traditional arrangements have been or will be met in accordance with the custom or practice.
