A Texas-Sized Ceremony Backdrop

02.28.14

We saw this beautiful and whimsical sign in Southern Weddings and just had to share it with you!

We so adore when couples get creative with bringing in their heritage to make their wedding more unique and representative of them. This hand-painted ceremony backdrop inspired by a favorite Texas anthem is just the thing for a couple of proud Lone Star State natives, and we just love it!

See more of this Texas-inspired styled shoot, Deep in the Heart of Texas, from SW’s V6 issue here.

p.s. We dare you to look at the shoot and try to not sing the song…

Year in Review: 2013 Real Weddings

02.26.14

Before we get too much further into 2014, we wanted to take a quick look back at some of the dazzling weddings our incredible team designed, planned and executed during 2013!

MOST ROMANTIC

This couple chose a sweet color palette of navy blue and pink accented with lots of romantic candlelight, lush flowers and chandeliers. It was the perfect mix for their intimate outdoor ceremony and charming reception.

MOST GLAM HEAD TABLE

This head table was nothing short of fabulous! Those bold colors, that glitzy gold and all that bling – oh-so-glamorous!

MOST PLAYFUL COLOR PALETTE & MOTIF

We adored this whimsical yet elegant color combo of yellow and grey, as well as the darling honeybee motif! This wedding was happy and fun!

MOST BEAUTIFUL RECEPTION DECOR

This stunning wedding was just over-the-top, with lush florals and gorgeous blue lighting that saturated the space.

BEST INCORPORATION OF SCHOOL SPIRIT
This fun wedding was OSU-crazy all the way! The Oklahoma City destination event was full of OSU orange details and nods to the couple’s beloved Cowboys throughout.


MOST STRIKING CAKE DISPLAY
Okay, it was too hard to choose only one. 2013 was a great year for gorgeous cakes, and we had fun with our brides devising the most beautiful ways to show them off. Here are just two stunning displays.

MOST PATRIOTIC WEDDING
Seriously, who doesn’t love a man in uniform? Give us several of them at a wedding where the bride and groom want to bring in the fun traditions that go with a military wedding (saber arch? cut the cake with the saber? yes please!) and we’re sold!

BEST ‘MAID “MIX-UP”

Mismatched bridesmaid dresses are still H-O-T and we love when brides think even more outside the box, not only mixing up shades, but also bringing in different but complementary hues. This bridal party was gorgeous and each ‘maid had a lovely gown perfectly suited to her own personality and style!

BEST TRANSFORMATION OF RECEPTION SPACE

Sometimes, we have clients who have booked a reception site that doesn’t exactly fulfill their design vision. That’s when we get to partner with amazing vendors to completely reinvent the space! Such was the case as we transformed this turn-of-the-century basement ballroom into a glamorous and romantic reception room.

BEST FAVORS/FAVOR TABLE

Favors are an easy and sweet way to thank your guests for joining you in celebration. Edible favors are always a favorite, and they’re especially fun when they tie into the season. We loved these hot cocoa favors, and the presentation of them was just beautiful!

Trend Alert: Whimsical Cocktail Clouds

02.21.14

With warmer weather finally heading our way and spring knocking on our door, we could not be more excited about the carefree feeling that this season can bring! Springtime heralds in all things new, fresh and fun! Spring weddings often lend themselves to more whimsical elements, and we adore this particular touch of whimsy suggested by Martha Stewart Weddings: “cloud” garnished cocktails!

Seriously, how precious are these beautiful cocktails adorned with fluffy goodness of sweet cotton candy?! These feature differently flavored varieties by Spin-Spun out of Chicago. The all-natural (as in fat-, gluten-, nut-free and no preservatives and artificial colors or flavors, etc.) confection is offered in luscious flavors such as coconut, peppermint, strawberry and cinnamon, to name a few.

But did you know Dallas has its very own gourmet cotton candy company too? Fluffpop offers organic and exotic flavors including cherry, guava, lychee and caramel in a few options, such as tiny pops to accent drinks, a live spin action station for your special event and mini-mason jars perfect for wedding favors! Check them out to see the full line of flavors and ordering options. Such fun treats will make your guests so happy, they’ll feel like they’re walking on clouds!
