Real Wedding Inspiration and Professional Planning Advice
Not only will you find heartwarming love stories but also useful advice for those of you still planning your perfect day! Below we highlight three unique celebrations that showcase different styles and venues.
Landry and Jonathan at the Montclair Wedding Venue
Landry and Jonathan’s wedding day at the Montclair Wedding Venue in Colleyville, Texas was a beautiful and unforgettable event. Despite the threatening storms that loomed overhead, the couple was determined to make their day special and memorable. To avoid getting caught in the storm, Landry and Jonathan made a last-minute decision to do a first look before the ceremony. The decision proved to be a wise one as they were able to capture some stunning photos on the beautiful Montclair Wedding Venue patio.
Landry looked stunning in her classic, fitted white gown, while Jonathan was dapper in his black tuxedo. These two were literal perfection. The Montclair Wedding Venue was the perfect backdrop for the couple’s wedding day. The beautiful ivy-lined patio provided a stunning setting for the first look and portraits, while the cute white chapel proved to be the perfect spot for a rainy wedding day. One of the most touching moments of the ceremony was when the whole room raised their hands and prayed over the couple and their marriage.
The reception was a lively affair, with the newlyweds and their guests dancing the night away to the sounds of Ethan from DJ Connection. The black and white decor was elegant and sophisticated, creating a stylish and memorable atmosphere. The wedding cake was a masterpiece, white tiers layered in white blooms that complemented the theme of the day. Guests enjoyed sipping on Night-Owl Coffee and smoking cuban cigars on the patio.
Aranka and Lewis: A Summer Burgundy Celebration
A lot of the time we see burgundy and other deep colors in the Fall season- so it was definitely a pleasant surprise to see it early over the Summer! We think you should always choose the colors you love and not focus on what is “in” for any particular season. The black, burgundy, and ivory color scheme worked so well together!
Elegant Attire: Aranka wore a beautiful ivory v-neck gown that was covered in gorgeous beading and floral embellishments. Her gown had a stunning illusion-back with floral appliques cascading down her back and flowing into the skirt. Lewis looked super slick in his ivory suit that had burgundy accents in the tie, kerchief, and vest. The overall look of this bridal party was super classy and elegant.
The ceremony looked amazing too! The arbor was draped in burgundy fabric with a stunning arrangement of white and burgundy flowers. The reception accentuated this classic color scheme with ivory fabric, burgundy table runners, and florals surrounding brilliant flickering candles.
Heidi and Reed at Beckendorff Farms
Reed and Heidi’s wedding at Beckendorff Farms Katy Texas wedding venue holds such a special place in my heart! The venue has an amazing team, and its very family oriented itself as the Beckendorffs family heritage began in the 1880’s!
It’s no secret that the outdoor ceremony space at Beckendorff Farms is absolutely stunning. It’s set against the Beckendorff pond making for the perfect backdrop for a romantic and beautiful outdoor ceremony! Heidi and Reed had the cutest little flower girl for their wedding, and you could just feel the excitement of everyone and the love for the couple.
The indoor reception space at Beckendorff Farms is just as stunning as the outdoor space. It has beautiful copper detailing throughout, French back wooden farm chairs, and gorgeous chandeliers! Kids on the dance floor make for THE BEST shots and add so much fun to the night!
