Fine Art in the Fort

Our team was super excited to plan and design a special fine art dinner to welcome Kate Holland, editor of Magnolia Rouge to Fort Worth. We scouted a very cool new venue spot on Race Street called The Post at River East. The venue was once home to Sylvania Station Post Office built in 1946. At some point in its history, the building burned and the walls have patina’d from age. They are simply beautiful and make such a cool California meets Texas vibe for any cool kids looking for something really unique.

Jennifer + Elijah wed at Three Three Three 1st Ave

Be still my heart! I fell in love with this sweet couple, fell in love with their wedding details and now have fallen head over heels with these images! A few of my favorite details in this navy, coral and gold palette were the market style centerpieces and cafe style canopy lighting over the dancefloor. The night shimmered and sparkled with fun!

Engaged~Jennifer + Elijah

We are totally in love with this couple who will wed in May at Three Three Three First Avenue. Their design has been so fun to develop and getting to know them even more joyful! The two day event will kick off with a Tanzanian party, followed the next day with an American ceremony. We just cannot wait to share the beauty of their special day! These beautiful photos by Nbarrett Photography.

Matt+Cammie’s fiesta themed wedding at Howell Family Farms

Not only was this wedding simply beautiful, Cammie + Matt were a joy to work with! Cammie contacted us to plan their wedding here in Dallas even though they both live in FL. I didn’t meet Cammie until months after we had starting planning. We had to really hone in on Cammie’s style and vision to pull off a fiesta themed, color packed wedding day with having such little time with her one on one! The day was full of details from the Mexican soda station that greeted the guests on arrival, a world globe for signing showing the couple’s love to travel, Mexican cookie favors, mini Tabasco bottles for place card holders, papel picado, sombreros, ahhhh I could go on and on. We adore their spirits and will miss them dearly. Congrats you crazy kids!!

On Cloud Nine with Bows and Arrows and nbarrett photography

on-cloud-9-wedding-055

When we pulled together to think up the Cloud 9 shoot, it was a must to incorporate all things heavenly. We wanted soft textured touches in the floral and details throughout to give a feel of floating on a cloud. From the hanging tabletop to the lush floral cloud above, this shoot encompasses all that is whimsy and romantic. Yes that is an actual cloud!! A dreamy, predominate white background was chosen while weaving gold and hues of pink all in an ombre’d effect. A dip dyed muslin runner was DIY’d and pooled on each side of the table, which coordinated so lovely with the cascading ribbons from above. Both tying beautifully into a matching ombre invitation suite. And you cannot fail to notice the wonderfully constructed floral head piece, bouquet and cotton boutonnières. Desserts were carefully chosen and display the soft touches and flavors of a croquembouche cake, mini waffles, staked crepe cake, meringue puffs, and mini cotton candy puffs. Our cute couple played and laughed while sipping from their “Love Floats”.
