Zareen + Brad | Shady Oaks CC

Zareen and Brad chose Shady Oaks Country Club for their beautiful summer wedding.  The bride dazzled in a fit and flare gown with a sweetheart neckline and wore her hair in an up-do of cascading curls with flower adornment. Brad looked sharp in a navy suit.

Surrounded by family and friends, the two had an incredibly sweet, outdoor ceremony that included Brad’s children – Natalie, Sydney, and Jacob. How cute is he in those suspenders?!

A palette of mauve, white and champagne and pops of coral was carried throughout the reception space. Tables were set with luxurious white linens, tall garden-style centerpieces and completed with gold chiavari chairs.  Loft22 was able to continue the theme of the night by creating a modern 5 tier cake with navy and gold accents and a floral topper from Oh Deery.

When I first met Julie and Chris, I knew they were genuine. We started planning their dream wedding, had settled into a private residence venue with history and charm. Both are in the real estate business so they can really appreciate a beautiful dwelling. All the details were starting to come together and after some soul searching the two decided they REALLY wanted to be married, like NOW. 🙂 Julie & Chris decided to go in a completely different direction so the elopement planning ensued!  Their dream location to wed, Iceland. With the help of Iris and Light, the two boarded a plane with destination set to Búðir church and hotel.

Sarah + Chris | DeGolyer House – Dallas Aboretum

Can a client’s style be your spirit animal?! If so, I think mine would definitely be Sarah. From the moment we met, I knew that our collected wedding vision was completely parallel. I truly enjoyed every minute of our time together and this design for their Dallas Arboretum wedding. It was just so natural and she was open to pushing each and every boundary.

The ceremony took place in the woman’s garden of the Dallas Arboretum where Bows & Arrows hand crafted an altar of birch wood logs, twisted chiffon and loose greenery. Bridesmaids wore stunning gold lace assembles which perfectly complimented the bride’s gown with lace neckline and cap sleeves. Sarah wanted the day and night to feel organic, soft and romantic so we went with bare rustic tables, lush vessel free florals that almost felt to be growing from the tables. We kept the design clean and not overly busy so that the Degolyer House really shined as the showcase. The night was all about family style dining, fun with friends and enjoying their precious commitment. We are so honored and humbled to have been a part of Sarah and Chris’ Dallas Arboretum wedding.

Cristina + Nick’s peachy gold wedding at Three Three Three

Oh my, can I just say how sweet this couple was to work with! Cristina was so laid back and gracious and Nick was so supportive and involved. I just simply adore them both! Congrats you lovebirds! You deserve a lifetime of happiness!

We pulled together a simple party design that was focused around a fun and flirty style with romantic gold details. Their ceremony was held at Saint Patricks Cathedral which provided plenty of ornate detail. Cristina’s gown from Bridal Boutique in Lewisville was a mermaid/trumpet style with a sweetheart neckline. She added a lace top with short sleeves that tucked into the belt. For the reception she took off the lace top, swung her long hair over to one side and rocked a completely different look! The reception held at Three Three Three First Avenue where guests were greeted with peach and gold details, fun assorted cakes, and lush floral touches!
