MaryEllen + Louis | Ashton Depot

Thank goodness Louis is better at a second first impression.  After their first meeting, MaryEllen was convinced he was more interested in his banana pudding (he did have 2 cups) than he was in her.  As fate would have it, they were given another chance to connect while hanging out with mutual friends shortly after that first encounter.

Fast forward four years, and Louis was able to surprise MaryEllen on their anniversary at their favorite Italian restaurant Margie’s. He asked her to marry him while a photographer captured the whole thing.  MaryEllen was surprised again at the end of the night when Louis had planned an entire engagement party at Chimy’s that included all of their family and close friends.

MaryEllen has always had a love for St. Patrick’s Cathedral in downtown Fort Worth and when she found out the priest she grew up with was being transferred there, she knew it was destiny.  They picked at a date in October and decided on a palette of navy, pinks, and berry tones.

Bridesmaids wore gorgeous long dresses with a blue floral print from Dessy and the groom looked quite dashing in a navy suit. Maryellen flew to NY to bring home the perfect gown from none other than Kleinfelds. Her hair pulled halfway up with a floral accent, she was just stunning with her ‘something borrowed’ diamond necklace from her mother.

Gold chivari chairs, gold chargers, gold votives and a golden overlays set the tone for a sophisticated evening and perfectly matched the couple’s invitation suite from Sweet Magnolia Paper. Friends and family were unable to stay in their seats when the band started to play and couldn’t help but get seconds for dessert. Cakewalk Bakeshop was able to construct a 4-tiered masterpiece with gold leafing filled with pistachio, strawberry and basil buttercreams as well as raspberry ganache. In lieu of a traditional groom’s cake, Steel City Pops was able to do a variation of Louis’ favorite treat – vanilla pop with Snickers crumble.

The happy Mr. and Mrs. were sent off in a tunnel of sparklers and were able to take a quick break before having to be at the airport by 3:30AM!! Congratulations you two!

Grit + Gold opens fresh digs on Camp Bowie

After two years on the Northside, we decided it was time to expand and to relocate. We hooked up with an architect, Domeo Design Build  and Jensen Commercial to build out the vision. While the process was extensive, we couldn’t be happier with the final product. Excited for new beginnings, a beautiful new space for our clients and the community that comes with Camp Bowie!

Katie & David renew their “I Do’s”

Excited to share this beautiful renewal! Katie and David married 10 years ago. Everything was perfect! Lots of time went into the details and all were in place. The day went off without a hitch. Anyone would have said it was complete perfection. Well that was until weeks and months, even years later when the couple found themselves in a very ugly situation with their contracted photographer. You see he never produced their images. YEs! You heard me right! NEVER. A couple’s worst nightmare come true. Turns out the reputable and known photographer just lost it, burned dozens of couples and took off with their money and yes… images. Not a shred of memory was given to them. Nothing!

So fast forward 10 years. Katie, an industry friend and owner of Two Blue Shoes Photography came to us and wanted the best to pull off her renewal. Well, maybe I am a bit biased but we pulled together some of the most talented people in the biz to pull off this very special visit down memory lane. This time we’d make sure everything was captured for these two.

Thanks to an amazing team!! Nine Photography | R Love Floral | Posh Couture Rentals | Sugar Bee Sweets | Harts & Quills | Gold Dust Vintage Lip Service (Makeup) and Renn Traylor (Hair) | Splendor Films | The Orchard| and of course styling, planning and design my Grit + Gold
