This styled shoot took place on the grounds of Gathering Oaks Retreat inside a beautifully decorated, white tent provided by Aquila & Priscilla Tentmakers. The tree-lined property provided the perfect backdrop for this country-inspired wedding reception.
Before I Do Event Planning created a soft, dreamy vibe with floating candles, succulents, and strategically-placed greenery. Delicate lavender cookies, an elegant white wedding cake and other treats provided by All Sugar'd Up reminded guests that "Love is Sweet." RSVP Rentals finished the look with silver linens, draped lavender fabric, and elegant touches like a simple, white birdcage. Ferns and blooming floral arrangements provided by Bloomingals also added to the overall vision, integrating the wedding colors and providing accents for fresh, summery pictures.
Lavender lighting, created by Wall of Sound Productions, highlighted the beauty of the venue and the bride, and created a glowing backdrop for the reception's dessert table. A sliver tray provided a sparkling canvas for the floral-inspired wedding invitations created by Scribbles.
Signature cocktails with lavender accents created by Nomad Spirits and small bites served in miniature glasses and spoons, from Rio Brazos Cuisine, provided the perfect snack for a warm, Texas evening. And soft, string music performed by The Salado Trio helped to create a relaxing, elegant atmosphere to watch the sun set over a canopy of oak trees.
GLO Beauty Bar highlighted the bride's natural beauty with her makeup look, pulling in the lavender wedding color on her lips. The bride's loose, side-swept up-do, created by the stylists at La Bella Salon, was glamorous and laid back at the same time. Her wedding gown, provided by Georgio's, gave us princess vibes, without being over the top. The sweetheart neckline and beaded bodice made it an eye-catching centerpiece of the shoot.
And when all was said and done, the bride and groom were whisked away in a white limo from Legacy Limousines of Waco. All of these images were artfully captured by Shelly Taylor Photography.
