Kristen + Paul wedding

Kristen and Paul were married this past Saturday at St. Paul's United Methodist Church with a reception following at the Petroleum Club of Houston. St. Paul's is very special to their family as both of their parents were married there, and coincidentally, it was during the same summer. Their story started when they met at Lanier Middle School, then they both went on to Bellaire High School (where they started dating) then on to Texas A&M University. Florals were provided by Wedding Flowers by LIsa and linens courtesy of The Linen House. Don't miss the detail of the groom's truck cake by Cakes by Gina. The happy couple will reside in Houston after they return from the Maui honeymoon.

Vintage Styled Wedding at Richmond's Safari Texas Ranch

Katie + Blake wedding

Katie and Blake were married on Good Friday at the Safari Texas Ranch and Laura was there to cover it. This one was such a fun one to cover as Blake and Katie are so energetic and creative. There were lots of personal touches that really made it special. Katie had her Kate Spade shoes dyed green (the same color as her Jeep!) and Blake and his groomsmen wore matching Converse All-Stars. The overall color scheme was orange and green and it really turned out great. The weather held out just right for the outdoor ceremony and the peacocks on the grounds provided much vocal entertainment. The reception was a hoot, from the entire bridal party's rendition of "Thriller" to the groomsmen later serenading the couple. AND her garter had a teeny tiny little pistol in it (not operational of course!). Congratulations you guys, I had a blast and thank you so much for letting me a part of your day!

Cicely + LonDee wedding

We covered Cicely and LonDee's wedding this past weekend. The ceremony was held at First Presbyterian Houston with the reception following at the Petroleum Club of Houston which has some of the best views of downtown as it is on the 43rd floor of the Exxon building. This was such a fun and lively wedding and was beautifully decorated with florals by Events in Bloom, linens and chair covers provided by The Linen House and an ice bar and specialty drink ice station from Ice Designs.

The couple met at Sky Bar, so they had one of the house bands play, which was quite significant to them. Melanie Covington's band was fantastic, and boy could the couple (and petty much all of their guests) dance! At one point the multi-talented bride got up on stage and played drums! 

The bride's wedding gown was designed by Vera Wang and she had gorgeous, pink Christian Louboutin shoes. The guests were treated to a steak and lobster dinner and in addition to wedding cake by Susie's Cakes, the guests were served a flaming dessert course. 

This was truly a first class wedding, with so many little details that made the whole thing come together perfectly.  Cecily and LonDee will reside in Houston after they return from their honeymoon in Aruba.

Katie + Stephen wedding

David covered the wedding of Katie and Stephen this past weekend. The ceremony was held at the amazingly beautiful St Pauls United Methodist Church followed by a reception at the Cohen House at Rice University. Even though the couple had gone to the same high school, they did not begin dating until law school while attending The University of Texas. The couple are so genuinely wonderful and certainly a pleasure to work with. Floral arrangements were provided by Floral Events and Katie chose to honor her late mother by featuring her favorite flower, irises, in the bouquets. Place cards for the reception were very unique and featured a mini passport that was stamped inside with a city that had a significant role in the couples lives. Each table was assigned one of these cities. DJ's Unlimited supplied the necessary music while the event was coordinated and emceed by Dewayne Ross. Linens provided by Linen House and the cake by More Than Cakes. Following a honeymoon in St Lucia, and graduation from law school this May, the couple plan to reside in Houston.
