Melissa + Ben :: The Driskill Hotel

We're on Day 2 of our SMS Photography love week. This wedding was also at the Driskill Hotel and I just loved the deep red and ivory combos. It was so vintage and classic and the theme looked great inside the hotel. It also helped that Melissa is gorgeous! We couldn't have done it without the fabulous Caplan Miller girls and Simon Lee Bakery. Thanks ladies, its always a pleasure working with such great people.

Gorgeous ivory garden roses and hydrangea for the bridal bouquet and and a mixture of ivory garden roses, hydrangea and a pop of burgundy dahlias with a classic greenery accent. Love!

We used a custom aisle runner with a monochromatic damask pattern for that vintage feel, along with our signature candlescape with hydrangea accents and simple altar pieces in stone urns.

We had an array of different table arrangements that included the simple ivory colors with the burgundy and green accents with a chocolate leaf swirl to cover the stems and create a clean look. You'll also see that we created a way to use the bridesmaids bouquets as part of the centerpieces.

Lovely simple design by Simon Lee accented by fluffy white hydrangea. And they lived happily ever after... :)

Mary Jane + Mike :: Salt Lick Pavilion

We love weddings at the Salt Lick Pavillion and Thurman's Mansion. Not only is it super close to our studio and home, but we love how versatile the space is. You can go from Hill Country chic to classy elegance to fun with some gerbera daisies. Mary Jane's decor was fun, sassy and romantic. We loved the vintage-y feel that her bridal bouquet had.

Thank you to the super generous and talented Michael Hooks with Hooked on Photography for these lovely images. We can always count on him for some great detail shots!

Too cute!!!

We loved how the bridal bouquet really suited Mary Jane's dress for a soft look and the fun "pop" of color against the bridesmaids' dresses.

A simple centerpiece of hydrangea, hypericum berries and hanging amaranthus finished with a birch swirl and petals on the table.

This altar/arbor is always at the Pavilion and we love coming up with different ways to decorate it. We used fuschia/hot pink spray roses and green amaranthus for softness and romance.

Suzann + Ramon :: Kindred Oaks

Different shades of pink peonies with chocolate accents for the bridesmaids and a classic all white bouquet for the bride. So wonderfully classic and sassy at the same time! Thanks to the wonderful Nichols Photography for the images. Can't get enough of them!

We included white stock, stephanotis, hydrangea and other fluffy white flowers to create Suzann's full bouquet. She made such a beautiful bride! Thank you for letting us be a part of your day!

Love the shoe & bouquet shot!

Kim + Jared :: Star Hill Ranch

Here's a wedding that was some months back, and we've previously blogged about it.. but we had to put more pictures of it on our blog. We love the moss and natural touches. Thanks to Caplan Miller Events and SMS Photography & Diana M Lott Photography! They're all awesome ladies! This wedding was also on Style Me Pretty!

This is one of our favorite bouquets. From the white colors of raununculas, tulips, hydrangea and calla lilies to the accents of green amaranthus and succulents - this bouquet is so soft and natural.
Ahh... the pretty mango calla lilies for the bridesmaids bouquets with the addition of some apidstra leaves. Love!

We currently are in love with moss and succulents. We're on this natural kick! These are great aisle accents for those of you who want an alternative to the traditional chair accents.

Ranuncula boutonnieres are great to use and not too big and fluffy for the "manly" men.

Paper lanterns are awesome on the ceilings AND on walkways! This is a budget friendly way to direct your guests to designated areas and creating some color!
