Intimate Fort Worth Wedding with a Reata Rooftop Reception

We all know planning a wedding is stressful- but try planning your nuptials in Cowtown when you live in Canada! Thankfully this couple chose the sweetest town in the South (okay, okay I might be biased..) Casey and Wojtek kept their wedding small & intimate- they married at the Cathedral Guadalupe and celebrated at Fort Worth’s favorite Reata Restaurant rooftop!

Casey has some wonderful vendors, y’all- after visiting only once she trusted them to pull everything together! Her dress is from Patsy’s Bridal in Dallas and her gorgeous flowers were designed by Bryna of Dr. Delphinium in Dallas. Her arrangements included white and blush garden roses, miniature roses and dahlias, blush snow berries, white hydrangeas, dusty miller and brunia berries. Swoon!

Farm-to-Table Colorado Reception

One of my goals for 2012 was to know exactly where my food comes from. This healthy attitude has been quite the improvement, and I am always looking for creative ways to dine out! A new trend- and hopefully one that is here to stay- is farm-to-table. These restaurants feature only local grown food and they have fabulous relationships with their farmers and growers. I love this Colorado wedding because they incorporated farm-to-table food into their reception. There’s no reason to skimp out on healthy eating just because you are at an event! Not to mention, this is one b-e-a-u-tiful wedding, photographed by Ashley Davis Photography and originally featured on Style Me Pretty.

Pastel Wedding Color Palette with DIY Features

This wedding on Style Me Pretty comes all the way from Australia, but I am just absolutely in love with this bride’s dress! It is full, but not poofy; glamorous, but not sparkly; dramatic, but not overwhelming. Of course we are in love with the mismatched bridesmaids dresses. That is definitely a trend that I forsee to stick around for a long time! A great element of this wedding is the DIY feel- I especially love those large letters {see below!} They are large and in charge. So fun! And you can definitely recreate them yourself.

Hill Country Wedding at Vista West Ranch in Dripping Springs

This is a wedding full of rustic chic goodies! This bride is decked out in glitz and put a cotton boutinerre on her groom, I think I found some more inspiration for Madi’s wedding! There is some amazing florals at this wedding, surrounded by lace, mason jars, and burlap! And don’t even miss that beautiful engagement ring. This gorgeous wedding comes from Style Me Pretty Texas, of course y’all! The ceremony and the reception were at the Vista West Ranch in Dripping Springs and came together after two completely different ideas- small and cozy for the bride, huge party for the groom! The beautiful photography comes from Half Orange Photography!
