Beautiful Lakeway Resort Wedding

Planning Zoe’s big day with her mom, Teresa was just wonderful. They loved beautiful things and had great taste in how they wanted the style of the wedding.  They work in the beauty business and Teresa owns The Lash Lounge. So much attention to detail and the overall devotion to family was very evident. Thanks to JD Swiger for capturing the wedding details and happiness.

Bohemian Wedding at Texas Women’s Federation Mansion

Oh what a year we had creating the gorgeous wedding for Sara and Gavin. I love interfaith weddings so that both sides of the family can see the power of love when two hearts become one. I have worked with Rabbi Monty for years and have immense respect for the weddings he officiates. The Monsignor completed the officiating pair and although the rain wouldn’t stop outside for the ceremony, we had a perfect rain plan. I love so many of the details of this wedding that I am going to have a hard time not posting all the photos that I have. Thank you to Diana M. Lott for taking such beautiful photos.

Madeline Manor Styled Shoot

I have been working with Regina Peek, the owner of Madeline Manor for several months. She has a beautiful venue in Kyle and I saw so much wedding potential at my very first visit. Regina has a great personal style that is reflected in venue decorating taste. I knew that we had to create a styled shoot at her venue and showcase all the beautiful wedding locations and reception highlights Madeline Manor offers.  As an Austin wedding planner, I spend the majority of my time coordinating and designing real weddings, so when I started to put together my ideas for this styled shoot I wanted to feature different wedding gowns and décor styles. It was a wonderful day and it all came together to create a stunning day. An extra heartfelt thanks to Sherry Hammonds Photography for capturing all the details so perfectly!

None of this would have been created without the help and talent of the following vendors:

Madeline Manor

Bouquets of Austin

Whim Rentals (chairs, Sophia tables, place settings, and chair covers)

Our gorgeous model, Molly McCaskill

Michelle’s Patisserie

Marquee Rents (linens and pink goblets)

Pink Tulip Invitations

Alexia Gavela provided all the wedding gowns and jewelry

I have looked through these photos more times than I can count and really can’t decide if my future Austin couples will want their weddings at Madeline Manor to reflect a modern, stylish wedding or a romantic, garden event with a touch of whimsy.  There is so much potential at this venue and I can’t wait to share it with new couples.

Happy planning,

Barbara
