An Airstream Wedding - Three Points Ranch

Matt & Jamie's Wedding :: Round Mountain, TX

This is one of my most favorite weddings. I loved all the details that we came up with from custom labels to the catering team wearing unique Anthropologie aprons. Karen, Jamie's mom has amazing taste and provided all the centerpiece vessels for a mismatched chic look.

Sally at Three Points wonderful to work with!


It was one of the rainiest days this past spring - everything was soaked! Karen drove the girls down to the ceremony site ... more like SLID the whole way there! (I got Three Points Ranch's golf cart stuck in the mud - oops!!) She shifted into 4-wheel drive, but not until they did a few donuts! She said it was the "funnest" ride ever and didn't care about the rain anymore. Gotta love a great attitude!


Stacey and the Petal Pushers never cease to amaze me with their incredible talent. This bouquet is by far, one of the coolest-chic-funkiest I've seen.


Diggin' the different style boots to go with all the girls' unique personalities.

Yup - that's a kale (cabbage) in that aisle piece. Too cute!Because the distance from reception to ceremony site were far apart, we enlisted '57 chevies to courier the guests to and from the sites. Complete with comfy hay bales in the back!



As a suprise for Jamie & family, I rented vintage umbrellas in preparation for a rainy day. I think it completed the vision we were after as well as adding a little fun to an otherwise unfortunate weather situation.

Lakeway Resort - Jennifer & Lewis

May 17, 2008 - Lakeway Resort

As some of you may know, we not only do coordinating, but we do event design, setup and production. Jennifer hired us to bring together her beach themed wedding at Lakeway Resort. From a real sand aisle to hanging beta fish - we put it all together. Jennifer happens to be a fabulous jewelry designer and currently has items for sale at the Lakeway gift shop.

Along with the excellent coordination by Claire of Soiree and the floral guidance of Petal Pushers, we came together as a team and really did some amazing stuff! Townsley Designs brought in a super cool water table. Love it! Oh, and Troy with Blueye Photo is a ROCK STAR!!!





Happy Belated Anniversary to Jackie & Jeff!
