The Gardens of Bammel Lane Open House


Happy Wednesday! Today's feature is our custom style and design board for The Gardens of Bammel Lane Fall Open House on October 4th. We always look forward to working with Alison from GOBL and assisting with this particular event. The venue is a charming garden surrounded by boutique cottages  in the middle of the Upper Kirby district. We'd like to say it's Houston's best kept secret but not for much longer. It's the perfect venue for clients looking for a garden theme or natural, botanical feel. The scenery does wonders for the style and decor all on it's own, and it complements various wedding styles.
 
For this years open house, we were inspired by the latest pastel trend but wanted to bring it into the fall season. Ivory, peach and sage green is our color palette with pops of pink. In addition to the pastel color palette, we are incorporating succulents into the floral arrangements by Something Special In Flowers, and Recollection Vintage Rentals is putting their Alice in Weddingland twist on it with their mix of eclectic and vintage furniture & trinkets. We don't want to give away too much without spoiling the event, but in the meantime feast your eyes on our inspiration board or check out the Gardens of Bammel Lane Pinterest board for more style goodness.
 
 
We'd love to hear what concepts you are looking forward to seeing the most! Share your thoughts with us on our Facebook page.
 
 
 
And don't forget to mark your calendar and join us for the Open House at Gardens of Bammel Lane on October 4th from 6 to 9 pm. Come out and have a few cocktails, delicious hor d'oeuvres from Acute Catering and City View Catering, and mingle with some of Houston's finest wedding professionals - what doesn't sound fun about that! RSVP today at aoase@bammel.com.
 
 
 
Until then be sure to check out all the vendors featured:

Real Weddings: Brae + Don

We're baaack :) And this time with an oldie but goodie! We're headed to The Club at Carlton Woods this afternoon for a vendor luncheon, and couldn't help but reflect back on this gem of a wedding from October 2010. Meet Brae and Don. They are the sweetest, loving, down-to-earth people we've had the honor of working with. This wedding had it all -beautiful venue, beautiful weather and of course, the beautiful bride.We had the pleasure of working with  Laura Kay Photography before she moved away to Tennessee, (and we miss her so!) Laura captured Brae's bridal beauty and this couple's one-of-a-kind love story magically. It was a fairytale come true! Enjoy some of our favorites, and Happy Early 2nd Anniversary to Brae and Don!

Farm Fresh Wedding Styled Shoot


Styled shoots are like playing dress up for weddings. So when Sarah McKenzie Photography and Recollection Vintage Rentals asked us to collaborate on this Farm Fresh Styled Shoot, how could a girl say no? With the three of our creative minds combined, we created a wedding style filled with fresh and organic details that made you feel right at home. Chicken + eggs were our main inspiration and we worked our way from there, incorporating it through invitations, decor, escort cards and more. From the darling family that lives on the Yonder Way Farm to the exceptional floral by Something Special in Flowers, and that dress -I could live in that dress by BHLDN, there is nothing I don't love about this styled shoot! Especially the team of vendors we got to work with -everyone involved was so talented in their craft and made this shoot such a work of art. To see our ideas being brought to life was more than words can express, but I have to say these photos surely do it justice.

And to top it off, the beauty below was featured on Style Me Pretty this morning! View the feature here, and the entire gallery here. Enjoy!
