A Sweet and Simple Texas Wedding


I'm in Seattle now, enjoying the cool weather, my favorite food spots, some wonderful company and basking in the glow of another amazing wedding weekend. The bride, Nora, wore a gorgeous flowy gown from J.Crew, a fishtail braid and an orchid in her hair. We referred to her as a Grecian goddess for much of the weekend. Isn't she a stunner? 

The bridesmaids also wore J.Crew, a sweet, little minty green dress with pockets. Bridesmaid bonus points! It was a beautiful ceremony and the reception was a fun, sweaty Texas dance party. The wedding cake was carrot cake and the groom's cake was ice cream cake. A stroke of genius. It was just perfect. Plus, we found an awesome Houston brunch spot called Down House.

  12. The wedding party looks delightful, all the more amazing given Houston heat and humidity which you graciously didn't mention. Where was the apres wedding picture taken? Looks casual and fun. Look forward to more summer updates!
