Event {BHLDN Austin Afternoon}

So when BHLDN invites you to participate in a Sunday brunch event at their store to highlight their favorite Austin vendors, one says yes, right? Right!

We were so thrilled to be included in a group of some of the most wonderful vendors in town: The Byrd Collective, Liv by Design, Word of Mouth Catering, Tiny Pies, The Creative Parasol, Ashley Garmon Photographers, and Paige Newton Photography.

The event took place in late July and we styled several areas throughout the store with Liv by Design. The BHLDN staff were so kind and pretty much let us do as we pleased, a designer's dream. Seriously, I was a kid in a candy store and even created some impromptu hankie bunting. So fun. Thank you, BHLDN!

The main table was garden-to-table inspired with a bit of quintessential Austin eclectic charm, perfect for a brunch wedding. We also tried to give the other areas a backyard, sweet feel that is so vital to the Austin wedding scene.

Here's a little peek at the event through Insta pics. I will post a few profesh pics by Ashley Garmon and Paige Newton soon. Cheers!

...oh, yeah, and I got to wear this super cute BHLDN polka dot dress!

Planner {Kate + Drew - Engagement Shoot}

Today we're featuring some of my wonderful clients - Kate + Drew. In Tandem, a super talented husband-and-wife team based in Austin, snapped these amazing photos! The shoot took place along South Congress and the grounds of St. Edward's University. It was beyond freezing outside, but Kate, Drew, and In Tandem took it all in stride and were real troopers. I think the photos speak for themselves. 

Planning Kate and Drew's engagement shoot involved a lot of coordination plus a few small design projects! I collaborated with Posey Event and Floral Design on the gorgeous bouquet. I also hand painted the Mr and Mrs signs for the lovely couple - I think they turned out pretty precious. Brooke of Lyric Salon styled Kate's hair and Stacey at Be Belle did Kate's make-up - lovely work, guys!

{Hurray, Kate + Drew!}

Yes - I did hand paint these signs and I'm pretty proud of them, if you couldn't tell ;).
