New Orleans Black-Tie Wedding

With sequins, and glitter, and sparkles — oh my! We had a blast heading down south with Bash, Please for a 400-person New Orleans black-tie wedding that was one of our highlights of the year! With a vendor team that included Tec Petaja for photos, Joel Serrato for video, and an amazing 80s cover band, it was bound to be a party! [and it was!] The neutral palette of whites and greens throughout the florals complimented the neutral and glittery palette of blush pink, nude, gold that danced among all the candlelight.

It’s hard to go wrong with that kind of concept, and bridesmaids in mixed, but matching, gold sequin dresses? We’re big fans.

We headed back to Austin a mere 5 hours after breakdown ended at 4am that night, and I only wish we had more time to explore. NOLA—I’m putting it out there: we’d love to come back!

Honestly, there is little better than designing to the historically marvelous and detailed interiors at The Perry Belmont House in DC, and our late fall dinner party-turned-boudoir-inspired revelry did not disappoint. As big art patrons and collectors, J&S came to us looking for guidance on where their wedding celebration ought to take place. Considering spots […]

When we received word that the mother of the groom was set on using The Adolphus Hotel in Dallas as the scene for the welcome dinner for guests of C & C’s late January wedding, we were beyond excited. We’ve been huge fans of the elegant, light-filled 19th Floor Ballroom (also known as The Governor’s […]
