Jacky and Peter were such a special couple to us. The sweetness of this couple made them a true joy to work with. Jacky, Peter, and most of their guests lived in Houston, so while this was a destination wedding, it still included all the comforts of home. The wedding was designed to have a classic style with accents of white, green, and papaya with a subtle outdoor rustic feel. We emphasized the use of hydrangea and satin ribbons creating soft, bountiful floral arrangements scattered throughout the event.
Two days prior to the outdoor ceremony, to be held at the Hyatt Lost Pines‘ Riversong Lawn, a realization that there was a high chance of rain encouraged us to have a tent set up and to bring in 40 umbrellas for guests. Despite the pouring rain throughout the day, the wedding was perfect. The guests pulled up their hems…rolled up their trousers and had a blast running in the rain, making this day even more memorable.
The reception, hosted in the Baron’s Ballroom inside the Hyatt, was accentuated with the soft floral arrangements, in addition to the floral balls of large white garden roses which hung from the ceiling. Being a true Texas couple, Jacky and Peter chose to serve delicious comfort food including a “mini slider” station. Their reception also offered some fun aspects that were unique to the couple including a “make your own trail mix” bar with custom bags for their guests to take home treats and a photo booth with props that allowed the guests to dress up and create a custom photo book for the couple. For their guests, the Bride donated to her employer, the HOPE organization, by providing favors of handmade bracelets that were made by African artisans. Finally, as the couple made their exit, their guests sent them off with a trail of 300 sparklers.
