In light of the past two years, I’m sure we weren’t the only ones who waited on the edges of our seats to see what magic would come out of Texas for V7! Ryan Ray, Stefanie Miles, and Bows and Arrows teamed up once again to create this beautiful shoot for us, centered around the concept of meaningful moments and true Southern hospitality—two things that may be more cherished at a wedding than anywhere else. We were so overjoyed to have a real couple pose as our bride and groom, as well as the bride’s lovely mama! Given the family-centered nature of this shoot, there was no better way for authentic, sweet moments to happen—and Ryan captured every one beautifully!
The fashion in this shoot couldn’t be more stunning–I love how the lace in the bride’s dress plays off of the lattice in the garden.
As always, Alicia blew us away with her gorgeous florals. This arch is the perfect example of how her work interacts with the environment without distracting from it.
Photographs can be such precious heirlooms. We love the idea of gifting special people, like your parents, with a gorgeous, high quality album of some of your favorite pictures together–don’t forget to leave room for some wedding photos at the end!
There was audible shrieking in the office when we first saw the images of this table–stunning!!
This is one of my favorite details in the issue. I can only imagine how much guests would appreciate the time you put into making such thoughtful introductions!
Oh, how we love a chic getaway dress! This one from BHLDN would make a gorgeous rehearsal dinner option too.
Don’t miss the beautiful film that brings this inspiration to life, courtesy of Candlelight Films!

[…] Y’all, this editorial shared the idea of writing handwritten notes to every guest. We almost did this with our own wedding but were so pressed for time. And the monogram cake – swoon! View the original post here. […]
