Farren + Kevin’s Airlie Gardens celebration is everything a real Southern wedding should be: sweet, romantic and effortlessly elegant. The ultra-feminine flowers, styled by Salt Harbor Designs, are perfect for the couple’s outdoor garden party, and Emily + I actually may be more in love with their clean wooden tablescape now than we were last year. To participate in the evening’s lawn games (what’s more Southern than cornhold and croquet?), the bride swapped her dramatic cathedral-length veil for a flirty hairpiece from Lo Boheme.

We’re back with Part II of Kristin + Kincaid’s wedding at the Lone Star state’s Gage Hotel. Yep, still in love. After the “I dos,” guests grooved to the classic rock + soul tunes of Austin-based HOTWAX. (The bride boasts her new husband stole the show with his moves, and we don’t doubt it for a minute.) Rings are kind of my thing (surprise, surprise), and Anne Marie’s photo of the couple’s ring clipped to a clothesline just tickles me. First time seeing K + K’s vibrant wedding? Get your own copy of V3 for this and other real Southern weddings.
Michelle + King’s Southern celebration continued with a tented reception at the historic Clifton Inn. Barbara Lundgren of Barb Wired, LLC offered day-of coordination, and the talented team at the Inn designed an elegant three-tiered cake with fun purple flourishes. And what do y’all think of the sweet lavender bunting strung up inside the tent? We love! M + K ended the night in crowns fit for a bride and her King! For more, take a peek at Adam Barnes’ post from the day here.

Love this! So Adorable! The boat holding drinks was such a great idea!!!
Any idea where to get this boat? It is a MUST have!
Hi Christie! I’m pretty sure the boat is a rental from Farren’s wedding designer, Jennifer at Salt Harbor Designs. I’d get in touch with her to see about renting it for your big day!
Gorgeous! So simple and sweet yet great details. The simple floral arrangements were inspiring as I am going for a similar feel.
Wow, what a beautiful wedding, stunning! Gorgeous photography x
Gorgeous!
