Wooded Elegance
A Central Texas Styled Shoot at The Levi Gin Social House
With a keen eye for elegance and a passion for creating unforgettable moments, Weddings by Shauna brings dreams to life in the most enchanting and personalized way. The marriage between the old-world gin and the modern wooden chapel at the Levi Gin Social House created a magical setting for our Wooded Elegance styled shoot. The palette of white and champagne popped against the metal structure of the gin and the greenery alongside Bullhide Creek. The bride’s ethereal dress from JoAnn’s Bridal, coupled with bouquets of white delphiniums, roses, hydrangeas, and terracotta carnations from Wolfe Florist, set the stage for a grand exit from the ceremony space. White chairs arranged in the chapel created a classic look that brought out the colors of the floral arrangements. A charming trailer, provided by Rockin’ Roll Mobile Bar, elegantly served a delightful array of drinks during cocktail hour.
Dramatic florals paired seamlessly with champagne-colored linens, provided by RSVP Rentals, and delicate, beautifully plated appetizers from Rio Brazos Cuisine. Outside the reception, the bride, groom, and the tulle-clad flower girl, showed off their jumping skills inside the coordinating white bounce house from Leap Bounce House Rentals. The inflated fun was made even more beautiful with a balloon arch from Waco Balloon Co. And the rustic, vintage vibe of the shoot was further enhanced by The Candid Camper photo booth.
This elegant, styled shoot was captured by Shelly Taylor Photography.
