Yes, being a wedding planner is fun!!! Especially when you are blessed to have a bride like Katie and her mom Bette. It was truly a blast from the first meeting. Both bride and mom had visions beyond of what they saw for Katie and Preston's May wedding day at Perkins Chapel-SMU and Arlington Hall at Lee Park.
We set out with a mission to complete our professional team to fulfill their dreams. Keeping in mind Preston's New Orleans influence- by surprising him with a Mardi Gras cake provided by Frosted Art.
Menu selected with care with the guidance of Food Glorious Food.
Katie presented her Dad after their special father/daughter dance with a photo of her in her gorgeous designer Carolina Herrera wedding gown - sitting on the mule, Jake. A long standing joke between Katie and her father-a tradition of the bride riding a mule down the streets of Telluride, Colorado on her wedding day.
I must say, it was an adventure itself locating a mule in Dallas, Texas, but we did! As I always tell my brides, I'm their researcher. What a fun that day was, with photographer Andrea Polito snapping photos of Katie climbing on the mule to capture the right photo for the surprise.
Arlington Hall was adorned with amazing flowers and candles provided by Fete Des Fleur's, accented by special lighting provided by Absolute Lighting to compete the over the top reception.
Ribbon wands held by the guest, with the band leading them out playing "When the Saints Go Marching In", sending Katie and Preston off in style for the beginning of "the rest of their life".
