{Haute Wedding} Laura + Andrew

When we met with Laura and her mother, we instantly knew this was a wedding we wanted to book. They were fun, hilarious, and excited about the details...which is basically our love language. 

They wanted a fun celebration that flowed effortlessly and utilized all the space the Orangerie had to offer. She wanted to embrace the natural beauty of the outdoor venue but she wanted to add in some modern touches of gorgeous gold. An excited and open minded client is a wedding designer's dream...we had a blast! These fabulous photos by Morgan Sasser Photography are only a snippet of how beautiful and fun the celebration was of this adorable couple! Enjoy!

{Haute Party} Baby Bonne Gender Reveal

Soon we will have another little hautie because...

Jennifer is having a baby! 

Ah! It's all just too exciting! Watching her and her sweet husband prepare for their upcoming blessing has been such a joy. That baby is already SO loved and it was beyond evident at their recent gender reveal party. Jennifer paid such attention to every detail! It was adorable and so much fun! Enjoy!

The entrance table featured one of our gorgeous sequin linens...love! She also went through all the old school predictions to assist guests with picking "Beau or Bow"!

The sweets table featured some of my favorite things...I'm talking tissue pom poms and chevron print, of course! Oh alright...and the sweets!

Oh Nothing Bundt Cakes...delicious!

Have you ever seen a cuter King Cake! ;)

Now, it was pretty chilly outside so it was the perfect day for a Hot Chocolate Bar!

A few other party details were more sweet signage, cute drinks, and loving friends!

But it was time to get this show on the road! 

The anticipation was killing everyone...is Baby Bonne a Boy or Girl????

So off we went outside to shoot the confetti cannon...and...

GIRL!!!!

Congratulations Jenn and Tyler! 

Olivia Grace will be here before we know it...and I can't wait to love on that sweet, beautiful little girl!! Y'all are going to be amazing parents with such a fun journey ahead!!!

XOXO- Rachel

{Haute Wedding} Brit + Greg

I'll be honest...when Brit called to inquire with us about our services and she mentioned she was having her wedding at a hunting lodge in Melville, LA...my mind ran with scary possibilities! I didn't immediately connect "hunting lodge" with beautiful back yard wedding...not to mention that I had never heard of Melville, LA! Well, I immediately regretted those doubting thoughts the moment we pulled up to Long River Lodge. The facilities and land are spectacular and every inch of the property basically screams to host a celebration! We got to work!

The challenge was to connect three areas that allowed for effortless and natural flow for the guests. Between fabulous vendors, the dedicated Lodge staff, and her amazing friends and family that wouldn't take "no, we don't need anything!" for an answer, it happened...and it happened beautifully! Enjoy just a sample of the amazing photos from Eye Wander Photography!
