Austin Wedding by La Dolce Vita Photography + Posey Events and Design
Yellow and Turquoise. If I could marry that combo I would. It’s just so fresh and joyful and quite possibly the best medley of wedding colors on the planet. And the proof is in the Texas pudding with this Austin Ranch wedding captured by La Dolce Vita Photography. The photographs alone are completely stunning but add to that succulent and feather infused florals by Posey Events and it’s enough to knock this wedding blogger out cold from sheer visual delight.

From the Bride…Most of the significant events involving Henson and me as a couple revolve around a lake! We met on Lake LBJ Memorial Day Weekend of 2008, and Henson proposed about three years later minutes before leaving to spend a weekend with friends at my family’s lake-house on Lake Travis. We knew instantly that we wanted to get married on or near the lake, so we chose Spicewood Vineyards, a gorgeous and laid back winery that my family has been visiting for years.
Many of our vendors are our friends, and we feel so blessed to know such creative and talented people! We wanted an intimate yet festive celebration that incorporated family heirlooms into the rustic central Texas setting. Bonni Taylor of Posey Events is one of my best friends and was a bridesmaid as well as our floral designer. Together she and I came up with the look and feel for the reception, but she left some elements to surprise. When I walked into the reception for the first time, I was blown away at how my Mom’s love bird painting was so perfectly displayed on the mantle behind a group of glimmering candles, and how well the burlap runners contrasted with the bright yellows and turquoises of the flowers and vases (thanks Madeleine!).
During the ceremony, we stood on top of a bright yellow quilt that belonged to my Great Great Grandmother on my Dad’s side. The chandelier belonged to Henson’s Mom’s parents, and after some scrubbing and re-wiring, it sparkled like new against the shade trees. Thanks to our wonderful family and friends, our wedding weekend was such a blast. The band kept us wanting more all night as most guests rarely left the dance floor, and the wine was flowing! It was quite the celebration, and I now get to spend the rest of my life with my wonderful husband, celebrating our love.

So pretty! The details are perfect, and I love the colors. Amazing job!
Such pretty colors! Would love to know any details on the belt, if possible. Does it come with the dress and what style/designer is it? Many thanks!
Love those bouquets! Thinkin' they'd look good for my navy bridesmaids next summer :)
Gorgeous wedding!!
Oh the florals are gorgeous!
Where did the bridesmaids get the flowers for their hair? I love them!
Hi from the bride! Thanks for the compliments! The belt is built in on the dress, and it is by Modern Trousseau. The flowers in the bridesmaids' hair were extras from the straps on the dresses- the designer included an extra for each girl in case of a malfunction, very sweet of her. So, some of the girls got creative and put them in their hair! I loved it.
Gorgeous wedding, so sweet and I love the details. The photographs are stunning!!
A vineyard wedding's bound to be spectacular just from the venue! What a handsome couple.
I am so happy to see this, just walked in the door from shooting a wedding in Mexico and this was totally the cherry on my day! Katie, you and Henson made this day, truly. It was such a pleasure to photograph the two of you and your lovely families. Thank you again for having us be a part of all the magic.
I love both the photography and the design on this wedding! It was captured beautifully by Alina...the images are romantic, full of fun, and lushly gorgeous. Beautifully done!
Love your clear/crystal necklace, where did you find it? I am looking for something similar!
Bonni, Alina, this wedding is GORGEOUS! Great job, gals...I'm totally gaa-gaa over the use of succulents. LOVE IT!
Flowers and photography are both just stunning. That color combo really does lift the spirits!
