Christina & Dan {September Wedding at Carillon Beach}

This beautiful Texas couple shined the entire night!  No rain could’ve stopped this fun group from partying and having a blast all night long!  The wonderful Rae Leytham Photography captured the gorgeous, rich purples and golds throughout the wedding day.  Her bridal party kept everyone laughing!  The ceremony started in the Meeting House and their guests made their way outside to the Village Green for the reception.

It all started like a fairy tale...

All of the girls gathered in Far Far Away to get dressed and have some last-minute girl time!

mirror, mirror...

Christina Springfield {Events by Nouveau Flowers} certainly worked her magic again... The colors and bouquets were so gorgeous!

The bridesmaid dresses were such a gorgeous color! They were complimented by the fabulous bouquets! ((One of Nouveau's many talents!))

After Rev. Mike Young pronounces them, Dan takes his opportunity to kiss his beautiful bride!

Rae and Wesley Leytham snook Christina and Dan away for some sweet shots before the rain came...

A tented Village Green reception: Christina wanted Dan to have a real fish hook in his boutonniere to pay tribute to his love for fishing. The place cards hung from a vintage chandelier! The delicious fresh fruit by Townsend Catering, provided a refreshing snack station for their guests

Lanters hung romantically over-head as Christina and Dan shared their first dance.

Sunset pictures are very important to us at Carillon Weddings!  We made sure that Christina and Dan had plenty of "alone time" to enjoy THEIR sunset with Rae & Wesley Leytham.

Just beyond their reception on the Village Green, is our favorite fountain. This is such a great moment captured later in the evening...

The always-talented, Rhonda {Confections on the Coast}, amazed us with Christina's choice for a tops-turvy cake! The edible gold foil amazed us all! (especially the adorable flower girl!)

... A little girl time with taquila?

We adored the props that were throughout the reception party! As the night drew on, the guests really enjoyed them as they were dancing... it looks like Dan was really having fun with them.

The End. 🙂
