City Glamour Met Country Charm at this Bougainvillea-Filled Wedding in Austin, Texas

Pink Perfection

Daniel and Brittany chose a custom-designed paper suite from Delighted Calligraphy. "We wanted to play with doing a more unique shape and landed on the half moon, which we also used in the leather menu cards as well," says the bride. "The invitations, of course, had bougainvillea on them."

New and Old

Brittany wore a modern Katherine Tash wedding dress in champagne-toned lightweight silk organza. "I always knew it was the one," she says. "The color is what really sold me, and the fact that it is more nontraditional. It was a perfect fit with our wedding!" She also wore a diamond tennis bracelet—a wedding gift from Daniel—and heirloom family jewels. "I wore my late great-grandmother's ring and added my late grandmother's Wedgwood broach to my bouquet—that was given to me by my father earlier in the week. It was my 'something old,' but was also just a special memory to add that day."

Prints Charming

Daniel's dark gray suit—a made-to-order piece from J. Meuser—included an understated brown windowpane print that coordinated with the sand-colored accents in the event's color palette (and with his brown tie). "He wore a Tag Heuer watch that all his groomsmen gifted him earlier that day," says Brittany. "It was a really sweet gift and meant a lot to him."

Ready to Wed

Before their first look, Brittany says, she felt "nervous, anxious, excited—truly all the emotions!" But after meeting Daniel at the hotel where their guests stayed, she felt relaxed and eager to walk down the aisle. "There is this sense of calm and relief after you see each other," says Brittany.

Pretty in Pink

Brittany's organically-shaped bouquet from Good Seed Floral included lush bougainvillea and sweet peas in fuchsia and blush. The bridesmaids' arrangements and men's boutonnières matched the bride's bouquet for a cohesive, colorful accent to the neutral dresses and suits.

Pink Glam

Makenzi Laine applied pink eyeshadow to Brittany's lids, working the day's color palette into the bride's makeup look.

Neutral Territory

Brittany requested shorter bridesmaids' gowns "in the brown color family;" her planner suggested custom caramel garments from Hexie. "She hunted those down and they were perfect!" says the bride.

Groomsmen in Gray

Daniel's groomsmen wore light gray suits from J. Crew and linen ties from Suit Supply.

Ring Master

The couple's two-year-old nephew aced his ring bearer duties in a pair of dusty pink shorts, a white button-down shirt, and suspenders. "He was able to stand up at the ceremony the entire time because there were lollypops hidden all over the ceremony site!" says Brittany. "It was the cutest. Everyone was laughing and it really made the moment so relaxed and fun!"

On Location

A geometric gold frame surrounded the couple at the altar, where vibrant fuchsia flowers formed an asymmetrical broken arch. "Bougainvillea was the star of the show for all floral elements in this design!" says Brittany. "The altar was adorned with hundreds of bougainvillea vines!"

Three's Company

An acoustic version of The Chicks' "Cowboy, Take Me Away" played as Brittany's father and brother escorted her down the aisle to begin the ceremony. Rose-colored chairs lined the aisle, leading toward a raised platform where the couple exchanged vows.

Saying "I Do"

The couple recited traditional vows, but worked with their officiant, Katrina Baecht of Spoken Heart Ceremonies, to personalize their ceremony. "Daniel and I are more secular, but also spiritual," says Brittany. "We really wanted our ceremony to be about us as a couple and our love—also a nod to our families and how lucky we are to have them with us on our wedding day and always."

A Moment to Remember

One of the bride's favorite memories came just after the ceremony, as they began their recessional to "September" by Earth, Wind, and Fire. "Daniel grabbed my hand and also helped grab my dress, and we walked down the aisle for the first time as husband and wife," says Brittany. "I will never forget that moment."

The New Mr. and Mrs.

At the cocktail hour, guests sipped ginger orange cocktails and prickly pear margaritas—a prelude to the meal from Royal Fig Catering, which included Texas ribeye, charro beans, élote style corn, and tortilla chips with salsa and guacamole—while the newlyweds snuck away for a few quiet moments together. "It goes by so fast!" says Brittany. "Try to stop and enjoy all the things, because you blink and it is over with!"

Bright and Beautiful

"The tablescape had more bougainvillea along with sweet peas for centerpieces, then lush brown velvet linens," says Brittany. "Leather menus were the perfect accent to tie everything together."

Sweet Stuff

A three-tier dessert from Royal Fig offered guests their choice of lavender-scented vanilla cake with lemon curd and lemon cream, or orange chocolate cake with orange cheesecake cream. The finish, says Brittany, included "spackled white buttercream with cute little cactuses and florals on it."

Their First Dance

After the meal, the couple and their guests moved the party into the property's main barn, where the modern glass chandeliers were draped with bougainvillea and greens. Brittany and Daniel chose Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight" for their first dance.

Cigar Station

Live Cigar Bar LLC rolled and served up cigars during the reception.

The Band

IDT Band, of East Coast Entertainment, kept the celebrants on the dance floor all night long.
