Haley was a “Covid Bride” so we were originally scheduled for her Wedding ceremony at a church with the reception being held at The Junior League of Houston. When we had to postpone, the Church and Junior League did not have dates that lined up and she decided the Church was more of a priority to her than the reception venue so we found a new venue which was The Briar Club.

As we got closer to the wedding date, the capacity restrictions were still extremely limited at The Church and she would only be able to have her immediate family attend the ceremony. Because of that, she opted to move everything to The Briar Club and do a room flip in the Main Ballroom.

The capacities at The Briar Club were then reduced as well so we could no longer do the room flip and maintain the capacity restrictions so we finally landed on Plan D - which was to have the ceremony in the main ballroom with the guests seated at their dinner tables and seating for immediate family members on the dance floor so she would still have an “aisle” to walk down.

This family went through SO many changes during the Covid rescheduling process as we also planned her sister’s wedding during the same period of time experiencing all the same ups and downs. We shared lots of laughs and tears throughout the process but Haley (and Tyler) handled everything with grace.

Haley and Tyler started their wedding days apart from each other with their wedding party at Hotel Zaza in the heart of the city. Then Haley and her bridesmaids, followed by Tyler and his groomsmen, were transported to The Briar Club to enjoy the rest of their day. When Haley arrived, the first thing she did was share a first look with her dad! Haley and Tyler opted not to see each other before their ceremony because they wanted their first glimpses of each other to be when she started to walk down the aisle. 

When we were talking through details about Haley and Tyler’s wedding ceremony, we decided to introduce dashes of modern style that would pair with the timeless feel of the space where they would wed and celebrate later in the evening. A circular golden hoop featured bright pink flowers by F. Dellit Designs offset on the piece, and it offered just the right amount of color and whimsy. It was our favorite detail of the day, and it’s also the spot where Haley and her bridesmaids captured many of their photos!

Once they were officially announced as Mr. and Mrs., Haley and Tyler enjoyed dinner tucked away together. We always highly recommend that our couples use cocktail hour to enjoy their first meal together because this time ensures they’re able to take a quick break from their guests and enjoy each other’s company before the dancing begins.

Inside the ballroom, tall centerpieces by F. Dellit Designs filled with classic flowers, like dahlias, garden roses, and standard roses caught everyone’s eye throughout the night, thanks to their bright pink palette. Haley and Tyler’s wedding cake by Cakes by Gina also had their bright pink floral theme woven throughout, and their circular hoop served a new purpose as the backdrop for the DJ, Goldline Entertainment. 

On the dance floor, Haley and Tyler shared their first dance together. Then, each danced with his or her parent before the floor was opened for the rest of the night. Haley even jumped behind the DJ booth! After the last song played, Haley and Tyler had one last memorable wedding moment together when their guests tossed confetti before they jumped into a pedicab.

Thank you so much to Agape House Studio for capturing every moment of Haley and Tyler’s day! We have loved sharing the images from this sweet celebration with you.
