Part Two: The Details

We’ve never done an entire blog series on a single wedding before, but there was simply no other way to do this day justice! Make sure to read parts One and Three as well, to see the full scope of this amazing day.

Not only was this sweet couple and family such a JOY to work with, but they also hosted an absolutely incredible party that was so much fun to document!

Wedding in Dallas

They worked with the lovely, talented team at Engaged Events to create the day of their dreams at Molly’s childhood home. No detail was overlooked, and the guest experience was unparalleled!

The Dress

“I added a body suit to the dress underneath. My mom’s dress was similar to the dress from The Parent Trap. I always wanted a dress similar, so I added a body suit to the Lela gown, and my wonderful seamstress added cuffs from the extra fabric from my gown to match my moms. Then we added the pearl buttons; these were original to my mom’s gown! I also added pearls to the top of my veil. Those were directly from my moms gown as well.”

Theme & Decor Inspiration

Molly took inspiration for the invitations and reception decor from her love of wallpaper and china soirée, coupled with her fondness for de Gournay designs. As far as color selection, she said, “Isaac and I love the color blue it’s our favorite color. We often show up wearing the same thing and it’s normally some sort of blue!”

The couple wanted their guests to feel like every detail was curated for them.

The goal was to “transport them to the most amazing garden dinner party they had ever been to!” This led to choosing “a longer dinner and a wine paring with our meal in order to cultivate conversation and intentional community between our guests.”

The Cake

Molly and Isaac decided on a “champagne cake with raspberry compote filling. I am an old soul at heart, so I loved the traditional-type piping and cake decoration. That is how we came up with the design for it!”
