Sometimes, it rains on your wedding day. And sometimes, it pours…all week leading up to your wedding, with the forecast for the wedding day being just the same. For Holly and Austin’s Texas wedding, the rain managed to hold out until the ceremony was underway, with the first boom of thunder reverberating right when she started walking down the aisle.
Needing a serious rain plan for what was intended to be an outdoor wedding, a tent was brought in. Bows & Arrows flowers still managed to create a beautiful, out-of-doors experience, however, with garden-inspired floral arrangements gracing tables and fresh vines draped from the light fixtures.
We love the decision to hold the ceremony outside of the church. Many old churches are much too small to fit your entire guest list, so choosing to use the church exterior as the backdrop to your vows is the perfect way to comfortably provide for your guests, at the same time as maintaining the presence of your church. Of course, the stone exterior of this authentic 15th-century French chapel also creates a romantic feel, and with the floral arch created by Bows & Arrows, along with that incredible aisle composed of white larkspur, you really can’t go wrong.
