There’s something so heartwarming about a bride or groom surprising their partner on their wedding day, and the surprise serenade in this One Eleven East wedding is one of the sweetest we’ve seen! Ellen and Nick’s wedding day was planned to be as minimalist and modern as possible so they and their guests could focus on the true purpose of the day. Rather than add too much decor, they brought in lots of fresh greenery and white flowers designed by The Heirloom Table and simple gold table accents, and nothing more. The rest of their vibe was created with raw emotion, overflowing joy, and the goal to be fully present in every moment, all of which Diana Ascarrunz Photography managed to capture so beautifully. From Nick’s surprise serenade outside Ellen’s getting-ready room to the reactions during the speeches and toasts, everything about this small-town Texas wedding was heartfelt and real. The Couple:

The Wedding:
One Eleven East, Hutto, Texas

Nick surprised me before the ceremony by singing me a song he had been practicing. It was a total surprise and Diana, our photographer, helped orchestrate the whole thing. She even had the bridal party stand on the stairs throughout the whole thing, which made for some amazing photos.
