A LOVELY HOUSTON BRIDE
For Houston brides who are looking for a unique, classically inspired wedding gown, you should definitely swing by Lovely Bride, a wedding dress boutique offering some of the most gorgeous gowns from amazing designers that aren't like every other wedding dress you've seen. Lovely Bride has 17 locations nation wide. The wedding dress designers that the Houston location offers are Alexandra Grecco, Lovers Society, Louvienne, Rue De Seine, Theia Curve, Tara Lauren, Emmy Mae, Marchessa Notte, Dear Heart, Sarah Seven, Anna Campbell, Leanne Marshall, Kate McDonald, Carol Hannah, Theia, and Watters. With such an extensive arsenal of designers, styles, colors, textures, details, and fits, the modern bride with an elevated sense of fashion is sure to find a wedding dress here.
With such a beautiful plethora of dresses to choose from, Elizabeth Miller & I knew that the photos we were going to take would be stunning. Elizabeth is an insanely talented florist who runs The Petaler. The artistic styles that we offer as a separate photographic and floral business are very aesthetically similar, so we knew we needed to get together and photograph. We wanted movement, muted tones, and a fairly timeless look. That idea fit so well with the look that Leanne Marshall gowns have to offer, so that's the designer we went with (pictured above). Leanne Marshall's signature gowns are flowy and youthful, yet still elegant, graceful, and the perfect combination of classic and modern.
I am so grateful I got an opportunity to work with Elizabeth. Like I mentioned above, she's enormously talented and has such an eye & vast knowledge of flowers. I can honestly say that I can come to her with a vision for any photo shoot and trust her 100% to turn out some pure magic (and I hope she feels the same way about me)! If artistic, organic, and lush florals are high on your priority list for your wedding day, you have got to meet with The Petaler! Plus she has the most perfect old english sheepdog I've ever met and his name is Basil, which is such a plus of getting to hang out with her. I just want to snuggle him all the time!
If you're in the market for a wedding florist + photographer duo, Elizabeth and I will be at Lovely Bride in Houston on the weekend of May 26-27 offering a wedding collection that will save you $1500 on your wedding photography + florals! Please feel free to email me if you have any questions whatsoever. My email address is info@christinegosch.com. There will also be a engagement session + bouquet giveaway that anyone can enter, even if you're not booking the photography + florals wedding collection.
I hope to see you there!
