Houston Wedding Celebration: Evanna & Jamal

December 9, 2015

It’s Wedding Wednesday!  Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of planning a beautiful Sunday afternoon wedding in Houston, Texas!  Evanna and Jamal were such a pleasure to work with!  After meeting them at a Dallas client’s wedding in 2014, I was super excited when they invited me to assist with planning their April 2015 at The Bell Tower on 34th.  Their BIG day was complete with a gorgeous, romantic ceremony followed by passed hors d’oeuvres and signature drinks during cocktail hour in the outdoor garden.  Evanna and Jamal’s reception was just as beautiful as it was fun!  There was stunning linen and decor, a 5 foot tall wedding cake, delicious food, and a New Orleans style 2nd line during the grand exit!  Here’s a peek at some of the photos courtesy of Akil Bennett Photography:
