When Kristen + Daemaine first started planning their wedding, they imagined having it abroad - in Barcelona, Spain, to be exact. However, after realizing that much of their family wouldn't be able to attend, they figured out something that worked even better: have a gorgeous wedding at home in Texas, then capture elopement style photographs during their honeymoon in Barcelona. Sounds pretty perfect, right? We thought so, too! We'll be sharing the incredible shots from Spain by their photographer, Jordan Voth, later today, so be sure to check back in!

The bride tells us Our wedding day truly felt like one giant family reunion. Daemaine + I both love the outdoors so we wanted to find a venue that had a style we both liked, and that was close to home. The place we got married holds a lot of memories for my family because it is where we always went camping together. Both of us are pretty laid-back, so we wanted the day to feel relaxed and everyone to enjoy the outdoors.

Let's proceed to the party + see their rustic chic wedding at The Retreat At Artesian Lakes in Texas!

Invitations are truly the best way to set the stage for your design scheme + color palette. The bride designed + printed these floral goods from Paper Source.

First look feels!

Kristen's darling hairpiece is by Twigs & Honey.

Who else is loving the groom's ensemble? It's from Zara!

STUNNING. The pops of burgundy in the florals by Maggie with Bramble & Bee are so good!

Can we talk about that Hayley Paige dress from Now & Forever Bridal Boutique for a moment? All the elegant beading + embroidery... Oh my!

Picking up the colors in the invitation suite, the bridesmaids wore dresses from WToo.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this cake by Chef Al with Masterful Cakes! The way the florals wrap in a ribbon-like manner across the front is so dreamy.

Congrats Kristen + Daemaine! Make sure to pop back in a few hours to see their gorgeous honeymoon/elopement-inspired images in Barcelona!
