A Classic Wedding in Houston | Mercedes & Christian
Christian and Mercedes wedding in Houston was beautiful! They had a classic wedding theme with a boho wedding color palette. Capturing this wedding made me think about how much smoother weddings tend to go when you hire a wedding planner for your wedding day. Thankfully Christian and Mercedes had the talented SB Moore and Co as their wedding planner, and it made their day run so smoothly! Wedding planners keep things organized, help in sticking to timelines, create beautiful weddings through design, and just help hold everything together in total. You can think of your wedding planner as being the glue to your day!





Getting Ready With The Bride
Mercedes spent the morning getting ready with her bridesmaids in the glass-ceilinged conservatory. This bridal suit allowed so much natural lighting to photograph Mercedes and her bridesmaids during the morning. Mercedes also had a heartwarming moment with her mother and mother in law when she gifted them special rings for them to wear. It was the sweetest moment to capture!












Cards With The Groom Before The Ceremony
Christian spent the first part of the day playing cards and enjoying a few drinks with his groomsmen before the ceremony started, and then we got a few shots of him in his suit and ready for the big ceremony in the Manor.









First Looks & Private Vows Before The Ceremony
Mercedes and Christian shared a sweet moment together and had a first look outside of the venue. You could truly tell how taken aback Christian was when he saw his bride to be. They also exchanged private vows to one another during this time, and Mercedes got a little teary eyed as Christian was reading his vows to her.





A Beautiful Ceremony From This Classic Wedding in Houston
This was such a beautiful wedding ceremony indoors at this venue. It had beautiful arched windows as the backdrop for them and beautiful chandeliers above head. Everyone who gathered for this special day with Mercedes and Christian were so happy to be present, and there was great energy and so much love in the air! And of course. Mercedes looked incredible in her wedding dress! SB Moore and Co kept everything running on time and smoothly, and everything was perfect for this couple.










Wedding Party Portraits From a Classic Wedding in Houston
And of course, we had to step outside to get some portraits of the entire wedding party. I loved how Christian and Mercedes kept their wedding colors classic, with a touch of boho with the color palette. It added the perfect pop of color into their wedding day while keeping it subtle. Their wedding party brought such great vibes for these portraits!





Bride & Groom Portraits From This Classic Wedding in Houston
After getting photos of the entire wedding party together with the bride and groom, we took some separately of Christian and Mercedes. I loved the beautiful water fountain on the lawn of the venues property. It made for the perfect backdrop for their portraits!










A Fun Reception From This Classic Wedding in Houston
Mercedes and Christian’s wedding décor was so stunning! The reception area was perfectly set up and the design was flawless. Mercedes had a fun outfit change from her wedding dress to a sleek white reception dress with sleeves. She definitely rocked the look and was STUNNING! These two certainly know how to party with their people, and danced the night away!
