Shoes

By Leave a Comment

Photo by: Allison Jeffers Photography We all know the best-looking shoes are not always the most comfortable. If you have attended a wedding recently you know how tough it can be to wear heels all night. There is going to be lots of dancing and standing. It can take a toll on your toes, especially if you’re not used to wearing heels or whatever designer shoes you may have chosen that compliments your outfit just right.  Some couples provide a basket of flip flops for guests to switch into but let’s be honest, do you really want to wear flip flops with your nice dress? Instead of throwing flats in a bucket, why not make it a decorative part of your wedding reception with a shoe ...

Photo by: Shy Laurel Forget the Miller Light and imports, everyone is loving craft beers. They can provide a variety of seasonal offerings to suit any beer drinker’s taste. It’s a great way to shop local and support your small businesses as well. Not to mention the fun of going on some tasting trips around the Hill Country.

Why not send them away at the end of the night with a one?

Winter Flowers

Photo by: Allison Jeffers Photography When you think of winter flowers, think of pinecones, spruce trees and greenery. You don't really want that tropical look or those vibrant spring colors in winter. Can you do it?

Many have connections around the world and can get whatever flower you want. They can get flowers not only in ...

Winter Wedding Wear Tips

By Leave a Comment

Photo by: Allison Jeffers Photography {For the guest} As glitzy and whimsical a winter wedding may sound, attempting to keep snug through the piercing cold doesn’t appear quite as glamorous. We’re here to help you master both style and comfort at your next frosty affair. Make a statement with extravagant gloves. Stiff, cold fingers are the worst. We love classic leather gloves with velvet or satin linings. Plus, when your hands are warm everything else feels warm. Invest in a dashing, structured coat. These are timeless, so splurging on an expensive one is justified! The right coat can be worn with anything and you will certainly get your wear out of it. Go all out with fur ...
