New Orleans or Emory, Texas? This stunning styled Texas wedding filled with Southern charm elegantly encapsulates the essence of New Orleans. Jen Symes Photography captures all the beautiful details and moments that several Texas vendors made possible for this charming day.




Though the lavish Estate At Raintree Ranch is located in Emory, Texas, the 8,200 sq. ft. property exudes the classic French Orleans style found in Louisiana. This fabulously magical and chic wedding inspiration shoot will transport you to New Orleans and it’s vibrant culture including giant oak trees and a large estate home with a wrap-around porch.




Every detail of this shoot is dripping in historical beauty from the grandeur of the venue, and jewel toned florals by La Tee Da Flowers, to the bespoke invitation suite by Alexa Pulitzer. RSVP Events left no charming accent untouched. The styled ceremony, situated at the entrance of the Estate, featured a dramatic magnolia garland draped magnificently from the upper balcony for the couple’s nuptials.




For the ceremony, the bride modeled a gorgeous off the shoulder gown by Yani Persey paired with a show-stopping floral veil by Toni Federici. The ensemble wonderfully portrayed classic Southern style with a touch of charm. Then for the reception, the bride modeled a sassy two-piece by Galia Lahav which was perfectly suited for the festive reception.





After changing into their reception attire, the bride and groom danced their way into the courtyard in a traditional second line for a champagne tower and toast. The reception table was set with vibrant antique china, vintage Waterford crystal, and vintage silverware provided by Dixie Does Vintage.




This stunning styled Texas wedding filled with Southern charm is proof that it is all in the details! Every detail of this shoot contributed to the vision of bringing the New Orleans Southern charm to Emory, Texas.
