On March 14th, 2021, Natalie and Jared were the first couple to exchange I Dos in our Barn, setting the bar high for future Barn ceremonies.

Calling this wedding Pinterest-worthy doesn’t do it justice. From vows to send off, their wedding was stunning. Lush blooms on the left side of the Barn created an indoor garden ceremony. On the other side, a pergola with chiffon draping set apart the reception space and created an unforgettable experience for Natalie and Jared and their family and friends.

Lush, Blooming Barn Wedding Ceremony

Magnolia Bells had never seen a wedding ceremony like this before: Natalie and Jared were the first couple to exchange vows in our Barn.

An abundance of blooms and greenery made the ceremony space feel like an indoor garden. Our double wood doors became the natural canvas for their absolutely gorgeous wedding ceremony vision. A custom, intimate arrangement with our wood cross-back chairs ensured every guest had the best seat on this wedding day.

Greenery draped from the Barn’s chandeliers added to the impression of an indoor garden wedding ceremony. Pastel flower bundles and glowing candles led Natalie down the aisle to her best friend. Red, blush, champagne, and white flower pillars crafted by HEB Blooms - Magnolia romantically framed the couple as they said their I Dos in front of their loved ones.

We offer flexible floor plans for a variety of guest counts. See example floor plans on our Resources page.

Romantic, Candlelit Barn Wedding Reception

After a lush wedding ceremony, the elevated reception space was just a few steps away on the other side of our Barn.

Classic ivory and warm gold tones welcomed guests across the Barn after the ceremony. Our pergola with white chiffon draping set apart the reception space and elevated the dining experience. This elegant reception made our Texas wedding venue feel transported to Tuscany.

Natalie hand-selected some of her favorite pieces from our decor collection for her centerpiece, complete with candles and florals that allowed guests to easily converse across the table. Her selections from our decor collection included gold and silver votives, champagne chargers underneath glass beaded chargers, mixed metal vases, and floating candle vases.

Personalized acrylic menus made sure every guest found their place at the candlelit wedding table. Stacked champagne and glass beaded chargers created an elegant place setting for dinner from Churrascos Catering. Family and friends gathered around the table to enjoy dinner and celebrate the newlyweds.

This intimate setup doubled as the perfect backdrop for a bride and groom dance and toasts before DJU Entertainment encouraged everyone to the dance floor.

Natalie selected several of her reception decor pieces through our Decor Collection. Love what you see? View more on our Decor page.

Unique, Personalized Wedding Details

No detail was missed in creating this incredible wedding day.

Outside on our Barn’s covered front porch, a photo table let family and friends remember some of the defining moments of Natalie and Jared’s love story. A champagne toast wall greeted guests and set the fun tone for the wedding reception. Natalie and Jared chose a customized wood frame for their guest book, making it easy to later display their guests’ well wishes.

In the center of the Barn, Natalie and Jared’s white wedding cake from Kakes by Kathy was elevated by a wreath of blooms from HEB Blooms - Magnolia. A neon sign celebrating the newlyweds rested above the cake on our portable boxwood wall, providing a gardenesque backdrop for cake cutting.

Take home succulents to “let love grow” meant guests would remember this wedding day for a long time. We always love seeing what unique, memorable details each couple bring to their special day. Natalie and Jared’s personalized wedding day details added to the stunning perfection of their ceremony and reception.

Favorite Wedding Day Moment

From romantic wedding ceremony to intimate wedding details to magical send off, we had so many favorite moments from Natalie and Jared’s wedding.

We asked Natalie what she would choose as her favorite moment. She responded: “My favorite part of our wedding day was our last dance. We were surrounded by our closest friends and family. You could truly feel the love in the air. It was a moment I will never forget.”

Natalie and Jared’s wedding is unforgettable for its beauty as well as the special moments made possible by celebrating their love with family and friends.

We are so honored that they chose us for their special day, and we wish them many more happy anniversaries to come!
