Hailey, the lead planner and heart of Detailed Touch Events brought her stunning vision to Sacred Oaks in Camp Lucy, Dripping Springs, Texas. The design celebrated nature’s beauty intertwined with luxurious design. It was not just set against the serene backdrop of ancient oak trees, but it harmonized with it, creating a tranquil and captivating atmosphere. Every detail was carefully curated to blend the organic with lush, elegant details, enhancing the natural beauty of the surroundings.

sage and ivory wedding invitations

Your first impression starts with your wedding invitation suite. It gets your guests excited about what is to come and helps set the vibe for your big day. This team used the opportunity to incorporate their sage and ivory color palette and added custom details like the floral motif to evoke the garden vibes. This is also a perfect example of a thoughtful welcome basket. When your guests are arriving from out of town, it’s always a good idea to have something sweet, savory, and, of course, hydrating (bonus points if you source from local artisans).

The florals, designed by Emily Kaye Floral, were pivotal in bringing the vision to life. The bride’s bouquet, a classic arrangement of soft white blooms like roses and ranunculus, interspersed with lush greenery, echoed the shoot’s theme of organic elegance. The tablescapes featured botanical-patterned linens paired with delicate glassware and dinnerware, creating a sophisticated yet inviting ambiance that harmonized with the surroundings.
