lauren&leo {wedding} laura rathe art gallery

When Lauren & I sat down to talk about her wedding to Leo, something immediately clicked & two hours passed in the blink of an eye. I wouldn't be surprised if this is something that happens often–Lauren is one of those people that you are instant friends with. No doubt Leo noticed this when they first met.

I got so excited when I found out their wedding was to be held in the Laura Rathe Art Gallery. I knew it would be a fun & unique backdrop for a wedding, & it didn't disappoint! But first, we stopped for bridal party photos in a public garden space in Downtown Houston.

The Magnolia Hotel provided some glorious natural lighting for some indoor photos. It also helps that Lauren is both beautiful & graceful.

So beautiful!!

Lauren & Leo opted for a First Look. Leo's expression when he turned around is absolutely priceless!

The ceremony happened on the rooftop of the Laura Rathe Gallery in Houston & the rest of the festivities taking place throughout the rest of the gallery. Such a fun & beautiful venue with a great view!
