Craving a wedding that's equal parts polished and playful? Look no further than Shiraz Garden, nestled amidst the rolling hills and vibrant sunsets of the Texas Hill Country. This gem offers a symphony of experiences for couples seeking a truly unique celebration like Molly and Matthew!

Enjoy this pretty day from start to finish with all the summer vibes of the last weekend in September!

OUTDOOR CATHEDRAL CEREMONY

Under the cool shade of the Outdoor Cathedral, this thoughtfully designed space is a haven from the summer sun, embracing guests with comfort while offering a glimpse of the verdant landscape beyond. Here, the couple stood in the natural light, their vows exchanged without squinted eyes and only full hearts! Photographers rejoiced in the even illumination, capturing every tear, smile, and unspoken promise with clarity and beauty.

And when vows transform into cheers, the transition to celebration is a mere step away, leaving guests refreshed and ready to raise a toast to the happy couple beneath the warm Texas sky.

SOPHISTICATED BRIDE STYLE

The Bride’s veil, stole the show..well no it was her sleek gown and perfect glam! Oh wait, it was all so pretty! Woven with delicate pearls like dewdrops clinging to a spider's web, it shimmered with every step. Bride-to-be, take note! While the allure of a full-blown bridal arsenal – cascading tiaras, sparkling necklaces, and enough bracelets to jingle a caravan – is undeniable, sometimes, less is truly more.

For photographers, a single statement piece acts like a magnet for the lens, creating captivating focal points amidst the whirlwind of the day. Imagine a sleek, minimalist gown transformed by a veil woven with shimmering pearls, each one catching the light and whispering secrets in every photograph. Or picture a playful touch like blue heels peeking out from under a classic white dress, adding a pop of color to the gallery. Remember, a single statement doesn't need to shout. Trust the power of one, and let your bridal ensemble tell a story of effortless elegance, punctuated by a playful wink at the camera. Your future self, flipping through a gallery brimming with personality and joy, will thank you for it.

RIVER PHOTOS FROM WEDDING DAY

For couples seeking to weave the vibrant Colorado River into their wedding memories, Shiraz Garden offers unmatched access and opportunity. Plus, the unique River Amphitheatre carved into the side of the river provides a dramatic setting for unforgettable portraits or even an intimate ceremony. This space is seasonal of course, as the river goes up and down and sweeps away the amphitheater under the river from time to time.

OUTDOOR AUSTIN WEDDING RECEPTION VENUE - FORAML GARDEN AT SHIRAZ

Shiraz Garden's charm isn't just skin-deep. Water, a symbol of life and renewal, weaves its way throughout the property. Cascading fountains serenade you with their gentle gurgling, creating a sense of tranquility that washes over you when you step onto the grounds. The pièce de résistance? A stunning central fountain is nestled in the heart of the reception area. Its sparkling waters become a captivating anchor and gather place during recpetion, adding a touch of magic to every toast and twirl.

And for those seeking a secret escape, hidden amidst the greenery lies a treasure trove for photographers – a cascading waterfall, fun marble status, and lots of hidden and fun details unlike any other venue (the owner is an avid art collector).
