This Camp Lucy wedding was an extra special one for me as it was my dear friend Ashley O’Bryan’s wedding day as she said “I Do” to Dan on the front lawn at Ian’s Chapel! We met a few years ago working a wedding at Ian’s Chapel since she’s also an incredible wedding coordinator and owner of Much Ado Austin! We instantly hit it off and have been dear friends ever since and I was just so overjoyed to be able to capture the day for her and celebrate! Being a wedding vendor and knowing Camp Lucy so well, Ashley chose a more intimate wedding for family and friends and had an outdoor/under the Pavllion reception and it was just perfect – one LOOOOONG family table, beautifully decorated by Whim Hospitality! Ash & Dan – We love you and I am so grateful to have been a part of your special day!!
This First Look at Camp Lucy’s Ian’s chapel area was everything! I was so excited to try out a different location for their first look moment and was soooo happy!
And because we wanted to be a bit silly and let Dan have his ‘star wars’ moment, I brought my son’s masks and Kim brought light sabers and we had a fun moment:
Ashley’s a wedding coordinator and owns Much Ado Austin and has probably run way too many weddings to count at Ian’s Chapel, so she opted for a ceremony location idea that was fresh and fun!
I loved that it was timed perfectly for the sun as it was setting behind the big oak tree..
Giovanni and Princess Gabriella got to be a part of the wedding!
We love you Ashley!!
So grateful my boys got to attend the wedding – Evan loves his Ashley! And just for funsies….
The reception was held under the beautiful Camp Lucy pavilion that was brought over from Vietnam, just like Ian’s Chapel. I loved Ashley’s idea of one long family table for everyone to gather under! Perfectly executed by Whim Hospitality for rental, florals and decor!
This cake by Glace Cakes was SO SO delicious and had a secret surprise on the back side…
Star Wars puppies! Walter, Gio and Gabby!
Ashley spotted the puppies!!
Congratulations Ashley & Dan! We’re so glad we could celebrate your love and commitment to one another – it was the perfect day! xoxo
