Traditional Rustic Grace Estate Wedding in Van Alstyne, TX

ISABELLE & DANIEL’S PERFECT FAIRY TALE WEDDING

Isabelle and Daniel tied the knot in the summer of 2019 at Rustic Grace Estate, a beautiful venue in Van Alstyne, TX.

Rustic Grace Estate has a breath-taking wedding chapel for the ceremony and then a rustic chic barn for the reception.

It was such a beautiful wedding, and its simplicity brought out Isabelle and Daniel’s appreciation for the little things in life.

They met through their church community, but it wasn’t until years later that their feelings finally kindled into romance!

The Morning of the Wedding!

 

Everyone arrived early that morning to set up and get ready! The centerpieces were comprised of greenery, which they had purchased from Sam’s, along with glass bottles that they had collected to to fill with eucalyptus and gorgeous pink roses.

Later that morning, all of the vendors began to arrive! Hannah with Jean Marie Sweets brought the delicious vegan cake and decorated it to perfection, while Ana with Beauty by Ana Faith and Sandra came to turn Isabelle into a beautiful bride.

All of the girls huddled into the bridal suite with their robes and enjoyed hanging out. Scrabble, anyone? 😉

Nothing Bundt Cakes arrived soon after with the five different flavors that Isabelle and Daniel had ordered (yum!), which Katelyn and Tim so graciously cut and put onto plates.

Modern Market brought the amazing assortment of food, and my goodness, it was amazing! Various meats, green beans, mashed potatoes, salad, rolls…It was an excellent wedding meal!

The Ceremony

 

The ceremony was absolutely beautiful…Daniel’s face was priceless when Isabelle walked in. Just look at his smile!

John officiated their simple but super sweet ceremony, and the arch behind them was decorated beautifully by Isabelle’s sister.

All of Daniel and Isabelle’s honored guests very much enjoyed the food, the cake, and the creative touch of board games!

Isabelle’s and Daniel’s guestbook was a record for the guests to sign, since they both loved music. How creative is that!

The guests had so much fun spending time with each other and celebrating the beautiful commitment that Isabelle and Daniel made to each other.
