Justin + Isabel
A Southwest inspired, sun-drenched wedding in Marfa
With a deep admiration for the Southwest and the quaint city of Marfa as their inspiration, Justin and Isabel leaned into the gorgeous textures and landscapes that adorned their beautiful sun-drenched day. With the sun high in the sky and the most gorgeous desert sunset that was timed perfectly to their “I do,” this was a day to remember for these two and their favorite people.
It started with Isabel and her favorite gals getting ready at The Brite Building, a gorgeous walk-up loft-style space, and Justin and his favorite guys getting ready at Hotel Saint George; it was a beautiful clear morning with hardly a cloud in the sky - something that West Texas flaunts!
Outside in a cacti-filled courtyard, Justin and Isabel shared a first look. Blown away by his gorgeous bride, he held on tight to her after she gave him a spin to let him take it all in.
After the wedding party joined together for photographs, it was time to make the short journey to La Tierra for the ceremony. The sun was lowering over the open desert and the aisle framed with pampas grass welcomed Isabel to join her forever at the front.
Tears and applause were had before we gave the newlyweds a chance to soak in the cotton candy sunset and love on one another.
Together they joined their loved ones once again at Hotel Saint George and guests enjoyed cocktails and conversation beside the dusk-lit pool outside the reception space.
The evening was a frenzy of dances, enjoyment, and togetherness where Isabel changed into her reception look.
The reception cleared out for the two to share a final dance before sparklers lit the path for them to hop into the most fun red vintage car for their getaway, it was truly such a memorable and amazing day!
