Italian Elegance Meets Austin Charm

When Nicole and James chose The Garey House in Georgetown, Texas, for their spring 2025 wedding, they envisioned a day steeped in timeless elegance and soft, pastel florals inspired by the rolling hills of Tuscany. This Tuscany-inspired wedding in Austin perfectly blended old-world romance with editorial sophistication — a celebration where family heirlooms and heartfelt moments created an unforgettable experience.

An Editorial Vision with Family Heirlooms at the Heart

Nicole’s wedding was deeply personal, featuring treasured family heirlooms that added layers of meaning. The late grandfather’s wedding band, lovingly passed down, and his pen used to sign their marriage license became cherished symbols throughout the day. These intimate touches, paired with the soft hues of pastel florals by Heb Bloom, brought a gentle, timeless elegance that echoed the spirit of Tuscany — right here in Texas.
