Greenhouse Desert Inspired Styled Shoot

With lush, native plants, century-old Oaks, and natural open spaces just miles from the Austin city limits, The Greenhouse Driftwood is not your average venue. 

It's a special place in the heart of the Hill Country, nestled between Onion Creek and Jackson Creek in Driftwood, Texas, The Greenhouse provides an elegant, unique setting for events in the midst of nature.

With warm Spring vibes and details galore, this dream team of wedding pros made beautiful things happen and lucky for us, Twin Lens Weddings was there to capture all of the gorgeous details!

From the team, "Our palette was full of color as we envisioned this as an airy welcome to Spring. We paired gorgeous greens with warm pinks, yellows, and oranges, and little accents of lavender and red."

"Two bridal looks were created — one is the traditional bridal look which we envisioned for the ceremony..."

"...and the second is a less formal idea for reception/party time! We were inspired by Elizabeth Taylor's silk green wedding dress."

With an attention to conservation, sustainability is truly a way of life here at this venue!

For instance, can you believe that the property has been using rainwater collection for primary water use since the 1970’s?

And most of the power needs are met using rooftop solar panels!

I told you guys that this styled shoot was something special! And I just love the two gowns that were featured here! It just goes to show that you can totally switch it up and opt for a wardrobe change mid-party! Two separate styles —  both equally gorgeous!

So easy to see that so much heart went into bringing this inspiration to life! Amazing work from a group of incredibly talented Texas wedding pros. Hugs and high fives all around!
