This show stopping southern soiree by AJH Photography has won my heart. I just love a wedding with all the fixings, complete with the belly dancer Amara, a Bobalu Cigar Co. bar and all! On top of the all the fun, this wedding has true style and grace from the bold floral arrangements by Bouquets of Austin to the impressive light design by Illios Lighting. Talk about a double threat! You’ll want to head over to the full gallery on this one, trust me.
And Filming Austin did a beautiful job capturing the bride and groom’s happiness:

From AJH Photography… The Four Seasons is always an amazing place to host a wedding, but this was easily one of the most elegant and elaborate events that I have seen. Rhainna and Karim planned the entire wedding all the way from Nigeria with some expert help from an amazing wedding coordinator in Austin. Over the last year and a half or so, vintage-style weddings have ruled the Austin wedding scene. The class and sophistication of this celebration is not standard for Austin, but formal ballroom style weddings are coming back in a big way. The mix of Lebanese and Texas charm made this wedding one of a kind.
