Venue: Nasher Sculpture Center Wedding | Planner: Just4U Wedding Coordinating | Floral: Root + Bloom | Hair and Makeup: Brite Beauty | DJ: Dan Quinn Entertainment

The Nasher Sculpture Center wedding venue is home to one of the finest collections of sculptures worldwide. Dallas’s most artful wedding venue is an unforgettable setting for weddings! Imagine getting married among the works of Picasso, Serra, Rodin, and more. The thing I love about Nasher Sculpture Center Weddings is that you can dress up this space as much as you’d like, but it really doesn’t require much. With world class art at your disposal, the setting will be stunning regardless. Root and Bloom did, however, dress this space up with fall florals in the most stunning way. Rebecca’s wedding morning was characteristic of the type of overall wedding day she and Garrett had so thoughtfully planned — intimate and meaningful. Calm, quiet, and intentional moments just before heading to the venue were the perfect start to Rebecca’s wedding day. Then, she got ready with a couple of close friends and was joined by her parents later in the morning. After getting ready at the hotel, their Nasher Sculpture Center Wedding was just a short walk one block over.

Nasher Sculpture Center Wedding Ceremony

The outdoor ceremony space is one of the big draws for this Dallas wedding venue. The weeping willows and the light falling through the trees directly on the path leading to the sculpture makes it the ideal ceremony space. Behind the sculpture is a water feature that is so peaceful. Certainly, a Nasher wedding is the perfect spot for a centrally located venue that makes you forget you are right in the middle of downtown Dallas!

While most couples opt for the outdoor ceremony space if weather allows, the Nasher also has indoor options. This is a benefit to booking your wedding at the Nasher Sculpture Center. You can rest assured you will have a plan B if needed. When venue searching, you should be sure to love the venue’s rain plan just as much as you love the outdoor options. At the Nasher, the rain plan would mean getting married inside the museum – little to be disappointed about.

Rebecca and Garrett had a vision for their wedding. That vision was to enjoy every second possible with their guests. We planned for very minimal formal portrait time with the intention of making the candid moments on their wedding day all that more abundant! As much as I love taking photos of the bride and groom, my favorite photos are always going to be the candid moments no one could have ever planned. To me, that is the magic of photography. The formal portraits we took following the ceremony took probably all of fifteen minutes. Even then, there was very little direction and posing on my end while Rebecca and Garrett were just being present with each other in their newly wedded bliss.

The Reception

The first few moments of their wedding reception at dusk were just pure magic. It was just becoming dark enough that the fairy lights came on, and it began to cool off just a bit. This lighting magic combined with the bustling energy following the joyous joining of families was unexplainable!

Client Review

“Georgia was fabulous to work with! She understood our desire to have a limited amount of official photo time and just focus on enjoying the evening with our friends and family. She captured great candids throughout the night, from cocktails to the epic dance party. OBSESSED with the previews and can’t wait to see the rest of them! THANK YOU, GEORGIA!!!”
