Annie + Scott

Designer Wedding Weekend at South Congress Hotel
Everything’s bigger in Texas, and that certainly was true for Annie and Scott’s over-the-top wedding weekend extravaganza. The Dallasites tasked us with planning their destination, four-day party with prismatic florals, designer details, and dancers with disco balls for heads in Austin. Color was our main inspiration for every step of their wedding weekend. We kicked off on Wednesday with a perfectly purple welcome dinner at Geraldine’s inside Hotel Van Zandt. Thursday was the main event: Annie glided down a custom yellow aisle on her Versace platforms to meet Scott under their chuppah and a kaleidoscope of yellow, orange, purple and pink blooms. The rainbow continued into the reception, where the entire entourage danced the hora on top of a custom dance floor designed to match Annie’s designer floral Monique Lhuillier wedding dress. But the rager wasn’t over after the disco ball-head dancers went home. Their entourage partied twice as hard on Friday with two events at South Congress Hotel — a citrus-inspired pool party and equally as orangey Shabbat dinner at the hotel’s delish Café No Sé. The festivities wrapped up on Saturday with a yee-haw throwdown at San Jac Saloon, the after party of all after parties to celebrate the most extra wedding weekend in Austin history. Mazel tov!

THE VIBE

Extra, but in the best way. Lifesize cardboard cutouts of the happy couple and color-coordinated cocktails greeted guests at every event, which were all designed to the nines with over-the-top florals and personalized touches. But the real pièce de résistance? The custom dance floor made to match the bride’s Monique Lhuillier gown.

"We trusted Alex with every detail of our wedding and she exceeded our incredibly high expectations. Truly a legend. The details she thought of for our wedding blew our mind."

If you are looking for a wedding planner look no further. Alex and her team at XO Moreau are the coolest, nicest, most creative and BADASS wedding planning team on the market. Alex planned our wedding, along with 4 other events during our wedding week in Austin that required over one year of planning and a whole lot of pizzazz. From the first meeting, Alex completely understood our vision and plan for the wedding, maybe even better than we did. Alex was able to curate with an incredible selection of every detail, from the venue to the flowers and décor, a custom dance floor that matched the brides dress…I mean Alex even was able to pull off a raised, yellow aisle! I mean seriously who does that??? Alex communicated the entire planning process clearly from the beginning, created a very detailed schedule and wedding plan, and most importantly made sure that we stuck to our schedule and completed our homework on time! Alex’s organizational skills and tools removed incredible amounts of stress from our lives (her planning sessions and her website rock). Without her, our wedding would have never gotten planned. Every single vendor Alex recommended was incredible, not only their work but the people as well. Alex did an amazing job being our only point of contact during the planning process and handled all of the vendor relationships with ease. Literally every venue we looked at every single person knew Alex – and immediately ran up and hugged her. Alex has a positive relationship with every vendor, venue and person she has ever worked with and those relationships turned into an incredible wedding team. We trusted Alex with every detail of our wedding and she exceeded our incredibly high expectations. Truly a legend. The details she thought of for our wedding blew our mind. You would be crazy not to hire Alex and XO Moreau for your wedding, rehearsal dinner or any other event you want planned to perfection. So for all of you reading this in search of a wedding planner, look no further. Check that off your to-do list and let Alex guide you to the promised land!
