Mattie and Tony’s wedding at Ashton Gardens in Spring, Texas was a beautiful and emotional day filled with intentional moments and timeless details. As an Austin wedding photographer, I love traveling across Texas to photograph weddings at stunning venues — especially venues like Ashton Gardens that are part of Walter Wedding Estates, which also has several beautiful venues in the Austin area.

For couples planning an Austin or Texas Hill Country wedding, Walter Wedding Estates venues offer elegant chapel spaces, beautiful architecture, and natural light that photographs beautifully in every season.

Mattie and Tony’s February 19th wedding was filled with meaningful moments and a classic romantic style that made the day feel both personal and timeless.


Ashton Gardens Wedding Venue

Ashton Gardens is known for its stunning chapel and elegant reception spaces. The neutral tones and beautiful stone architecture create a timeless setting for wedding photography.

Mattie and Tony chose an indoor chapel ceremony, which created a classic and intimate atmosphere for their vows. The chapel provides soft natural light and a clean, elegant backdrop that keeps the focus on the couple.

Because Ashton Gardens is part of Walter Wedding Estates, couples planning weddings in Austin, Dripping Springs, or the Texas Hill Country will find similar venues with the same elevated and romantic style.


Classic Wedding Colors and Style

Mattie and Tony chose a romantic and timeless color palette featuring:

  • Deep red tones
  • Champagne neutrals
  • Black formalwear
  • White florals

The combination created a classic wedding look that photographed beautifully against the light stone architecture of Ashton Gardens.

The bridesmaids’ deep red dresses and white calla lilies gave the day an elegant and cohesive feel while keeping the overall style timeless.


Meaningful Wedding Day Moments

Mattie and Tony built intentional moments into their wedding day that made it especially meaningful.

Before the ceremony, they shared private vows together, creating a quiet moment before the celebration began.

Mattie also did a first look with her dad and bridesmaids, which created some of the most emotional and genuine reactions of the day.

These personal moments often become couples’ favorite memories and help tell the full story of the wedding day.


Austin Wedding Photographer Traveling Across Texas

Although Mattie and Tony’s wedding took place near Houston, I traveled from Austin to photograph their wedding, which is something I regularly do for couples across Texas.

I photograph weddings throughout:

  • Austin
  • North Austin
  • Lake Travis
  • Dripping Springs
  • Cedar Park
  • Texas Hill Country
  • New Braunfels
  • San Marcos
  • Canyon Lake
  • Dallas-Fort Worth
  • Houston

Travel outside the Austin area is always available, and travel fees may apply depending on distance.

Many couples choose an Austin wedding photographer even if their venue is elsewhere in Texas because they connect with a photographer’s style and experience.
