From the moment they met at recess in second grade, to their hours of instant messaging, to their eventual crushing on each other in eighth grade, Kinsey and Cody were inseparable. After a sweet surprise proposal (with LOTS of red roses and love notes), the pair began planning their big, beautiful Texas wedding. “When I first started thinking about my wedding, I knew I wanted it to be glamorous and classic, with unique touches to match our personalities. We picked Hotel ZaZa for our reception because it complemented our theme perfectly,” says Kinsey. Following a ceremony at the same church where the bride’s parents had wed, their ultra-glam celebration came to life with the help of the pros at Plants N’ Petals, who filled the hotel’s ballroom with sparkling gold accents, crystals and dazzling pink flower arrangements. “It was so much fun to celebrate our marriage with friends, and it was so great to see everyone having such a good time,” adds the bride. Late night mini milkshakes, french fries and chicken-and-waffle bites kept their guests dancing ‘til the wee hours.
