Texas Wedding #2

The Friday after Jessica's wedding, I was back in the car on the way to Austin for another wedding!  My mom drove with me this time.  I decided just going down for the day might be best so I could maximize my time in Dallas with family and friends there.  And I was SO happy my mom was up for going down with me...we had so much fun together that day.

Mom and I arrived to Austin about lunchtime.  We ate lunch at Bess Bistro on Pecan (Sandra Bullock's restaurant).  I don't remember what we ate, but we did think it was pretty good.  The restaurant was a little bit dull atmosphere-wise.  Afterwards, we walked down the street to her smaller cafe type restaurant, Walton's Fancy & Staple.  We thought we might pick up something sweet there, but we decided we didn't want anything.  It was however SUPER cute...we definitely liked the vibe at this place more than at Bess.

We spent the next few hours browsing around S. Congress.  Popped in several stores and then got a cupcake to split at Hey Cupcake! and shaved ice...it was super hot that day and this was the perfect treat!

From there, mom took me to Kelly & Daniel's wedding (she went to the San Marcos outlets while I was at the wedding).  Their wedding was at a venue in Dripping Springs, just outside of Austin.  They have an outdoor area for the wedding and then an indoor reception spot.  Crazy thing is that once I got there I realized I had been there before!  My friend, Mindy, got married there in the early 2000's!  Kelly & Daniel's ceremony was so sweet and Kelly was a gorgeous bride!!  It was fun to see several members of my community group who came down for the wedding.  We had a great time at the reception!

Levi is in my community group and he sang
and played guitar at the wedding.  He was great!

Here comes the Bride!

 Their last name is Ting, hence the Ting soda party favors.
So cute!  I had mine the next day and it was also delish!

So pretty! Love the white bunting on the staircase.

I've never been to Bess or Walton Fancy & Staple but they're on my Austin list. I'm kind of surprised Bess has lasted as long as it has. I'm sure you know this, but Sandra Bullock also owns Walton Fancy & Staple.
