Historic Charm Meets Modern Romance


Set against the backdrop of The Historic Dallas Jail, this Valentine’s Day-inspired wedding editorial was a masterclass in moody romance and rich elegance. A dramatic cherry red color palette infused every detail, from lush floral arrangements to velvet textures, creating an atmosphere that was both passionate and timeless.


Designed by Deo Gratias Wedding Co., the shoot featured an exquisite blend of red florals and hydrangeas by Vintage Rose Floral Designs, enhanced by the soft glow of candlelight. The velvet backdrop provided a luxurious contrast to the venue’s historic charm, while delicate stationery from Westgate Creative Co. added a refined touch. Every element, from the bride’s intricate mantilla veil by The Liturgical Co. and The Catholic Wedding Co. to the stunning cake by Enjoy Neelias, contributed to a cohesive and breathtaking vision.


Live music by Corda Entertainment filled the space, setting an enchanting mood as Makena and Austin, the stunning bride and groom, embraced the moment. A live painter, Abby’s Heartwork Weddings, captured the essence of the day in real time, creating a keepsake as unique as the setting itself.


This editorial is a bold take on classic romance. The combination of historic architecture, modern wedding elements, and a moody aesthetic proves that love stories can be just as dramatic and daring as they are beautiful.
