A Modern Green Fairytale Wedding at The Luminaire Houston
wedding planning
Planned, Designed & Executed by Ashley’s Visions & Productions (AVP)
This year, our team at Ashley’s Visions & Productions had the privilege of designing Christian & Megan’s The Luminaire wedding in Houston — a romantic, modern, and whimsical green fairytale brought to life among lush woods and contemporary architecture. Their wedding became one of our most creatively fulfilling celebrations to date, not only because of its design potential, but because of how deeply this couple trusted our vision.
Christian & Megan are two of the sweetest, most easygoing clients we’ve ever served. Planning with them felt effortless, collaborative, and joy-filled. They knew the experience they wanted and allowed our team to fully guide their design direction. That trust resulted in a celebration that was imaginative, nature-forward, and beautifully personal.
A Wedding Rooted in Trust, Ease & Personal Meaning
From the start, Christian and Megan had a clear sense of the atmosphere they wanted to create.
Christian prioritized:
- A private venue
- Wooded surroundings
- Beautiful greenery
- A modern space that didn’t feel like a rustic barn
Megan envisioned:
- A clean, modern aesthetic
- A whimsical, enchanted mood
- A soft romantic feel
- Subtle nods to her love for Taylor Swift
The Luminaire offered the perfect balance for both of them: a venue that is modern and editorial, yet grounded in serene natural beauty.
THE VENUE: THE LUMINAIRE
Modern Architecture Meets Natural Serenity.
Nestled in North Houston, The Luminaire is known for its sleek lines, airy interiors, and expansive windows overlooking mature trees. It is one of the most versatile venues in the area for couples seeking a clean, modern space that still feels connected to nature.
Why It Was Perfect for Their Vision:
- Contemporary architecture
- Massive windows framing the forest and lake
- A neutral palette ideal for whimsical design
- Privacy and peaceful surroundings
- A refined environment without rustic elements

THE DESIGN: A WHIMSICAL GREEN FAIRYTALE BROUGHT TO LIFE
AVP crafted an immersive environment rooted in layered greens, organic textures, and a modern fairytale feeling. Every design decision reflected intention, artistry, and a deep connection to the couple.
Whimsical Forest-Fairy Florals
Amor Del Bueno Flowers created an organic floral story filled with movement, texture, and airy greenery. It felt alive and enchanted, echoing the wooded surroundings of The Luminaire.
Luxe Green Chromatic Linens & Rentals
From emerald to moss to deep forest tones, the monochromatic palette added richness and depth. What’s The Occasion and other rental partners helped bring in elevated linens, glassware, and tablescape textures.
A Custom Seating Chart
A sculptural, modern seating installation grounded the reception and added a bold design element.
Luxury Furniture & Lounge Pieces
Curated lounge groupings from Love Birds Vintage and Craft the Moment offered stylish, comfortable spaces for guests to gather.
Full Dessert Display
Because the couple isn’t fond of traditional cake, Buttercream Houston created a curated dessert spread that doubled as a stunning visual moment.
Editorial Bridesmaid Palette
The bridesmaids wore coordinated evergreen dresses—unique yet cohesive, and perfectly in sync with the wedding aesthetic.
Taylor Swift-Inspired Touches
From ceremony music selections to soft lyrical references woven through design moments, Megan’s love for Taylor Swift added emotional resonance throughout the day.
Custom Stationery Suite
Jo’s Paper Kitchen designed a bespoke illustration of The Luminaire for the invitation suite—tying the design directly to the venue.
A One-of-a-Kind Ceremony Installation
Our team created one of the most unique ceremony structures we’ve ever built. It looked as though it had naturally grown from the venue floor—organic, sculptural, and magical.
A Stylish Second Look
Megan’s outfit change added excitement and modern flair as the celebration transitioned into the evening.
Each design layer contributed to a cohesive, immersive, and deeply personal experience.
