From a rooftop engagement session full of skyline views to a wedding day that overflowed with color, energy, and style—Caylin and Ben know how to celebrate love in a big way. Their South Congress Hotel wedding was nothing short of unforgettable: modern, joyful, and effortlessly cool.

Set in the heart of downtown Austin, their venue perfectly reflected their vibe—trendy, fresh, and full of personality. Every detail, from the stunning blooms by Truth & Blooms to the glowing candlelit ambiance designed by CW Events, brought the couple’s wedding vision to life. And let’s not forget the dance floor magic thanks to Matchmaker Band, who kept the party going all night long!

Caylin looked stunning thanks to Adore Makeup Salon, and the colorful floral arrangements added the perfect punch of vibrancy to the space. The South Congress Hotel was the ultimate backdrop, blending sleek architecture with the charm of one of Austin’s most iconic neighborhoods. Guests enjoyed everything from luxe lounge setups and glowing reception lighting (thank you, ILIOS Productions!) to a sleek Mirmir photo booth for keepsake memories.

Having captured their Austin rooftop engagement just months earlier, it was such a joy to photograph the full-circle moment of their South Congress Hotel wedding. Caylin and Ben’s love is magnetic, and the energy they bring to every room is contagious. Their celebration was heartfelt, beautifully curated, and filled with the kind of joy you feel deep in your chest.
