Gray hues throughout provide cohesive design.
Old garden gate painted to perfect patina by local artist. Historic McKinney is the perfect location for garden weddings. Large yards or small gardens can equally accommodate an outdoor celebration. It can be a labor of love for a homeowner and a bride & groom. Instead of investing in a commercial venue, many families are opting to revitalize their own yards for these special occasions.
This garden's extraordinary transformation went from average to over the moon. This project developed with many months of planning, patience, & being surrounded by friends and professionals. Oh and not to mention some serious nail biting!
Some yards can be DIY projects while others may require architects & contractors. We all know our limits in time & budgets. Planning ahead is everything. It can be something as easy as a can of paint & recovering furniture cushions, to building a fancy courtyard with fountains, lighting, fencing & big trees.
There are many resources (thank you Pinterest!) to help design the look you want. So plan early!
