Wedding
Written By Sheyanne Petrovich

Today’s wedding is a slight departure from my usual wedding coverage. The luxurious atmosphere, the attention to detail, and intentional celebration of love are all very much still here, only this time in the wonderful setting of Galveston, Texas. Join me as I relive this elegant destination wedding at the exceptional Hotel Galvez near Houston, Texas.

The Refined Elegance of Hotel Galvez

Since 1911 Hotel Galvez has stood as one of the most elegant, distinct, and beautiful hotels in the greater Houston area, and an iconic piece of Galveston Island. The historic hotel, affectionately referred to as the “Queen of the Gulf”, also makes for one of the most wonderful wedding venues in the area. The lavish ballroom, stunning beachfront access, lush lawns, as well as exquisite interior décor all set the scene for a wholly unforgettable wedding. Complementing this outstanding elegance is the venue’s service which is simply next level. Phenomenal in-house catering and the assistance of their special events team make Hotel Galvez the clear choice for couples looking for a refined wedding venue in the Houston area!

A Lavish Destination Wedding Near Houston, Texas

My experience at Hotel Galvez was through Caitlyn and Casey’s spectacular wedding day here this past April. The venue is immediately breathtaking, and was the perfect choice for Caitlyn and Casey’s festivities. It felt like there was beauty to be explored and experienced around every corner, be it the checkerboard tile halls, the stunning red velvet staircase, or the elegant chandelier lit ballroom, Hotel Galvez left nothing to be desired when it came to its aesthetic. This feeling seemed to be mutual for Caitlyn and Casey as well, as the two had THE best time together throughout the day!

A Genuine Celebration of Two Incredible People

Caitlyn and Casey were a couple I got to photograph a few years prior in Maui, so their wedding was a bit of a full circle moment for me. These two are such genuine, wonderful people, and their wedding is certainly a pure reflection of that. The connection they share, and the bonds they’ve made with their favorite people, all came together as the centerpiece of this one-of-a-kind wedding day. From getting ready photos, to closing out the dancefloor together, these two crafted a wedding day of pure joy and celebration from start to finish that I’m especially honored to have been a part of.

Congratulations to Caitlyn and Casey on creating such a phenomenal wedding day experience at Hotel Galvez.
