The Arlo Wedding of Francine and Eric is a joy to see! The Arlo is one of those Austin-area venues that feels effortlessly modern yet warm, and that’s why we love photographing weddings here. Its clean architecture, sprawling outdoor spaces, and soft neutral palette give couples a beautiful canvas to bring their vision to life. Whether it’s the lush lawn for ceremonies or the floor-to-ceiling windows that pour natural light into every corner, The Arlo always photographs with a sense of calm, elegance, and understated luxury.
Francine and Eric brought their “California Coastal Meets Midwest Vibes” vision to life through a palette of dusty blue, navy, crème, and copper white, creating a wedding day that felt fresh, elevated, and deeply personal.
The couple’s story is one of those once-in-a-lifetime coincidences. They met on Bumble in California, and by their fourth date discovered they were born in the same Kansas hospital, delivered by the same doctor, just a year apart. It’s the kind of connection that feels destined. Together, they love hiking, watching football, and finding joy in the simple shared rhythms of life.
Their outdoor ceremony at The Arlo was serene and timeless, set against manicured greenery, soft open skies, and the venue’s signature modern lines. The natural light, gentle breeze, and quiet elegance made it a perfect backdrop for their vows.
Their portraits around the property showcased The Arlo’s calm beauty: gardens, clean architectural angles, and peaceful pathways that always elevate every frame.
The celebration continued in the ballroom, where the large glass windows, polished floors, overhead lighting, and thoughtful table arrangements created a space that felt refined yet full of warmth. It was a night of pure fun, joy, and unforgettable energy.
Couples love The Arlo because it blends contemporary design with natural beauty, offering indoor and outdoor spaces that feel cohesive, bright, and romantic. Every part of the venue is intentionally crafted to enhance the atmosphere of a wedding day, making it both stunning and incredibly comfortable for guests.
