Real Wedding: Avots-Murphy

On a beautiful Austin day this past June, Kristin Avots married Kip Murphy in the historical All Saints Episcopal Church on the University of Texas campus. The stunning old church holds a special place in this bride’s heart as it was the same one her parents married in more than 30 years ago!

Kristin, an attorney, and Kip, a physician completing his residency in Temple, Texas, committed their lives to one another in front of 240 of their closest friends and family, including their large wedding party of 24!

 The sweet green and yellow themed celebration continued at the Hilton Austin and included lots of details with a beautiful “M” monogram, a photo booth and a delectable candy bar in the fun theme colors. The bride’s father toasted the couple and spoke movingly about his parents, immigrants who had sacrificed everything for a better life in America.

The couple was sent off in a hail of white and yellow rose petals as they boarded a horse and carriage. We were honored to be part of this sentimental and fun celebration. Thank you Kristin and Kip for entrusting your special day to us! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!
