Skyler and Erik’s Wedding at The Bell Tower on 34th | Houston, TX
Some wedding days are elegant from the moment you walk in — and Skyler & Erik’s day at The Bell Tower on 34th was exactly that. Between the timeless architecture, the courtyard vibe, and the way everything flowed from one space to the next, it was the kind of venue that makes the whole day feel elevated without feeling “stiff.”
From emotional moments during the ceremony to a reception that felt like a full-on celebration, this was a wedding day we won’t forget.
A Houston Wedding Venue That Feels Like a Destination
If you’ve never been to The Bell Tower on 34th, it’s one of those Houston venues that doesn’t feel like you’re still in the city. The warm tones, arches, and courtyard spaces give it that classic, European-inspired feel — which photographed beautifully for Skyler & Erik’s portraits and the overall story of their day.
It’s also a venue that’s great for timeline flow: you can move between getting ready, ceremony, portraits, cocktail hour, and reception without spending the day traveling.
Getting Ready + The Anticipation Before the Ceremony
The energy in the morning was the perfect mix of calm and excitement. Those getting-ready moments are always worth documenting — not just the details, but the little reactions, the laughter, and the “this is really happening” feeling that hits right before you walk down the aisle.
Skyler looked incredible, and Erik’s reaction as the day started to feel real was one of our favorite parts of the story.
A Ceremony Full of Meaning
The ceremony space at The Bell Tower on 34th is stunning on its own — but what made it special was how present everyone was. Skyler & Erik had one of those ceremonies where you could feel the emotion from the front row to the back.
The vows, the quiet moments, the way they looked at each other — all of it felt sincere and grounded. The kind of ceremony that reminds you why weddings matter.
Portraits Around The Bell Tower on 34th
One of the best parts about this venue is how many portrait-friendly spots you can access without going far. We used a mix of clean architectural backdrops, soft natural light, and the courtyard textures to create variety — timeless, romantic, and true to who they are.
Skyler & Erik were effortless together, which made the portrait time feel more like a break to breathe and enjoy the day than a “photo session.”
Reception Highlights + A Packed Dance Floor
Once the reception started, it stayed moving. From heartfelt toasts to the big celebration moments, the night had the perfect balance of emotion and energy.
And once the dance floor opened? It was on. The kind of reception where guests don’t need much convincing — they’re already ready.
