WESTERNWedding A Branded

The most romantic season of the year is upon us…Wedding Season! We love getting to know the western brides and grooms that visit us at Cheyenne Ranch so we can help them pull together and create the perfect wedding that represents their lifestyle. The entire wedding party, including the sponsors of the bride and groom, the bridesmaids and groomsmen, the grandparents, and all family and guests, are key parts of the vision; every detail is important with this day being one of their most important lifelong memories. With a western wedding, all the textures, jewelry, clothing, accessories, and even the gifts bring the whole look together!

It’s an Event

Leading up to the big day there are many festivities like showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties--and let’s not forget the honeymoon! It’s a detailed planning process. Brand your vision...your style matters!

The Outfits

Brides and Grooms are incorporating so many unique personal and unconventional touches that represent their love for the western lifestyle. Think warm autumn hues, fringe, lace, sequins, and other great textures and silhouettes for dresses and other fun outfits that match the style of each individual bridesmaid and guest. Here are some ideas to bring your vision to life. Try big statement accessories like a bridal cowboy hat and cowboy hats for the groom and his groomsmen. Unconventional jackets – like suede, tweeds, or leather with patterned or denim shirts paired with jeans for the guys. Gorgeous boots for all! Native American sterling with gemstones or turquoise jewelry will compliment the look!

Something Turquoise & Wedding Traditions

Adding turquoise to your bridal look, whether it be a bracelet, earrings, or a statement piece like a Squash Blossom necklace, will add a beautiful pop of color. Whether it’s new, old, or borrowed, it’s definitely “blue” and; based on wedding tradition, will help bring the promise of a “good and happy marriage.”

Gifts for WeddingtheParty

Giving thoughtful gifts to the wedding party and important loved ones is the best way to thank them for being a key part of the wedding – and your lives. Besides the “I Do’s”, asking family or friends to be by your side on this special day is part of the excitement! Gift them a pair of beautiful earrings, a Navajo Pearl bracelet, or a stunning necklace to compliment their bridesmaid dresses on the wedding day! Gifts for guys might include flasks, drinkware, ball caps, cufflinks, and other meaningful gifts they can continue to use for years while remembering this special time.

A Toast toYou!

When Cody and I reflect back on our own wedding, every special and unique detail and every person that shared it with us are all part of the captivating memories that we’ll have for the rest of our lives. Our hope and wish for every bride and groom... beautiful blessings and a life full of health, happiness, prosperity, and peace!

Until next time... Cheers!

Jordan & Jake

Jake and I first met when he attended the First Baptist Church of Maypearl. He had been stationed in Hawaii for the Navy where his pastor gave him a list of five churches to try once he arrived home. After trying out two of the churches on the list, he decided to attend First Baptist Church of Maypearl. Upon arrival, he was greeted with love by everyone there and he just so happened to sit directly in front of the row where I was sitting with my parents. One of the Deacons of the church walked up to our family and pointed towards Jake, telling us that he was new to the church and joked that he was single. My father, Joe, instantly walked up to Jake and introduced our (Davis) family to him, making sure he emphasized me...his daughter! After the service, my Dad invited Jake to lunch and then my parents left after we finished eating. Once my parents got back to their truck, my Dad immediately wrote in his prayer journal. Jake asked me to stay after eating so we could get to know each other a little better. We ended up hanging around together an additional two hours before exchanging numbers and then proceeded to spend every moment we could together from then on. Jake proposed to me on March 12 during a special Highland cow photo shoot, surrounded by family! We were married a few months later at The Graily in Waxahachie on June 24, 2023!

Jordan’s Advice: Communication is key, especially during the wedding planning process. The best thing we did to start our marriage was premarital classes with our pastor, Tony Sheffield. Try and remember to relax. Don’t let the stress of one day affect your relationship. Your wedding day goes by so fast, so take little moments to pause and soak it all in.
