riginality at its best. I look at these photos and I just want to be there. It feels fun and relaxed – rustic with a whimsical twist. An eclectic assortment of frames set the stage for the Bride and Groom to become the most important picture. The collection of vases, bottles and jars, all brought together with the same flowers, makes each table so interesting! What about those boots that the Bride wore! I had the pleasure of meeting this Bride several months before her wedding. After our visit I just knew this wedding was going to be super fun and full of details. And where did this Bride find her inspiration? First off, she’s crazy about turquoise! That set the stage for all that was ahead. A jar given to her from her 93-year-old grandfather inspired her to decorate with the “Vintage” feel that fit her personality perfectly. A long engagement gave her time to shop and think about what she wanted. A hobby of redoing old furniture and the willingness to get her hands dirty made this into their perfect day.

y r t n u Co ic Ch Don’t you love this one? Unique wedding, unique venue. Every little nook of this property is interesting. The outside wedding area has those great rustic chairs and the reception area is decorated perfectly to coordinate with the building’s interiors. Every detail works so well togehter – the flowers, candles, food and furnishings are country and feminine all at the same time. The Bridesmaid dress with the black lace and red ties are a perfect match to the style of the Bride’s gown. The flower girls and that sweet boy with the sign complete the look. It’s another great Oklahoma Style wedding!

asual Rehearsal Dinner
Make it fun, enjoyable and relaxing. This is the time to visit with your wedding party, family and your out of town guests. Rehearse early so you can eat, drink and be merry. Pick your favorite casual place to eat – someplace you both love to hang out. Serve a buffet with all your favorite comfort food. Include your out of town guests, close family, and your wedding party. Create a slide show that highlights your story. How did you meet? Where was the first date? Favorite Date? Places you love to go? Circle of friends? Have the maid of honor and the best man interview you separately and share the video. Include a message from you to your future spouse. Everyone will love this! Have your photographer on hand to take candid photos. Entertain everyone with card games, karaoke or find a wedding guest to play guitar. There are so many ideas! Send out invitations with dress code included. Ask the guests to wear their favorite college team shirt, boots and hats or maybe they all need to wear something in your wedding colors. Do something unexpected. Create a schedule. Meet with the restaurant’s manager. Be clear about your expectations. Get it in writing. Understand the cost per person, taxes, gratuity, bar charges, rentals, etc. Just enjoy.
