hether it’s a lavish fete involving a gargantuan guest list, a fleet of limos and a tuxedo-clad string section, or a small-scale barefoot beach affair with the roaring surf for musical accompaniment, a successful wedding should be a celebration – the key ingredients are happiness and anticipation about starting a new chapter of your lives together. The ceremony and reception(s) are the couple’s opportunity to express that joy and share it with their friends and loved ones – as these two nuptials show, the location can be inside or out, rustic or regal. As long as the details are correct and the soulmates are in sync, beautiful memories are bound to follow.

Laci Jackson & Michael Ravina Gaylord-Pickens Oklahoma Heritage Museum, Oklahoma City DETAILS Gown custom-made by Claire Kennedy with Claire Kennedy Designs Attendants Bridesmaids by Watters, flower girls by David’s Bridal Florist Trochta’s Cake(s) Madison’s on Main Planner Camden Chitwood from Emerson Events & Design When asked what prompted the choice of this venue, Laci replied, “We have always loved the architecture of the museum and that it is located in the heart of OKC, where we call home. Many of our guests traveled from the east and west coasts, so we loved having everything in one location as it allowed us to spend more time with our guests by not having to rush from one place to another. The garden was a perfect setting for our ceremony; we both wanted to marry outdoors. We held a cocktail hour after the ceremony in the gardens and then moved upstairs to the great hall for a seated dinner [catered by Good Egg Dining Group] and dancing.” JANUARY 2015 // SLICE 47

Southwind Hills, Goldsby DETAILS Gown by Jim Hjelm, purchased at Meg Guess Couture Florist Southwind Hills Cake(s) Madison’s on Main Planner Kristiana herself, with assistance from Southwind Hills “My husband and I instantly fell in love with the rustic wedding venue once we walked in the door,” said Kristiana about Southwind Hills. “It’s not only stunning, but they provided all of the details: food and drinks, flowers, decorations, the rehearsal dinner … [they even] went above and beyond to even allow us to have a helicopter land on their property and take us away at the end of our perfect night! There was not one stressful step in planning our wedding.” 48 SLICE // JANUARY 2015
