Haute on the Ranch: Wedding a Wimer!
For more than a decade, we’d talked about what this day would look like. I think that’s what all best friends do, right? And even though it may have taken a little longer coming to fruition than we thought it would at 18 and 20, seeing all your best friend’s dreams come true on such a special day is everything I could have hoped it would be. Cheers (one more time) to an incredible day for two of the best people I know! It certainly was worth the wait, and the memories captured in these photos will last a lifetime...
Anyone that knows Ryley, knows she has an eye for details, and this day was no exception. There may have been some challenging moments getting there, but in the end, the details paid off in a big way -- it truly was the "Cowboys & Indians" wedding she'd always dreamed of having.
Like these custom, hand-painted boots by HD West Leather, and this custom bouquet wrap that Michael surprised her with by Lazy K Leather.
The bridesmaids and groomsmen all received some fun surprises of their own… Southwest inspired shorts to wear with our denim shirts while getting ready, some turquoise soaps and a cactus ring holder, among a couple of other things... And how about the guys’ custom bottle openers?!
Ryley and Michael exchanged sweet gifts and a letter before the ceremony. Ryley gave Michael a custom buckle, and he gave her these diamond studs to match her gorgeous rose gold and diamond ring setting. And in the letters? Well, I guess we’ll never know...
For her parents, Ryley gifted them each a sweet, embroidered handkerchief -- which I know came in handy a little later in the day...
From there the attention to detail only continued with the ceremony and reception decor... the guest book signing and guests' branding of the steer skull… the braiding of the rope... the retro truck and trailer bar… these beautiful (and fun!) centerpieces… the cake and head table decor…
And come sunset it’s safe to say that a grand ole time was had by all thanks to live music by Taylor Kline and some killer DJ shenanigans.
