Chic Tulsa Barn Wedding at Dream Point Ranch

August 23, 2018 | Junebug Weddings

Brooks and Austin made rustic chic look effortless in their Oklahoma wedding at Dream Point Ranch. The venue, which is situated atop the tallest point in Tulsa Country, offered a stunning view for their outdoor ceremony and a crisp, elegant space for their indoor reception. Ever Something Floral took cues from the couple’s laid-back vibe and created simple white and green arrangements, adding a subtle pop of peach to the bride’s bouquet and the groom’s boutonniere. For their reception meal, Brooks and Austin kept it casual with pizza from Andolinis Pizza and ended the night with cake, cookies, and milk shots! Every inch of this wedding was rustic chic to the max, and Patricia P Photography captured it all beautifully.

The Couple:

Brooks and Austin

The Wedding:

Dream Point Ranch, Tulsa, Oklahoma

Austin got me Tiffany & Co. earrings and I got him custom cufflinks from Etsy with our wedding date on them!

The most important thing when planning our wedding was to remember why we were planning a wedding in the first place. It is so easy to get sidetracked with everything you want for your big day to make it perfect. It is also easy to forget to put your energy into preparing for your future marriage. Enjoy your season of planning but also enjoy preparing to be a husband or wife. It’s such a precious time!

The ceremony was one of the most memorable parts of our day. The man who married us is a dear friend, and he made it very personable. Another memorable moment was when my 11-year-old sister gave her speech during the reception. So many happy tears!

My dad is my absolute best friend. He has fought for me and fought for my heart to be guarded all growing up. When he “gave me away,” it wasn’t the typical “my wife and I do” answer. He spoke for a few minutes about what it really meant for him to give me away and how much of an honor it is to give me away to Austin. It meant so much to me! After my dad spoke, we had worship. We sang “O Come To The Altar” by Elevation Worship. That was such a surreal few minutes of worshiping with all of our people in one place. We also wrote our own vows, which made our ceremony so personal.

Dream Point Ranch is one of Tulsa’s newest venues. I knew I wanted to have our wedding there because ours was one of the first weddings so it would be new for the guests, as well. It is a beautiful barn that is high up on a hill. The view is breath-taking!

I am more of a laid back person, and that was the vibe of our wedding. If I had to describe the vibe, it would be rustic chic. We didn’t do a sit-down meal or have name placements. We served pizza and salad for dinner and wedding cake and chocolate chip cookies with milk shots for dessert! That’s my kind of party right there.

Processional (Bridal Party) – “Vous Etes Mon Coeur (You Are My Heart)” by Gungor
Processional (Bride) – “There Is A Cloud” by Elevation Worship
Recessional – “ILYSB” by LANY
First Dance – “Clear” by NeedToBreath

I loved all the candid dancing photos. I never realized I made such silly faces when I am really getting it on the dance floor. HA!

The Floral Design in This Cavalli Estate Cape Town Wedding will Blow Your Mind

August 22, 2018 | Junebug Weddings

When art lovers Suhanri and Jacques decided to tie the knot at Cavalli Estate, they drew on the modern, contemporary vibes of the venue to create a wedding day that was truly one-of-a-kind. Their floral design created by Fleur Le Cordeur was a work of art in itself and featured a geometric ceremony arch covered with large blooms, ceiling installations bursting with color and texture, and a cascading bridal bouquet unlike any we’ve ever seen. This talented florist even made custom floral prints that Suhanri and Jacques used to create table runners, a backdrop for their wedding party table, and all the paper goods. As if that wasn’t enough, Suhanri and her good friend Casper Bosman designed her wedding dress and the bridesmaids’ dresses, which were personalized with sequin, feathers, lace, and tassels for a whimsical, elegant feel that complemented the entire wedding vibe. Claire Thomson Photography totally nailed it in capturing every unbelievably beautiful element of this South African wedding!

Do as much you can by yourself. The planning of it all is part of the experience. Be involved and have a personal touch. Don’t stress: it is meant to be the most precious journey. Get a day-of coordinator to make sure everything runs smoothly. Plan well and do everything you can up to the day before the wedding to ensure you are stress-free and present on your wedding day. And remember, the day is about you as a couple — do what you feel is best. Don’t make decisions based on what your guests would love; do what you love!

In the end, all that matters is getting married. The moment we said, “I do,” was the most incredible feeling. Then nothing else mattered. Our pastor poured us each a glass of red wine to celebrate our marriage, and to have our first toast with each other. That was a special moment, and one we will always remember!

The modern, contemporary design of the venue blew us away. We had our 3-year anniversary dinner at the venue’s restaurant and vowed that it would be our venue when we got married. One year later, it was! The mountain views, vineyards, and the pristine sunken garden were perfect for the style we were going for. The venue also has an art gallery and, being an art lover, it just felt meant to be!

We got engaged at Keukenhof Garden in Amsterdam, between fields and fields of tulips. So, we used that as our inspiration for the wedding design. The combination of extravagant flowers and patterns was total perfection.

Our florist really brought everything together. She did a personal shoot of floral arrangements for us based on our personalities and our love for textures and patterns. She also took into account how we got engaged and our love for modern art. That image was the center of our entire wedding vibe. We printed it on fabric for our table runners, used it as a backdrop for our bridal table, and used it for our confetti cones, wedding invitations, photo booth strip designs, and also as inspiration for our stationary.

Minimalist Tropical Prospect House Wedding in the Texas Hill Country

August 21, 2018 | Junebug Weddings

When Corpus Christi sweethearts Elise and Schuyler planned their Prospect House wedding, they brought a tropical and minimalist vibe to the Texas Hill Country that could not have been more beautiful! Grant Daniels Photography captured every moment of this gorgeous wedding, from the sweet bridesmaids reveal to the emotional first look to the couple’s private last dance before their sparkler exit. Although the details were minimal, the overall look of the copper accents, tropical greenery, and sentimental framed photos was classic and elegant in the otherwise blank slate venue. Florists Remi & Gold truly brought the space to life with large leaf centerpieces and wall installations, and the simple addition of a neon sign with the couple’s name added just the right amount of casual-cool flair to the décor. Simply put: this Hill Country wedding was minimalist, tropical, and laid-back done right!

The Couple:

Elise and Schuyler

The Wedding:

Prospect House, Dripping Springs, Texas

Our photographer, Grant Daniels, was Simply incredible. He was so pleasant to work with and his photos were stunning, something we will treasure for a lifetime.

Our best wedding planning advice is to simply focus on what is important to you both and cut out anything that isn’t important or meaningful. That allowed me to put my effort into focal points of my wedding instead of stressing about all the little things I knew I wouldn’t even notice.

Prospect House is absolutely stunning even without any decorations. The beauty of the simplicity attracted me to this venue knowing I had a blank slate to make it our own.

After the reception was over and all the guests exited the building for the sparkler exit, Schuyler and I shared one last dance with no one else around. We were able to take it all in. I remember looking out and seeing the tables all messed up and dirty dishes around, and it made me so happy to know all of our favorite people had filled up that space and were there for us. At that moment, it sunk in that the wedding all happened — it was over and it all felt so perfect!
