Casey and Cole’s vision for their Spain Ranch wedding was “simple elegance” — and we think they totally nailed it! We’re absolutely blown away by all of the floral masterpieces Anthousai<\/a> created for this day and how they incorporated sentimental touches like the beads around the stem of Casey’s bouquet. And the elegant details don’t stop at the florals! We love the couple’s adorable Our Vows<\/a> books, creative stationary suite by SHINE Wedding Invitations<\/a>, and stunning Lauranne Baking Co.<\/a> cake. We can’t wait for you to see all of this Spain Ranch wedding goodness captured by photographer Chelsea Reece<\/a> and videographer Reagan Lynn Films<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The gold beads wrapped around my bouquet have been worn by each bride in my family since 1839. Not a single couple who wore them has gotten divorced which I think is so beautiful!<\/em><\/p>\n

I didn’t have anyone (besides my mother, mother-in law, and sister) see the wedding dress prior to the big day – not even photos! My bridesmaids had no idea about the style, veil, etc. which was a fun surprise to all. So, aside from the many photos I cherish of me and Cole, I love the photo that captured the reaction when my girls first see me in the dress!<\/em><\/p>\n

If you’re considering a first look, do it! I was nervous that walking down the isle wouldn’t feel as special but, personally, that was not the case at all. To allow a little bit of a surprise, I decided to wear my veil only during the ceremony – not during the first look. Lastly, since this allowed us to take photos prior to the ceremony there was more time for us (and our wedding party) to enjoy at the reception.<\/em><\/p>\n

Our floral company, Anthousai, was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning they were professional, creative, and attentive to the details I hoped for. They worked so hard to make all floral dreams come true!<\/em><\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

We decided to have the programs be more fun and “entertaining” rather than the very classic look of everything else. We included things like “first guest to RSVP” and “farthest traveled” and all the locations of significant events in our relationship over the years!<\/em><\/p>\n

Cole and I each wrote each other letters that we read out-loud while at the altar. His grandfather, who is his absolute hero, got to marry us right after. It was such a special moment!<\/em><\/p>\n

I loved everything about Spain Ranch – the location, the versatility. It was also important to me to have the ceremony and reception be at the same venue!<\/em><\/p>\n

I knew I wanted to incorporate my grandmothers sterling silver candelabras as the table centerpieces so we started with that and worked our way outwards. They are over 150 years old and were such a special touch to me and my family on the big day!<\/em><\/p>\n
