All I can say is that this bride and her bridesmaids know how to rock the cowboy boots and make them look so stylish and pretty. I do not consider myself a country girl, but I am loving this wedding and all the country style details. One detail that has my heart in full gear is the cute wedding party attendant. No, I am not refering to a groomsmen! But I am talking about a furry friend who is so adorable, I cant stand it! What a sweet idea to incorporate the couple’s dog into their wedding. I love it! Before heading off to start the weekend, make sure you take a look at the lovely images captured by From the Hip Photo. Get ready to say “Aww, and “How cute”, several times over and over again. Well, at least that is what I said.
Kaitlyn and Ryan met by chance on a cruise while on vacation with family and friends in 2007. They met in a casino when Ryan gave Kaitlyn gambling advice. After years of a long distance relationship, they were engaged in Cocoa Beach, Florida, when a plane flew over the ocean with a banner reading, “I love you Kaitlyn, will you marry me?”. Their wedding in Denver took place in June and was a gorgeous, country-chic day with plenty of unique DIY touches to reflect their laidback personalities.
Throughout the day, the couple enjoyed being surrounded by loved ones. The bridal party featured a Brides-man, and the family dog, Zoe, was their flower girl. The ceremony was officiated by a close friend of the couple who was ordained just for the occasion! There were also plenty of Western details as a nod to the bride’s hometown – from a signature Prickly Pear Margarita to a bridal party n cowboy boots. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a reception with DIY touches (flowers arranged by the bride!), antique décor from Kaitlyn’s grandmother, yard games, hula-hoops, and personalized shot glasses and whiskey favors.
Kaitlyn and Ryan created a reception with an ideal atmosphere for their guests to enjoy themselves and be comfortable, and everyone had a wonderful time letting loose! Congrats to the happy couple!
