From Hallways to Aisles: Northern Country Charm

Written By Amanda

I’ve always been a big city girl, but I’d be lying if I said the big, open sky doesn’t call me every now and then. Riding horses, picking home-grown produce and relaxing at night with a big bonfire all in the seclusion of nature does seem like a relaxing change of pace. Now I just wish we had more barns around this area…..

Inspired by: burlap, cowboy boots, jean jackets, sunflowers, old barns, sprawling land, mountains, mason jars, horses, Big Sky Montana

Barn weddings have yet to go out of style, and those are partly what inspired me so much this week. Whether you keep it casual or dress them up with draping and chandeliers, there are so many ways to make a simple barn unique and entertaining for your guests. Baby’s Breath is versatile for country weddings – stick a bunch in galvanized tubs for ceremony decor or use them for a simple bridesmaid bouquet. Farmhouse windows can be used for escort cards or even to display dinner menus or family photos.

I love the idea of dressing down your dress for the reception, in this case taking a jean jacket and a pair of cowboy boots to this spectacular Justin Alexander gown. Pin your hair up in a sweet chignon and stay rooted in family values with a antique ring passed down throughout the family tree.
