We love an outdoor wedding, and you are going to adore Hannah and Caleb’s beautiful wedding in Oklahoma. The rustic barn and the dreamy white gazebo nestled beneath the trees is the perfect location for this gorgeous wedding. Hannah’s incredible Maggie Sottero wedding dress, the abundance of spectacular flowers, and the vintage coke bottles used for the toasts; we really do have a treat for you today.
Anna Lee Media has really captured this wedding in all its wonderful glory…
“The theme of our wedding was “rustic chic”. With a large event barn on location and a dreamy white gazebo nestled beneath the trees, Harn Homestead, a historical museum located close to the Oklahoma State Capital, proved to be the ideal venue to make our dreams a reality.
“The decorations/details of the wedding added character and beauty to our special day. There were LOADS of fresh, gorgeous flowers and greenery, including on the guest sign in table, hanging on shepherds’ hooks lining the aisle, and perfectly placed at the reception in the barn. A pretty good portion of our budget went toward the fresh flowers, and in the end it was completely worth it!
“A very memorable thing about our wedding was that several of our decorations, including the pinwheels, chalkboard signs and pendants, were DIY projects. Seeing all our dreams become reality on the day of our wedding was one of the most rewarding moments of our lives. We had so many family members and friends come out to help set up/ break down, and it absolutely could not have happened without them! The bouquets, boutonnières, and flower arraignments were handmade with love by my mother and a couple very special family friends. The string lighting we had above the dance floor and in the barn during the reception set the mood for a magical evening.
“Our song for our first dance was “I Will Be Here” by Steven Curtis Chapman, and perfectly reflects our commitment to grow in love with each other through every season of life, no matter how difficult times may become.
“A special little touch that we loved having was vintage coke bottles to toast with during the best man and maid of honour’s speeches — very cute and refreshing. Caleb was asked during the reception to play the electric guitar with the band, and that was great surprise for the guests as well as me! At the end of the night we were sent off with a sparkling farewell from our guests lighting the path to our car with sparklers. By the end of it all it was hard to believe that earlier that morning our outdoor wedding had been threatened by lighting and rain showers. We were so thankful and blessed that we were able to have the ceremony outside, and having to move the reception completely inside the barn was more beautiful than the original plan ever could have looked.”
