WESTERN LUXE WEDDING IN WYOMING
This September, my team and I had the honor of traveling to Wyoming to dress our bride Natalie for her western luxe wedding weekend at Brush Creek Ranch. The wedding celebration consisted of three amazing event-filled days leading up to the wedding day, which capped off the trip in the most picturesque way.
As bridal stylists and wedding day dressers, we always love having the chance to spend more time with our brides and assist with their bridal outfits for all of their wedding weekend events. From attending bridal dress fittings before wedding day, to steaming and preparing the bride’s and wedding party outfits on wedding day, to ensuring the bride and groom look their best every moment of the wedding day, our services are all encompassing and our attention to detail will leave everyone relaxed on wedding day.
Natalie and Ben, have a deep love for animals, especially horses, as Natalie grew up as an equestrian. When it came time to choose a destination for their wedding, Brush Creek Ranch was the perfect fit. Natalie had over 12 bridal looks, curated by stylist The Bold and The Bridal for her entire wedding weekend, including four for the wedding day itself. Each look was more breathtaking than the last.
Natalie and Ben’s wedding day had perfect crisp fall weather, with plenty of sunshine to bring all the features of the ranch to life. The bride had hair and makeup services done with her bridal party while wearing a feminine Rodarte slip dress. When it came time to step into her Zuhair Murad wedding gown and veil, it took all three dressers to assist, a magical moment for sure!
Beautiful blonde horses were present throughout the day, including for the first look. Natalie first saw Ben surrounded by horses. The images captured by Erich Mcvey of this moment paint it perfectly, a real life princess moment. With my team and I there by the bride and groom’s side, we were able to make sure every detail was perfect and clean so they could enjoy it. For the ceremony, Natalie even rode in on a horse- it was a pinch me moment assisting her in her gown on and off the horse to prepare to walk down the aisle!
For Natalie’s wedding reception look, she stunned in a vintage Chanel gown paired with floral diamond earrings. For cutting the cake, she switched into a classic, clean Vivienne Westwood gown, and put her hair up to reveal a gorgeous diamond necklace by Maison Spoiled. Last but not least, for their disco themed after party, Natalie donned a custom One Of celestial jumpsuit with custom headpiece. Every piece came together flawlessly and we were so honored to be there to execute the fashion for this epic day.
