I had an opportunity to some time back to be present at a western wedding. It was one of the most beautiful occasions and also very surprising. The venue was fashionably decorated in a western by the bride and groom. It was most unlike what I had in mind. With the invitation of a western wedding, I was expecting a very informal and relaxed affair not fit for a reception but then I was not right.
The first indication that the couple was having a western wedding was apparent in the invitations. The couple chose an invitation design that used a cowboy hat and a bouquet of flowers as the central focus. The lovely icons were set on top of a bale of hay that was delicately placed to the left of the attractive notes.
The couple opted to write their own personal note for the guests to read and they stuck to the western wedding theme by indicating that they were "getting hitched" and providing the details about the event. This charming presentation was generally informal but the beautiful design and elegant quality of the invitations balanced the casual attitude of the note.
The maid of honor had chosen a very fitting gift for the guests at the bridal shower. It was a well crafted brilliant little interesting box pendant and earring set in a cowboy hat. All the boxes were made like a hat which when opened showed a pendant necklace or earrings. The maid of honor was very pleased with her choice and the best part was it did not even cost too much. They were beautiful mementos for a western wedding and would be cherished by all.
Wine was presented to the bride and groom in an unusual way. There was a cowboy wine holder on the bridal table. The base of the wine holder was a horseshoe and attached to the base was a cowboy made out of horseshoes as well. His metal arms were outstretched to hold four wine glasses (that were adorned with running horses) and his bowed legs held the wine. This wonderful piece fit right into the western wedding theme.
But noting could have made the occasion more appropriate than the splendid gown worn by the bride. It included a short pearls and lace train. You could not have called it a ballroom gown but it did radiate a lot of elegance. To complete the attire the bride wore a well ornamented cowgirl hat with a mild veil. - 15431
