We're Married! (And my horse was a bridesmaid!)

A little late posting this but we got married just over 3 months ago. The planning was pretty much stress free (with lots of DIY), the day was perfect and relaxed and low key - we had a blast! We got married in the Greek Church and then had our reception outside. My wonderful husband graciously allowed my horse to be a bridesmaid in the wedding and we had a custom made "bridle gown" for her to match the other bridesmaids. Dinner was served family style under a tent and the rest of the reception and dance floor was outside under the stars. We had the greatest day ever! Enjoy the photos!

    Ha, that's so awesome! I love that you incorporated your horse into your wedding day, and appreciate your story of adopting her. The wedding day kisses are the best. (Also, I have a dog named Buffy.)

    I also like your other bridemaids' dresses and your dress and flowers too. Congrats!

    Thanks again everyone! Buffy is an American Saddlebred and I show her Saddleseat which is a high stepping style of riding similar to dressage. I also take her trail riding a lot, jump her, and have her stand up in my wedding. She does a bit of everything!

    We had such a fun time planning our wedding, didn't take anything too seriously, and just lived by the idea of having a day that was a reflection our ourselves and our love of each other and life. There was zero stress the day of the wedding. I had no real vision set in stone other than a sort of concert theme, and dancing under the stars so it was easy for everything to come together perfectly because there was nothing set in stone. I'm so happy we were able to keep the day about US and not the event itself <3
