Kayla's Wedding--Rustic Chic

One of my favorite people in the world, my cousin Kayla got married in May. She's two years younger than me, and growing up we've always been like sisters. We have such a special bond, and it was so great being her Maid of Honor. We've always talked about how our future weddings would be, who we would marry, etc., and now all of that unfolded!

She chose Bottom View Farm for her venue. The wedding and reception both took place inside the barn on the property. Surrounding the farm were little houses and shops, set up to resemble an old town. It turned out perfect for photos. The bridal party was made up of 10 people, plus a bible bearer, and two flower girls. One of my favorite parts of the wedding was her having her little brother, Blake, walk her down the aisle.

The decorations she chose went with a Rustic Chic theme. Cute mason jars filled with Baby's Breath, lots of pallet art, string lights, and other fun odds and ends. All of the bridesmaids wore boots with our dresses and the guys had boutonnieres made of wheat. And instead of a traditional meal during the reception, they had a yummy dessert bar, catered by Trey's grandparents. It was such a gorgeous wedding!

Enjoy the pics :)

Bridesmaids being silly!

Trey and his mom. So adorb!

Zippin her up!

This was Kay's "Something Blue". They pinned this inside her dress.

Her "Something Old" was a penny that she put in her boot from the year she was born.

Kayla and her mama! Love them.

This is her precious little brother, Blake. He was so mature and so proud to give his sister away!

Praying with the groom.

Praying with the bride. Additionally, all of the bridesmaids went around and said a prayer for the couple. Right after, we had to rush to fix our makeup because we had all been crying lol.

Us with our precious grandma. She looked so beautiful!

Dawson (the Bible bearer) and his girlfriend! He was so sad to see her get married.

It was super hot out so we made the programs into fans! Taking a bit of a fun, non-traditional approach, everyone threw black eyed peas for good luck at the end of the reception!

These programs came out adorably! I made them all, and if you are interested in me making you a similar design for your wedding, please email me or shoot me a message on my Etsy shop!

Here comes the Bride :)

Giving her away

They toasted with Coke! What a fun idea!

Kay, I can't believe you are someone's wife now! You have such a great head on your shoulders and you are wise beyond your years. You are going to be a fantastic wife and mommy to all your future babies. I know this because ever since we were little and we played house, I always had to be the Dad because you just HADDDD to be the mom! You've been practicing since day one ;) I'm so happy that you are going to live happily ever after. I love you so much Kayler!

Trey, I hope you know what you're getting yourself into! Haha, just kidding! Welcome to this crazy family. Thank you for making my little baby Kay the happiest she's ever been. I couldn't have picked anyone better for her. Love you!

I couldn't be happier for them. Kayla is so deserving of such a great love, especially from someone like Trey. I wish them so many years of wedding bliss. Enjoy the beginning of yall's marriage, then get on to makin' me some precious nieces and nephews!
