When we started planing our ceremony both of us thought about using a cool vintage car for our getaway, but as the planning continued we realized that we just had to stay true to the ranch. Therefore, we went with the typical ranch ride: quads!
I enjoy riding quads so much! They were actually a huge part of the whole planning process. I used them to collect all the branches for our centerpieces, to carry stuff out to the ceremony site, etc. So of course they HAD to be in our wedding day. 
We drove around for some pictures while our guests were transported to the barn, and even though there was mud, I was really careful not to rush through it, so my dress was saved. But Mr. Poodle just wanted speed!
Mr Poodle’s cousin made super cute signs to hang on the back of the quads.
But the wind was so strong that Mr. Poodle’s didn’t last long.
In the end we gave one of the quads to Adi, our photographer, so he could carry all the gear and we jumped on one to head over to our reception.
Kind of redneck according to some, but we just loved it!

Mrs. Poodle, Santiago, Chile/San Bernardino, CA Age and Occupation: 27, Industrial & Web Designer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Firefighter & Mountain Patrol Engagement Date: February 25, 2009 Wedding Date: January 2010 Venue: Mr. P's Grandparents’ Ranch About Me: I’m a Chilean girl who's crazy about nature and swimming. I enjoy carving, drawing, reading and sewing; I drool over computers, fabric, pretty paper, purple and patterns. To me, chocolate should be one of the seven wonders, right next to lemon pie. I never thought an exchange work experience program was going to change my life forever, but while working in California, I met Mr. Poodle, and ever since my days are better and brighter. We are two goofy souls that, after finding each other, couldn’t help but want to be together forever. It has being a long and sometimes hard road, since we have to deal with such a long distance between us, but we are now facing the last stage of our Fiancé Visa, and soon we will be together. You know the best part? We will be married! So I’ll be blogging from Chile until just a few months before our “green and purple” wedding.
