New Zealand Honeymoon: Part I

February 2nd, 2010 @ 2:23 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

Once we finally arrived in Christchurch, on the east coast of the South Island, after our horrible debacle flying to New Zealand, we were ready to start our trip. One of our favorite parts? Our rental car and driving, not only on the wrong side of the road, but on the wrong side of the car! [Note: Mr. CB didn’t let me drive once. Probably…

New Zealand Honeymoon: A Scary Start

January 26th, 2010 @ 4:59 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

Scene: It’s 2 AM on our double-decker 747 airplane. We’re two hours out of Los Angeles, somewhere over a dark Pacific Ocean. Mr. Cowboy Boot and I scored the bulkhead seats (front row with extra leg room) for letting the flight attendants know we were on our honeymoon. Mr. CB is snoozing away next to me while I read and combat heavy eyelids in hopes…

P to the W to the C

What does that spell? Post-wedding chop!

I did it, everyone. I had to. It was down to my waist and I couldn’t stand the static, tangles, and hair-always-in-my-way. It was heavy, unhealthy, and ready for a trim.

Love at The Ranch: Our Video Teaser!

January 17th, 2010 @ 6:40 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

To say that nothing went “wrong” at our wedding would be an understatement.

We ran out of appetizers 15 minutes into our cocktail hour. Storm clouds swelled throughout the day forcing our ceremony from an expansive meadow into a cozy barn. The photo booth backdrop didn’t end up being quite enough fabric to encompass a large group of guests. Our band played for longer than planned…

Love at The Ranch: Thank You Cards

January 7th, 2010 @ 2:31 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

There were two things we really wanted to include in our wedding that didn’t happen: 1) our dogs and 2) our “thank you” signs, done in calligraphy. The reasons we didn’t include our precious pups as ring bearers? Debated here.

Our “thank you” signage, penned by Pretty Pen Jen, never made it out of the cabin where all of the ladies got ready on the morning…

Love at The Ranch: Too Soon?

January 5th, 2010 @ 6:49 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

It’s only been three months since our rustic, ranch affair, but I think I might be ready to say goodbye. No, not to you, hive, and certainly not to Mr. Cowboy Boot, but to Julianna, my beloved, floating pool of ivory tulle. She originally came into my life in the Beverly Hills Saks Fifth Avenue and made me tingle, flit, and giggle like a school…

About Mrs. Cowboy Boot

I am interrupting my final wedding recap to talk about an issue that is really crucial when it comes to weddings: DOCs (day-of-coordinators). I, like many brides, thought I could go without. But as the weeks neared our wedding date and I started to visualize a timeline for the few days before the wedding, I couldn’t figure out when I would have time to set…

Ornamental Inspiration

December 22nd, 2009 @ 5:29 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

After being asked to design a wedding inspiration board based around a Christmas ornament, I immediately turned to Anthropologie. They have an eclectic assortment of ornaments (that I constantly covet) and I knew I’d be inspired. I sorted through the various deer, owls, mushrooms, and stars and settled on a carnival ornament that reminds me of all things Moroccan, gypsy, hippie, and whimsical: The One-of-a-Kind…

Love at The Ranch: Portraits

In an effort to drag our wedding out by (at least) one. more. post. I thought I’d show you some of the amazing portraits our photographer, Tec, captured throughout the day. There weren’t many of them, but the ones that were sprinkled in with our wedding pictures were strong and beautiful. They make me want to print them out for our guests and give them…

About Mrs. Cowboy Boot

Soon after the first dance and father-daughter dance ended, everyone was on the dance floor. One of our friends is a square-dance “caller”, meaning he calls the next move at square dance events, so thanks to him, everyone was having a blast dosey-doe-ing.

Love at The Ranch: Special Dances

December 15th, 2009 @ 5:57 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

After toasts and feeding each other cherry pie, after everyone had exhausted the photo booth and enjoyed some ribs and cornbread, it was time for the first dance. Our band, Elephant Revival, took the stage (they’d learned Neil Young’s Harvest Moon for us). If you remember, our wedding coincidentally fell on the night of the Harvest Moon which we didn’t figure out until after we’d…

Love at The Ranch: Reception Signage

December 11th, 2009 @ 6:38 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

A while back, I asked all of you for help with our reception signs. You offered up your best rhymes but nothing clicked until I got home and looked at my stamp collection. I’d bought an adorable stamp from Hobby Lobby with the word “Love” on it, which I used on our out-of-town bags. I decided I’d make the signs cohesive by incorporating the stamp…

Love at The Ranch: The Pie Bar!

December 10th, 2009 @ 4:47 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

Cake did not make an appearance at our wedding. Instead, we served up a pie bar (by Denver’s Teacup Bakery) for our guests to enjoy. All eight pies were natural and organic. We had the venue cut the pies into 12 slices, instead of 8, so people could enjoy multiple flavors. You’d want to too, given these flavors: blueberry peach, cherry, apple, pumpkin, caramel apple,…

About Mrs. Cowboy Boot

After dinner (which was a scrumptious barbecue feast), the toasts began. We hadn’t made a timeline for all of this, but our day-of-coordinator was on top of her game and made sure things flowed smoothly. Everyone faced the front as my dad took the microphone.

I was really nervous for my dad because he has faced serious shyness his entire life, but he did beautifully.

Love at The Ranch: The Photo Booth

December 7th, 2009 @ 4:34 pm by Mrs. Cowboy Boot

I’ve been soooo excited to write this post! Our photo booth was a complete experiment and I was thrilled when I looked through the pictures afterwards to find complete success. Because our cocktail hour ended up inside of our reception barn, the photo booth was really popular as an activity during that time. A line even formed a few times throughout the hour. Plus, there…
