Real Party: Ranch Wedding

I've mentioned my friends Jason &Jen here before.  
Last weekend we finally celebrated at their long-awaited wedding and I cannot wait to share all the fun details!  It was such a beautiful day.  The couple had truly thought of everything. 

The venue was a gorgeous ranch outside of Seattle, complete with green fields & a barn. 

The ceremony took place outside, looking over a meadow with mountain peaks in the distance. Gorgeous! 

The colors were coral & gray.  I loved the bridesmaid dresses and coral shoes. (Speaking of shoes - wait until you see the bride's!)

Jason & Jen were married by a high school friend of Jason's.  
They look so happy!

Directly after the ceremony we walked over to an outdoor cocktail hour.  An adorable sign made by the best man led the way. It pointed out locations for the night's events and displayed distances to meaningful places to the couple (who've done an enviable amount of traveling). 
 Isn't it adorable? 
(We traveled here with Jason &; Jen!)

We enjoyed the views and had appetizers and cocktails (virgin for me!).
How cute are those stir sticks? And the twine-wrapped vases? I died. 

Dinner & dancing were in the barn. 

I can't even explain how much I love white lights. They make a rustic space seem so elegant. 

The bar in the reception was definitely not forgotten.  I loved the gray straws and lace wrapped J&J.  A frame displayed drink choices. 

The gorgeous centerpieces were put together by a friend of the bride.  Vases of different blooms were cluster on a stump over a burlap runner.  More burlap, fabric, and lace were tied to the vases. 

Since Jen loves brownies, and Jason made them for her on one of their first dates...it was only fitting that instead of traditional cake they served brownies.  

Touching toasts, silly photo booth pictures, and fun dancing finished off the night! 


Luckiest guy in the world: It's true. :) 
Congratulations Jason & Jen!

I almost forgot her shoes! 
Aren't they perfect?
