An Intimate Boho Wedding

Boho ~ Chic ~ Fun

Sierra and David initially started with a big wedding plan. Along the way, they realized their dream day was intimate, small, and personal instead of a big celebration and traditional bridal party. They were married in an intimate ceremony with family & a few close friends at the charming and historic Canyon Ranch. With boho and western details in neutral tones with sage, blush, green, and white.

Wyoming destination wedding photographer Thistle & Tulle captured the love and details of their day.

Their boys and dogs stood up during the ceremony as the wedding party, which took place under a simple wooden arch with boho-inspired flowers and cowhide rugs.

They chose an intimate, private dinner at a restaurant in Sheridan, WY. We installed a neon name sign over their sweetheart table with flowers mounted to the way behind for a statement over the couple. Their guests were seated at one long table lined with locally made dishes, bud vases with flowers in neutral tones and dried details with a loose greenery garland bringing it all together. Sheridan, WY baker Manny Cakes, created a small naked cake topped with flowers for cutting and gorgeous custom cookies and macarons for their guests to take home as favors.

Congratulations!

A Wyoming Elopement in May

Happy - Fun - Day

Connor and Joe planned an intimate late Spring elopement with their nearest and dearest at the historic Eaton’s Ranch in Wolf, Wyoming, and followed up with a big party in August with all their friends. I was honored to bring the flower magic to both events, and we picked a colorful palette that transitioned from late Spring to late summer using loads of local beauty.

Her May bouquet was filled with ruffled peonies in white and pinks, ranunculus, and scabiosa. It was romantic, soft, and full of all the magic spring flowers bring to the party.

A little love for this slice of heaven, the misty mountains and incredible lilacs captured on their day before all the flower magic.

Their daughter carried a miniature bouquet and wore a little flower crown in pinks and white.

Stay tuned for their incredible parties in August and all the flowers to come!

A Secret Wedding in October

Bobbi & Max

Bobbi was a long-time Whirly Girl fan and attended several pop-ups and classes in the early years here in Sheridan. When she and Max decided to have a secret elopement in 2020 at their Wyoming ranch, Talking Waters, I was elated to make a simple bouquet and boutonniere for their moment together. She gave me full creative control, and I used some wild bittersweet vines, dried craspedia, and fresh roses for her bouquet.

Cassie Madden captured all the joy of the blustery day with their single witness and dear friend.

As I tell all my couples, your day is yours. Embrace it. Make it what you want it. Bobbi and Max embraced this, wearing outfits they pulled from their closets in the morning and got married in a place they loved with a friend to witness. No rules, just LOVE.

Congratulations!

The 100 Yard Bouquet

When Braidyn reached out about a last minute elopement styled-shoot in the Big Horn Mountains, I was excited to participate and jumped at the chance to test my ingenuity. I’ve found that floristry is 50% cleaning and planning, 40% problem solving and 10% making the beautiful things it seems. We didn’t have a flower budget for the shoot and so I proposed a wild and 100% foraged bouquet. Since they were adventuring into the National Forest, I had to consider what things I could include that would be weed-free and wouldn’t introduce non-native plants into the wild. I originally envisioned lots of tall grass heads and textural bits but these were excluded as a result of the location.

Everything in this bouquet was collected (with permission) from my block. Chokecherry, aspen, and spirea branches with perennial sweet pea tendrils, flowering linden, dried poppy pods and a few big iris seed heads.

Our team for the day included the following rockstars:

Photography - Braidyn Looper Photography

Makeup - Bonita Beauty Studio

Attire - Once Upon a Story

Models: Cheyenne and Titus

You can see more in the Northern Wyoming Regional Guide from Rocky Mountain Bride.

While this was a fun exercise for testing my design skills and creating something for an editorial setting, it’s not practical for an actual wedding. In most cases I can’t rely on my neighbors to provide all the goods for making something gorgeous and I use a variety of farms and wholesalers to bring in all the flower magic to pull off an event.
