DIY Field Wedding | Chehalis Wedding | Dance floor in the field!
October 4, 2012We had a great time photographing our last wedding of the summer season. I was super excited to have 2 fun, diy weddings for the end of the summer…full of fun details, hand made gorgeousness…did I mention fun? Plus…alot of fun. :)
We headed down I-5 to Chehalis….a town, that I thought I had never really been to….but as we followed google maps to our farm destination…we passed a sign for Thousand Trails…and alas…I have spent a few weeks hanging in the trees and at the Thousand Trails pool with the fam at the Crow Family Reunions! :) Anyway…its beautiful down there….lots of amazing barns in amazing fields and I think I decided I wanted to move there….out of the convergent zone that was being rained on when we left home.
I loved all the Ciara & Cody’s fun details. Some of my faves?:
1. A huge dance floor in the middle of a field, with little white lights around the top….they used this for the stage for the wedding…then it came into its full glory about 9pm when sun went down and the dancing started!
2. Um…The most amazing BBQ from Ranch House BBQ. yum-o!
3. The most orange and white paper lanterns that I have ever seen in a tent! It was gorgeous and just about blew my socks when I walked into the the tent!
4. I love a bride that wears a fabulous dress and cowgirl boots!
5. I loved all of the burlap details and table runners!
6. The cutest pinwheel background for the cutest desert table ! I kind want one of these for my house…in turquoise, of course!
7. The venue itself was a really cool working farm that was 275 acres! It was beyond huge and had the most incredible creek running through it. I wanted to jump over the rustic bridge and jump right into that water. I would love to have a creek on my property.
It was so cool to be in a huge field, with nothing else around, but a beautiful view and some Dave Matthews Music.
