Rustic

We’re completely captivated by this stunning wedding, which seems to have it all – romance, perfect styling and gorgeous scenery.

Alexandra and Brian actually live in Venice, California but decided to plan a destination wedding in Austin, Texas. The stunning couple also chose to have a French Provence Countryside feel to their wedding, which we’re completely lusting over.

Here’s what we’re loving about their French Provence Countryside theme – the wildflowers, the barrels, the burlap grain sacks, the wood lanterns, the fresh lavender shades, the tablescapes, the fruit centerpieces, and the paper cones filled with flower seeds.

We also can’t help but love the adorable honorary flower girl and the story behind her significance. The couple originally met at a party in California, where Alexandra learned that Brian had a dog-named ‘Shea’. Alexandra wanted an excuse to see Brian again, so she offered to babysit ‘Shea’ on his next business trip. Brian accepted and the rest was history. So ‘Shea’ came to hold a very special place in their hearts, so much so, that ‘Shea’ was made honorary flower girl.

Congratulations Alexandra and Brian and thank you for sharing your vibrant wedding pictures with One Stylish Bride.

Tips, tricks, and bargains – these are a few of our favourite things, all of which this wedding has in abundance.

Ashley and Quinn wed on the picturesque rolling hills of Front Porch Farms located just outside of Nashville, Tennessee, United States.

Their exquisite wedding had a lovely southern vibe {with tasty home-cooked southern food} and was captured by Wedlock Images, who had this to say…

“Get inspired by Ashley’s ‘do-it-yourself’ attitude. From the centerpieces to the bouquet, this crafty bride is the perfect example of how to throw a fabulous themed and detailed wedding on a small budget. You’d be amazed at how much Ashley saved by not only making her centerpieces and bouquet, but also designing and making her bridesmaid’s dresses and having homemade cakes and sweet treats instead of the traditional wedding cake.”

We especially love that Ashley discovered her gem of a wedding dress at a charity trunk show with proceeds going towards breast cancer.

We also love that the charming wedding favors were jars of homemade jam especially made by Ashley’s sweet grandmother.

Congratulations to the adorable couple and thank you for sharing your wedding pictures with One Stylish Bride.

We’re so excited to share Cynthia and Matthew’s immensely gorgeous wedding pictures today, all the way from Alabama, United States.

Cynthia and Matthew held their wedding in Russellville on a residence that has been in Cynthia’s family for 7 generations. The couple exchanged vows on a bridge within the residence, which was made by the Roanoke Bridge Co. over 100 years ago.

This charming wedding was full of southern rustic flare and sunflowers. Cynthia explains, “I’ve always known that sunflowers would be a main part of my wedding ever since I was little. My mother has always grown them in our backyard.”

Handmade and original details surrounded the wedding. Cynthia explains, “My mother, cousins and I made the wish tree. The sunflowers were planted and grown by my parents. My mother cut all of the burlap table runners. My aunt and a close family friend made all the bouquets. The photo booth was set up by two of my best friends.

I looked at many magazines and DIY websites to compile ideas that I loved and put in some of my own to make it unique for Matt and I. Our focus was to make it memorable and fun. I found most of our stuff like paper and fabric, bottles, and the bunnies from Hobby Lobby. In the end I think what made it special to us was all the hard work we had put in together and all the hard work we had seen our friends and family put into it. It meant so much more to us because of that.”

Cynthia remarks, “The wish tree idea was not original. However, I think we made it unique in the end. My grandaddy cut branches from a pear tree and cemented them into a pot for us and we tied the fabric on. The moustache idea I had wanted to do since I was about 15 years old and I have seen it since then but we still wanted to do it. Matt and I used a laser cutter at MSU to cut them and Kayla and I glued each one on a stick. The seed packet idea was one that Mom, Matt, and I came up with together. I really loved the way it turned out. The sunflower seed packets tied it all together.”

Green Tree Photography was responsible for capturing all the gush-worthy moments.

Congratulations to the happy couple and thank you for sharing your charming wedding pictures with One Stylish Bride.
