It finally arrived!! And the day was perfect.
All of the planning and preparing, all of the dreaming and anticipation, all of the Pinterest crafting and detail finalizing... and it was perfect. :)
Brianne was just about the coolest, most collected bride I've ever seen. She was calm and confident and gorgeous. She radiated happiness with her bridal glow.
The morning was spent in girly primp mode at the Buhro home.
Casey & I snuck outside to capture some wedding day details in and around the barns where the ceremony took place. I LOVE this sign. Such a great idea. And I love the rustic-cool look of everything. It's country but not cheesy. Beautiful but still keeping with the bride and groom's laid back personalities.
The guests entered the barn from this side.
The wedding guests sat on rows of straw bails topped with white sheets. Surprisingly comfortable - I tested them out! :)
This was the altar pre-florist arrival. Already gorgeous even before the flowers.
Brianne's late grandpa's tractor in the corner.
Ha! Love Uncle Jim's "shed" decor. ;)
The porch on the "shed"/barn.
More primping.
The adorable flower girl, up from her nap and having lunch before her big walk up the aisle.
My seester and me.
Our bridesmaid bouquets.
Baby girl and me.
Ceremony time.
This handsome little man rode up the aisle on a mini pedal tractor pulling a burlap and wood sign announcing "Here Comes the Bride".
Sadly, I don't have any pictures just of Bri in her amazing dress but she was stunning. And I couldn't help but tear up at her walk up the aisle with her dad.
Mr. & Mrs. Matt Perry.
Mya, Stella, Sophie & Will passed out wands with ribbons and tiny bells at the ends that the guests waved and rang when the bride and groom walked out. They took this job very seriously!
Sooooo appreciative of Craig and all his hard work handling everything with the kids these past couple weekends and during my conference. I haven't been very present lately and he's kept everything under control at home.
Hitching a ride on the back of the golf cart that was used to shuttle guests from their parking spots up and down the road to the farm.
Our attempt at recreating the Bridesmaids movie cover. LOL
The Buhro sibs and spouses.
Love this pic!
On the party bus en route to Tiffin for the reception.
Sophie trying to keep up with and mimic the line dancers at the wedding reception. She did pretty well!
Getting her little groove on with Adrianne & Lindsay.
There was a fancy-flavored popcorn bar at the reception with paper bags and scoops for the guests to take bags for snacking. Will was all over that...
Dad & mom.
Uncle Z and Will. Love Will's smile. Zach's... not so much. ;)
Mr. & Mrs. Rethman - just a couple months past their seventh wedding anniversary.
Many of the wedding guests and all of the wedding party stayed in the hotel next door to the reception hall and joined the newlyweds for gift opening the next morning.
Such a great couple, great family and great weekend. It was an honor to be a part of this beautiful celebration.
