A few hours before her wedding rehearsal, Maricela ran up the sidewalk to our front door, excited to pick up some last minute bridal prints. Before leaving, she just smiled and said, "Things are crazy, but it's all good - I'm getting married tomorrow!" That same excitement held true the next day, as guests streamed into the barn beneath brightly colored umbrellas. The hayloft doors were open a bit, allowing a cool breeze through, along with the sweet smell of rain.
The hayloft was beautifully adorned with flowers and greenery. (It was probably the best it's ever looked!) :)
From wooden flower boxes to the bench crafted to be signed as a guestbook, we enjoyed seeing Boog's touches on the wedding day. (Not to mention, he smoked the meat for the reception... and it was delicious!)
Also, we found that Boog's boutonnière is a new favorite of ours - painting a shotgun shell gold was an ingenious way to make it uniquely suited for the groom and his groomsmen. However, the most special touch was the addition of his grandfather's wedding ring.
Zayne performed his grown-up role as sign holder with excellence... but he's still his mama's baby. :)
All of our barn weddings in Texas have taken place in non-working barns, which was not the case for Kentucky weddings! :) So when we discovered that for Boog & Maricela's ceremony, you could pet a donkey, a horse, and a cat on your way up to the hayloft... we felt right at home.
"... Love always protects,
always trusts, always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never fails."
- 1 Corinthians 13:7-8
With the rain came a few changes in plans for the reception, but you'd never know it! The shop next to the barn was literally transformed - becoming a gorgeous, intimate reception.
Boog & Maricela, you two have been a joy to be around. Thank you for letting us celebrate with you. We pray the Lord's blessing on your marriage! Oh, and Zayne - we think you're swell! :)
Jill & Kay
