{Real Wedding} $10K California ranch wedding

This wedding is a little different from what you're probably used to seeing on Wed4Less. We often have DIY and budget-friendly weddings, but they are usually still pretty traditional. Not this time.


Jessica and W.T. got married in Boonville, California on the groom's ranch, and the entire day reflected the couple's ranch lifestyle. The bridal party wore boots, the food was barbeque, and the guests walked away with horse shoe favors.


But we like to remind you that weddings don't have to be traditional to be beautiful, and the photos from this wedding, taken by Larsen's Photography, prove that.





♥ {DIYs} Favors | Arbor | Flowers | Food
From the bride:
We took 150 used horseshoes from W.T.'s father's horseshoeing business and cleaned them up and spray painted them. Our favors cost us a total of $50, including the paint, the custom tags I ordered from a local print shop, and the twine to tie the tags on.



♥ {Saves}  favors | flowers | table cloths | tents | set-up/tear-down crew

From the bride:
We utilized the local boy scout group for a small donation, as well as many local people who were not close friends to take care of many things during the wedding so we didn't have to worry.

From the bride:
From the day we met, we considered ourselves "lucky in love." We used that as our theme, bringing in horseshoes everywhere. We used horseshoes as favors, tablecloth weights (which didn't keep the 40 mph winds from taking out all the table decorations), to having them on my jewelry.
