Supporting a Cause for this Western Wedding

Creating a wedding that encompasses all of who you are isn’t just about the wedding day itself! It starts from the beginning of your planning journey! One way that Renata was able to make each step of the process meaningful to her was by supporting a cause as she looked to find her wedding dress. 

When shopping for her dress, she chose to shop at Brides for a Cause. This is a nonprofit organization that collects and resells wedding dresses to raise funds for a variety of women-focused charities. 

Renata was able to be a part of an organization that is near and dear to her. She also found the dress of her dreams! Her stunning gown helped bring her western wedding to life with a beautiful low back and lace details throughout.

Creating their Western-Bohemian Theme

Finding a theme that you and your partner can agree on can sometimes be the biggest hurdle to face during planning. Luckily for Renata and Eli, creating a fusion of their unique ideas for their western wedding was a no-brainer! 

Once it came to brainstorming ideas, Eli couldn’t resist dressing up like an old western cowboy getting to marry Renny, his outlaw partner in crime. Switching between a pair of colorful heels to white cowboy boots, Renny was able to bring a bit of rustic charm to her bohemian look throughout the course of their western wedding. 

Incorporating their Fur Babies

Being true to what matters most to you often includes creating special moments to share with the ones you love. When it came to curating their guest list, Renny and Eli couldn’t forget their most honored guests of all…their fur babies! As every true western cowboy knows, you can’t forget your trusty steeds.

From being a part of their western wedding portraits to participating in their first dance, their two beloved dogs were alongside them every step of the way.

Whether your wedding is intimate or grand, we’re experts at helping you find ways to include your furry companions in your timeline so you don’t have to miss out on an ounce of love! 

Come on, who wouldn’t want to look back at their wedding photos full of love and furry faces?!

A Private Family Moment on a Boat

When curating the timeline of events for your wedding day, it’s best to add in an intimate moment to unwind and enjoy the exciting overflow of emotions as newlyweds! This can be a short moment over your favorite drinks in a private room, a tucked away spot to sit down and gush over your ceremony together, or a separate cocktail hour with drinks and hors d’oeuvres for just the two of you to ensure you get a bite in before all the partying begins!

Renny and Eli wanted to unwind and soak in the start of their family journey as newlyweds. This meant getting on a private boat with their pups and their dinner! 

Doing something like this definitely earned multiple points in wedding must-dos! 

• Intimate moment together to enjoy one of the most special days of your life? Check!

• Having your dogs there on your adventure? Check!

• Getting to enjoy the delicious vegan catering at your wedding? Check!

• Putting together a fun adventure photo-op in the middle of your wedding day? Check!

Utilizing a trusted wedding planner helps to ensure your itinerary makes time for all the things that matter to you. From the traditional day-of events to moments as memorable as these, having a seasoned professional by your side is the secret weapon to scheduling the day of your dreams. 

Hava Nagila to Honor Tradition

Many times, couples are worried that by tying in their unique ideas for the wedding day, they will regret missing out on traditional moments. Well, we’re here to tell you that you can have both! Renny and Eli sure did in their western wedding.

Surrounded by their family and friends dancing and singing, they were lifted in chairs during the Jewish traditional celebratory song Hava Nagila! Later, Renny recounted the moment as indescribable. She was able to look up from the dance floor and see the colorful Chinese lanterns she’d chosen as decor to tie her love of all things rainbow into her bohemian vision. 

Staying true to yourself means creating the wedding day of your dreams that perfectly blends tradition and the things that make you, you! Renny and Eli were able to enjoy the western wedding of their dreams by adding in a bohemian flair and making time for what mattered to them. 

Mazel Tov!
