Backyard Elegance From Red Ribbon Studio

And now, the second of Red Ribbon Studio’s elegant weddings …

Jessie and Chris were married in her parents backyard ~ at the local polo fields in Cummings, Iowa. A little bit country (as in a big red barn) and beaucoups of charm!

Love, love, love the mixture of flowers in the bouquets and centerpieces!!

This table setting may be one of my all time favorites. I LOVE the gentle and warm color palette of the flowers mixed with the whimsy of the pickled okra!

From Maribeth’s blog …

There were many homespun elements. Tables named for seasonal vegetables, pickled beans & beets that Jessie and her mom canned, homemade strawberry and pepper jelly … all for guests who dined under a white tent on a perfect autumn night.

So, you see, elegance is defined in many ways ~ casual or classic, inside or out ~ it’s simply ALL in the details!

Wedding coordination and florals by Saley at DiVine Flowers. Congratulations, Jessie & Chris on a lovely, lovely wedding!

   Thanks for featuring a beautiful Iowa wedding! Being from Iowa myself, I love to see that creative and beautiful things can happen in small town Iowa! Saley at Divine Flowers does a beautiful job! Love the recreation of the Grant Wood painting of American Gothic. My sister did the same thing for her wedding years ago in Cedar Rapids. I also love the bridesmaid dresses, where are they from!?

   I love that this is from Iowa, I am from there also. Are these tuxes from Men's Warehouse? They look like the one gray tux that Men's Warehouse offers, but am not sure, because they look much better in these pictures than they do on their website, please fill me in!! Thanks :)
