If fabulous fell in love with rustic and they had a love child it would be this wedding shot by Marianne Wilson Photography. This perfectly gorgeous mix of top buns and cowboy boots, baby’s breath and glammed up necklaces, lawn games and sparkly boleros. It’s one of those weddings that throws all rules out the door and blends chic details and rustic sensibilities without skipping a single beat. Needless to say, we are smitten kittens for this love fest and we have a whole gallery that awaits for afternoon perusing so hop to it!

From the Bride …Will and I wanted a wedding that was US. We wanted it to be fun for not only us, but for our very special family and friends. From the time we got engaged, Will gave me the authority to have complete control over the planning process. I wanted a vintage theme with a rustic, country flair. From the game corn hole, to our candy cart, to the fire pit and hay bales, our special day was about gathering our friends and family for a party to celebrate the next step in mine and Will’s lives.
The days and months leading up to the wedding were filled with trips to the LA Flower Mart, the Rose Bowl Swap Meet and scavenging through my grandmother’s attics for treasures that would add to the antiqued, welcoming feel. Classes were taken so my Uncle Pat could officiate our special day, as it was important to us that our officiant had been a big part of our relationship and our lives together. Craft day with my bridesmaids consisted of creating party favors (lottery tickets with lucky pennies), programs (fans that thanked guests for coming, thanked our parents and our amazing wedding party, and gave peace and love to those joining us in spirit), sewing bow ties and putting together our center pieces.
The Thursday before the wedding, my mom and I journeyed down to the LA Flower Mart. We went down there with not much in mind and came home with an array of cream and white wild flowers, as well as the most amazing, in-season peonies! (Please note: the wedding was in June to correlate with “peony season.”) My bouquet of peonies was wrapped in rustic burlap and tied with a locket that held a photo of my grandfather that passed away.
Complete with cowboy boots and home cooked BBQ food, a little rain just added to the intimacy of our special day. We strung photos of all of our wedding guests to complete the view that overlooked surrounding fields.

Beautiful! I love the use of baby's breath! Any chance you know where is the bride's gold cover-up/jacket is from?
This question is for the bride, I am doing the window seating assignment thing for my wedding in September. How did you get yours to look so neat? btw, your wedding was beautiful! love all your little touches :)
Just lovely!!!! The details are so perfect!!!!
This is amazing! Love everything!
Hi. I love this wedding. Very rustic chic! I also wanted to know where the brides sequined cover up is from? Any ideas?
Love the sequin jacket!!! Who makes it??
This whole wedding is FABULOUS. So pretty! Beautiful images of what looks like a perfect, happy day.
This wedding is soo pretty. I love the brides necklaces, how long ago did you get them, they look stunning and I'd love to find them..
Thanks everyone for the sweet comments! My sequin jacket was actually borrowed from a friend- she got it at Forever21! For the window seating chart... create a template on the computer and tape it to the back side of the window so you can see it from the front. Then trace away! :)
The cowboy boots are the perfect touch!

Ashley dont forget to send some info on the jewlery.. I don't see those pieces online.. booo
Hi Ashley.......where did you get those flower boxes? I'm getting married in Camarillo next year know my way around Southern Califonia. I'm having a lot of similar elements as you. In fact, my mom Rosa works at the same place as your mom, she may have told you about me and our interest in renting some of your items.
Beautiful Wedding!! I too would love to know more about the jewellery! Also, is the stamp on the brown paper bags your own creation?
I would love to know where the bride got all of that fabulous mercury glass! I am getting married in January and we are using mercury glass on all the tables..but I am having a hard time finding it! Thanks!
what a fun couple! love the bride's and bridesmaids' boots and the groom's sneakers! so cute! the seating chart on the window panes is so unique! and the stationery is beautiful!
Carly & Anne: The rhinestone necklaces are from Ann Taylor, but I did get them a while ago. The single strand of pearls is from J Crew and I just twisted it around.
Anne: I actually just got the stamps from Michael's Craft Store! But Etsy has some great ones too!
Lisette: The boxes are from the LA Flower Mart (downtown) at a place called Floral Syndicate. You are more than welcome to use them too! I have PLENTY!
Stephanie: Collect your mercury glass during the holidays! It'll be everywhere! I got a majority of mine between November and January... and all pretty inexpensive! (99cents - $12 for the large ones). Are you in Southern California by any chance?
Your wedding is gorgeous! I'd love to know where you got your dressing gown from... :)
Love everything about this. Well done. Beautiful photos.
Fantstic styling - I love the seating plan! The day looked beautiful :)

How cool are the cowboy boots!
Hi Ashley,
I'm getting married at Maravilla Gardens this June and am using a ton of the elements you used. I noticed you said you collected your Mercury Glass during the holidays - but where? If you're in the LA area I would absolutely LOVE to purchase or rent anything you'd be willing to dole out. My email is shadesovgray@gmail.com if you're interested. Thanks so much!
