Oh, rustic glam. Two words that I always love to hear together. For this country boy and this sparkle-loving gal, that was the ideal vibe for their beautiful barn bash. All the details they created from the chalkboard painted mason jars to the mercury glass centerpieces perfectly bring their theme to life and the results are exquisite. Lucky for this couple, the bride’s cousin happens to be an incredible photographer, Brooke Boling Photography, and she captured all the lovely details. See all the pretty in the full gallery!

From the Bride…Our wedding day was everything I could dream of, it was perfect. We had the most amazing family and friends who helped us make our dream day come true! Dan proposed to me in the end of February, and me being the crazy girl that I am decided we could plan a wedding by September! It definitely can be done and was all worth it but at times it was a bit stressful to say the least. To make things even more difficult, Dan and I live in Denver but wanted our wedding in our hometown, Spokane, WA. But mom to the rescue! My mom was able to tour venues for me, meet with Tana Rekofke, our caterer, gather vases, mason jars, and just about everything we had at the wedding was collected by her!
We decided to go with On River’s Edge, a barn north of Spokane because instantly when touring the site we all saw the vision, Rustic Elegance. Dan and I love the outdoors; he is a little country and I love everything sparkly, so it seemed like a match made in heaven. We had to bring just about everything in to make it unique and Dan even wired and hung the chandeliers himself. The wedding was very DIY, and we made the burlap table runners, Dan’s mom put the chalkboard contact paper on ALL of the mason jars, my aunts put together all of the centerpieces, other aunts made the mini-pies (because Dan loves pie), family friends made the signs, and everyone really came together to pull off this event. We could not have been more fortunate to have so many people that love us help with this special time.
My friend and bridesmaid, Andrea Leslie, happens to be a wedding planner and from the second she landed in Spokane, she was our go to girl! She helped set-up, ran the rehearsal, and made sure the day-of went smoothly, talk about a God-send! Another amazing detail was our amazing photographer, Brooke Boling from Nashville, who happens to be my cousin. She brought her second shooter, Kelli Trontel, and the two of them were able to capture all of our amazing moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I felt so much love on our wedding day and it will be a day I will never forget, and although doing everything ourselves was a lot more work, I think it made it all the more special because literally everything there was done with love.

really cute guest book idea
Love the "I Do / We Did" signs!
Where are those bridesmaids dresses from? I LOVE that color!
Love how you capture so much much meaning in every exquisite photo.........LOVE Grandma's Jam......
I believe the bridemaids dresses are J.Crew http://www.jcrew.com/wedding.jsp
I have been in the catering business for many years. I have worked at banquet facilities that have put together some great weddings. Never before have I seen such memorable pictures taken. Though I was not at the Spokane wedding, I felt that I was, Ms. Boling made me feel as though I was simply by capturing the essence of the moment(s). I feel that I know so much about Alyssa and Dan, just from the WAY the pictures were taken. I am helping a dear friend plan a wedding for the first time this coming summer and this gallery has given me so many wonderful ideas.
Does anyone know the color of the JCrew bridesmaid dresses? My friend is looking for something close to that but it's difficult to tell from the website what the colors look like in real life.
Thanks!
What a lovely presentation. The depiction of the entire day photographically is truly extraordinary. I was in attendance and still am overwhelmed at how much emotion is released just reviewing the photos.
A truly great application of the available resources. The photographer certainly captured the uniqueness
of the setting and decor. "Mom" surely had an idea of what she wished to get done for Alyssa.
WONDERFUL PICTURES!!!! You captured the perfect moments! You have always been one of my favorite photographers.
Made me want to get married again!!!!
The bridesmaids dresses are J Crew and the color is spiced wine! I am honored to be on Style Me Pretty, it is my absolute favorite wedding blog and I looked at it everyday when I was planning! I am so fortunate to have had Brooke and Kelli capture the day so I can relive it over and over again! Best photographers EVER!
