WEDDING ATTIRE
The bride chose an elegant and classic ivory gown with a wide
one-shoulder, beaded strap accented with a large flower. A wide
ivory ribbon surrounded the skirt, repeating the narrower
ribbon on her veil that extended from the back of her hair.
Holding a bouquet of starburst lilies and pink roses, Michelle
walked up the aisle in handmade Pistolero purple and brown
cowboy boots while Steven "fought hard" to hold back tears at
the sight of his lovely bride.
The groom was totally at home in western garb. He wore
cowboy-high-style--a black Coppley cutaway jacket, white
cowboy hat and shiny black cowboy boots.
LET THEM (AND US) EAT CAKE!
No country celebration would be complete without delectable
sweets. A cookie bar, pies, and three separate wedding cakes
tempted taste buds. Three two-tier wedding cakes were covered
with a light blue fondant edged with copper ribbon. A bride and
groom riding a tractor were atop one cake.
Guests selected from cake flavours that included
strawberries and cream cake, banana cake with strawberry jam
and vanilla butter cream and chocolate cake with fudge butter
cream and caramel.
