F ROM THE PUB LISHERS

A REFLECTION ON 10 AMAZING YEARS Over a decade ago, Kami and I walked nervously into B.C. Clark Jewelers downtown store to share the idea of an Oklahoma wedding magazine.

Thankfully, those doors were opened for us through a mutual friend who had set up the meeting, and we felt fortunate to get B.C. Clark’s ear for half an hour or so before they agreed to hear more about our magazine concept at a formal meeting with their agency. Their agency?!? Our hearts raced and we were overwhelmed with nerves! Completely unfamiliar with the agency world and how decision-making for the jeweler would work, we knew then that this would be a pivotal point in the life of the magazine that was yet to be born.

We prepared intensely for the meeting and after our presentation and Q&A around what felt like a larger than life, long glass table, we left with a feeling of promise that we just might win the support of this 100-year old jeweler (and their agency advisors)! Follow up questions ensued over the next several weeks, and we’d soon receive exciting news that B.C. Clark Jewelers was in fact all in and would be one of the firsts to make a substantial investment in Brides of Oklahoma.

Yet again through a connection, we scored a meeting with legendary Oklahoma wedding planner, Judy Lehmbeck, who graciously treated us to a cocktail at the prestigious Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club. And again, we walked nervously into the clubhouse and were directed to a private table Judy had reserved. We were greeted by her charming smile and a great big hug! We knew we needed her support (and many others like her) if this magazine were to get off the ground and gain any traction. Judy was the kindest and most welcoming person, and we knew instantly that we’d have a relationship with this iconic woman for years to come. Securing her support was yet another celebrated victory!

Doors were opened again and again, as we met with countless other amazing vendors across the entire state over the course of this “project” getting underway – each giving us a little more confidence that our dream could actually come to life. Jane Kelly of J.J. Kelly Bridal Salon welcomed us inside her store, jumped on board and began dreaming with us about fashions to feature in the inaugural issue. The stunning Anne-Marie Foy of The French Bouquet sat down with us in her gorgeous home-based studio to learn more and instantly became a believer in the vision. Valerie Naifeh of Naifeh Fine Jewelry became a dear friend and business confidant – a mentor so to speak – who we’d begin to visit with over cocktails on repeat occasion and listen attentively to her advice and encouraging words.

While you’re certainly responsible for paving your own path, we absolutely know that we couldn’t have made Brides of Oklahoma a reality without the support of so many believers from the beginning. True believers that despite us not having a magazine to show or an ounce of publishing experience, all still understood the mission and the desperate need that this magazine would fill in the marketplace.

As we reflect on 10 years, we’re incredibly grateful for our start and all of the people today that are the driving force behind Brides of Oklahoma. It’s truly a labor of love of hundreds of vendors that not only invest with their dollars that fuel our mission but who also pour their creative talents, time and energy into making every page of this incredible resource! And, it wouldn’t be possible to share the breadth of inspiration we offer without the hundreds of couples who have shared the most meaningful day of their lives with us by commemorating their wedding with Brides of Oklahoma.

Immense thanks are in order and this issue – our single and largest EVER – pays special tribute to the entire Oklahoma wedding community that to this day make Brides of Oklahoma thrive!

Cheers to a fantastic decade!

meaningful surprise engagement.

Since Colton had a few years left of nursing school, Peyton was expecting a proposal in the relaxing summer months. When her friends showed up at her father’s office around Christmastime while the staff was having a meeting, Peyton thought something was off. To her slight dismay, Peyton’s friends informed her that Colton wasn’t proposing, but rather sending her on a day of pampering for an early Christmas present.

She shook off the anticipation of a proposal and soaked in a wonderful day that Colton had planned to the minute.

The girls were driven around town on a vintage party bus, which was a comical sight, and their first stop was to get their nails done. After this, they traveled to get Peyton a new outfit and then enjoyed lunch. When the sun was setting, the bus took the group to Hafer Park, one of Peyton and Colton’s favorite spots, where she noticed something out of the ordinary – a pavilion in the park was glittering with Christmas lights.

As Peyton stepped out of the bus and walked toward Colton along an illuminated path, a feeling of nervous excitement overcame him. Dangling from a Christmas tree was a very special ornament – a ring box. To this day, Colton can’t remember what he said, but he remembered getting down on one knee and Peyton accepting his proposal with an emphatic yes.

Over the next year and a half, Peyton enlisted the help of her interior designer mother to help coordinate the wedding of her dreams. The pair was confident they could creatively make Peyton’s vision come to life.

After selecting a June date at the stunning Southwind Hills, all other aspects of the planning fell into place.

One crucial part of the planning was selecting the perfect wedding dress. Peyton wanted a frock with sleeves, which was a challenge to find for a summer wedding. Luckily, she found the perfect dress at Bella Rose Bridal – the only thing was, it was missing the sleeves! Months later, Linh’s Bridal & Alterations was able to create the perfect delicate lace sleeves to complement her Allure dress.

On the morning of June 18, 2016, Peyton and Colton were feeling a little nervous but mainly excited for the day to come. Colton was looking forward to spending the day with his groomsmen relaxing with a favorite pastime – Nintendo 64.

Most of all, he couldn’t wait to see Peyton in her wedding dress. Peyton and her maids started their day with coffee and enjoyed spending time with one another.

meeting we had. It was so special to spend that time with her and make all of those memories,” Lauren says.

One of the most fun tasks for any bride to be is, of course, shopping for her perfect wedding dress.

The shopping experience was a whole weekend of excitement as it coincided with the OU/Texas game in Dallas. From the moment Lauren tried on her Oscar de la Renta gown, she fell in love. It was the one dress she couldn’t stop thinking about. She loved the detail work and the side piece that wrapped around the back of the gown. Best of all, it had a personalized tag she had sewn in from her mom that said, “I’ve got your back.” “It reinforced how special the planning year was to both of us and how close we are,” Lauren said.

In late August 2016, anticipation filled the air.

Lauren and Rich put the finishing touches on their beautiful wedding, and out of town guests arrived for the big day. The rehearsal dinner was a warm and casual evening at Vito’s in Oklahoma City, where memories were shared over delicious Italian food in the cozy restaurant the couple had shared so many meals before. The day of the wedding, Lauren got ready at her parents’ house with her bridesmaids. Over mimosas and sushi, the ladies got their hair and makeup done.

Meanwhile, Rich and his groomsmen had lunch at Republic on the Classen Curve. It was a relaxing time spent with friends and family before everyone arrived at the church for the 6:00 ceremony.

Lauren and Rich wanted the first moment they saw each other to be when she walked down the aisle.

“I think the bride coming through the door, and the groom seeing her in that dress on that day for the first time is a beautiful moment. I wanted us to have that moment and to share it with all of our guests.”

When that moment came, it was everything the couple thought it would be. Lauren was anxious, but when the crack of the doors sounded, and she could see Rich, her nerves melted away. “I will never forget his face at that very moment,” Lauren said. “It took everything I had not to tear up watching her come down the aisle, and it seemed like it took forever for her to get to the altar,” Rich remembers. 300 friends and family were in attendance for the ceremony at Nichols Hills United Methodist Church. The sanctuary was stunning with red and pink flowers that popped against the light-colored walls and white pews.

The décor was vibrant but soft at the same time with orchids cascading over the back doors. The couple exchanged vows and rings in the traditional ceremony surrounded by the people who had shaped both of their lives. “Being in a room with all of the people who have loved and supported you is overwhelmingly special,” Lauren says.

memorial above the WWI museum in Kansas City. They were chatting in a large lookout area on top of the memorial that looks over the train station and has a beautiful view of downtown. “I was pretty nervous walking up because I wasn’t completely sure what I was going to say when I asked Senushi to marry me, and I wanted to make sure the photographer was in a good position to take pictures,” Ryan remembers. They talked for a while, and then the big moment happened.

Ryan got down on bended knee and asked Senushi to spend the rest of her life with him. “It was truly the happiest moment of my life. Ryan is the best guy I know, and to hear this man tell me he wanted to spend his life with ME was seriously the most amazing thing I've ever heard,” Senushi says.

When it came to planning the wedding, Senushi and Ryan wanted to ensure their guests would have a great time. That meant focusing on finding the right band and caterer. They found themselves in a unique situation as far as a timeline for the wedding because of their careers. They were actually engaged for four years before tying the knot! It made the first couple of years difficult to plan much, although they had plenty of time to do research. They visited multiple venues in Kansas City, Tulsa, and Oklahoma City, and ultimately decided on the Tulsa Garden Center. They loved its natural beauty but also loved the owners’ flexibility about letting them choose their caterer and getting their own licensed bartender. They were also able to achieve their dream wedding on a budget. “If you do your research, you can host a beautiful and unforgettable wedding within budget,” Senushi says. She was able to splurge on some local vendors and balanced it with deals she found online.

On May 28, 2016, two hundred friends and family members from all over the world settled into the Holy Family Cathedral in Tulsa to watch Senushi and Ryan unite in marriage. The bride looked stunning in an Essence of Australia gown with a low back, fitted silhouette and intricate beading. Escorted down the aisle by her father, the bride couldn’t hold her emotions inside, especially when she saw her dad tear up. “I was smiling all the way down the aisle but the tears just would not stop. Seeing Ryan at the end of the aisle so happy to see me did not make the tears stop! So many emotions and so much happiness!

My heart couldn't contain it all, so it just came out my eyes,” Senushi says.

The ceremony was truly a blending of faiths and cultures. They had both a Catholic priest and a Sri Lankan wedding celebrant perform the ceremony.

to life. “As everyone says, invitations set the tone for the wedding,” Olivia says. She poured through hundreds of invitation samples and finally decided on a style. With some help from her wedding coordinator, Stephyn Spears from Southern Charm Events, they picked the classic ivory invitations trimmed with lace. The first two sentences of the invitation described the pair perfectly: “This day I will marry my best friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, and love.”

On August 13, 2016, loved ones from all over the country gathered in Northwest Oklahoma City to witness the union of Olivia Holman and Brandon Mitchell. Gaillardia Country Club was so beautiful with its perfectly manicured green lawns and classic décor the couple had chosen. “I just fell in love with the marsala color! It was the 2015 pantone color of the year, and I knew that it would set the tone for a nice evening wedding as the sun set,” Olivia says.

Marsala appeared in multiple ways from the groom and groomsmen’s tuxedos to pops of color in the floral arrangements.

The wedding was full of tradition. The couple decided to incorporate the “wine box” ritual, writing heartfelt letters to each other before the ceremony.

They sealed the letters and locked them in a box with a bottle of wine. They won’t open the box until after their first anniversary to reminisce on their journey together.

“Like a good wine, a great love will deepen and mature with age,” the couple says. The bride’s father walked her down the aisle in the outdoor ceremony. The bride wore an elegant sweetheart strapless ivory gown with jewel details. It originally had a corset back, but Olivia changed it to a zipper a few months before the wedding. She completed the look with a flowing tulle veil fastened to her swept-up hair. Waiting at the altar was her soon-to-be husband, bridesmaids dressed in elegant floor-length, one-shoulder black gowns by Vera Wang, and the groomsmen in marsala and black tuxedos with bow ties.

While the wedding was formal and classic, there was also a lighthearted feel in the air as the two little flower girls pranced down the aisle in their custom made white gowns. Brandon even gave them cherry flavored ring pops once they made it down the aisle. Those ring pops kept them quiet, too, entertaining the crowd as they indulged in the sugary candy during the ceremony. Smiles were on everyone’s faces as the couple exchanged rings and traditional vows. It was incredibly special to have Olivia’s childhood pastor officiate the ceremony. Once he pronounced them husband and wife, Brandon kissed his gorgeous bride, and they led the way inside to the reception.

discovered my passion for baking and decorating at a young

age. Over the years, I have been very fortunate to have worked with some amazing bakers and decorators. I enjoy teaching and sharing my love for creating cakes. In 2005, I started Amy Cakes with the encouragement of a friend and neighbor. I often pinch myself, thinking “I am living my dream career!” – 26 years and it is still my love. To me and my team, it’s not “just cake” – it’s memories, milestones and edible art.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOUR BAKER N O T O N LY U N D E R S TAN D S B U T R E AL LY S E E S T H E VISION YOU HAVE FOR YOUR WEDDING NO MATTER HOW GRAND OR HUMBLE IT MIGHT BE.

y little cake shop is what I like to call a bakery boutique. It’s

quaint, and everything— from the shopping for ingredients to setting up the wedding cake at the reception— is done by me. Everything is custom made and though I do have various cupcakes and other treats available for drop-in service, I do not have cakes made up in advance. Those have to be special ordered. My product/cake is an extension of me and who I am. I want my clients to have what they want. When a bride wants something special, something that has been given thought and care and baked in the flavor and filling they love, then I’m the baker they are looking for.

look at cake as an opportunity to showcase flavors! When I

design cake flavors, I put a massive amount of time into creating and perfecting the flavor profiles of each cake. I would like to think I create cake for foodies...people who care about the way the cake tastes just as much as they care about the way the cake looks! Building a one-on-one relationship with clients is integral for weddings. When clients decide to book their wedding day with me, they essentially book me for the entire week of their wedding. I don’t ever overbook weddings or offer consultations on weekends simply for this reason.

verything I make is made from scratch and I spend a lot of time

on the baking process to create the most flavorful pastries with realistic, non-artificial ingredients. I love the quality and texture that using real butter, unbleached and organic ingredients add to my pastries without making them exactly “healthy” or fat free. I keep my design and decorating process minimal so they are classic and elegant for any event or party theme. I believe food brings people together and in my biased opinion, should be the life of the party.

You can’t go wrong having a food-focused reception; it keeps everyone entertained and sets the mood.

IT IS SO FITTING IN THAT EACH COUPLE HAS A PERSONAL STORY AND DESERVES THE BEST, O N E - O N - O N E E X P E R I E N C E .

I FEEL SO HONORED TO BE APART OF THE SWEET ENDING TO THEIR DAY.

y name is Mishelle and I have loved designing wedding cakes

for the past 16 years. I work one on one with my brides and together we share ideas and create your vision of the cake. In designing, we can stay with the overall style of your wedding or embellish the cake with an aspect from your gown. Bring your ideas and we will create your confection to detail. I believe you must have quality on every level. I love the creative process of getting to know a couple and bring their personalities into the cake design, creating a fun memory along the way.

From the perfect gown to the impeccable hairstyle, a wedding is your time to shine. For more than 13 years, aesthetic nurse Natausha Spears has been helping women in Oklahoma City look their most beautiful and bright with her expertise in the cosmetic industry. After working in the clinic setting for a few years, Spears opted to open her own practice focusing on what matters most to her – injections.

When Injectable Aesthetics opened its doors, it became one of Oklahoma’s only cosmetic offices that provides Botox and dermal filler exclusively. By concentrating on strictly injections, Spears’ practice is able to stay on top of the current trends to offer their clients procedures that are effective and flawless.

rothers Glenn and Tim Lewis started Lewis Jewelers in 1976 and have made thousands of engagement

and wedding rings since then. Today, they feature the largest selection of these rings in Oklahoma.

They have the ability to custom make almost any style of ring in their own factory using 3D printing technology. Lewis Jewelers was invited to be the very first retail partner to offer Black Label Forevermark Diamonds. Only the top one percent of all diamonds can be a Forevermark, and Black Label diamonds represent the top one percent of all Forevermark Diamonds.

“Lewis Jewelers is looking to establish a relationship with you, rather than simply selling you a ring.”

ou’ve fantasized about “the ring” since long before you ever met your beau. We know, because we did it too. And we also know that it needs to be “totally you” and “totally perfect.” Thank goodness for BC Clark Jewelers. Their team feels the exact same way.

In fact, their commitment to find the best diamond engagement rings for their brides goes back 124 years, and it goes beyond just stocking their sparkling counters with world-class stones. The settings, the brands and the jewelry designers themselves all must have something extra special too. Run of the mill just won’t do.

BC Clark’s passion for connecting customers with designers of only a certain caliber is what led them to start carrying one-of-a-kind pieces by Megan Thorne, a Fort Worth-based jewelry designer with Oklahoma ties. BC Clark is the exclusive place to find her gorgeous work in Oklahoma. We caught up with the young talent to see for ourselves just what BC Clark and its brides have been gushing about.

It was immediately obvious that Oklahoma’s oldest jewelry retailer had stumbled upon quite the hidden gem.

I believe strongly in the concept of ‘modern heirlooms,’ which is the idea that the ring you are creating now should be passed on to your loved ones later.

I wear my own great-grandmother’s engagement ring and wedding band, and I can think of no higher honor than sharing in another family’s special moments. Thus, I am always mindful of distinctive, yet timeless design and quality craftsmanship, so that a ring can be treasured for generations to come.

Honestly, because it is an option, so why in the world not?! I think that is one of the most amazing characteristics of precious metals: you can strip away the alloys used to create a piece of jewelry and return the metal to its pure state… It costs a little more, and your options are a bit limited, but I think it is so important to do what we can.

THE BC CLARK STAFF TRULY UNDERSTANDS THE COLLECTION AND CAN GUIDE BRIDES THROUGH THE SOMETIMES DAUNTING JOURNEY OF DESIGN, CUSTOMIZATION AND DIAMOND EDUCATION.

They’re made with joy. In the beginning, I made every single piece start to finish in my garage. Now that the company has grown a bit, I’m not able to be involved in every facet of the process, but I insist that I’m able to touch every piece before it leaves our studio. I love what I do and am the luckiest person ever to be a tiny part of a couple’s special moment. I hope the joy and fulfillment I receive as the maker is felt by the one who wears our work.

Q

WH AT D O Y OU M OS T WA N T BRID ES T O KN OW A BOU T Y OU R R IN G S ?

I couldn’t authentically talk about passing down a ring to a daughter or grand-daughter and not be cognizant of the world we are leaving for her. Even small choices have amazing impact when combined with the collective efforts of the industry.

Q

WHY IS IT A PRIORITY FOR YOU TO USE ETHICALLY SOURCED STONES?

“I’m from Texas, but I actually studied apparel design at Oklahoma State University! It was there that I took my first metalsmithing class as an elective—just for fun. Working with BC Clark feels like a full-circle moment for me, a true homecoming! Such a prestigious store with a shared love of family and community. The BC Clark staff truly understands the collection and can guide brides through the sometimes daunting journey of design, customization and diamond education.”

Location, Location, Location! What holds true in real estate certainly fits the bill when it comes to weddings. We understand that selecting a venue is hard, but figuring out your options should be easy! We scoured the state of Oklahoma searching for the most desirable wedding, reception and rehearsal dinner venues and were amazed at what we discovered! From beautiful ballrooms, country clubs and mansions to fancy gardens, a rustic barn and even an urban loft space, we’ve paid them all a visit in order to deliver you the facts about their facility to help you make that all-important location decision a little easier!

This secluded, authentic Amish-built, hand-hewn timber framed barn originally constructed in the state of Indiana in the mid 1800’s is the ideal spot for your next special event. The 2,800 square-foot gem is one of the most unique wedding and event venues in the state. It was reconstructed just minutes east of Edmond, Oklahoma on a private ranch and nestled into the surrounding topography with no other visible structures in sight. No detail was spared in the meticulous landscaping which features acres of open spaced Bermuda and shaded fescue lawn, custom landscape lighting and a stone waterfall. The double barn doors open to the dramatic landscape and ponds, transforming the barn into a one-of-a-kind, indoor-outdoor experience! The Barn at 4T Farms is like entering into another time, and allows guests to reconnect with each other and with nature.

to tell Maggie as soon as he saw her, and that was the first thing he said to her in addition to how beautiful she looked!

The ceremony took place at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, which was festive with Christmas décor. After the ceremony, the couple invited guests to join them at the Petroleum Club for an evening of dinner, drinks and dancing. The reception was a big party, which is exactly what the couple wanted. Everyone enjoyed the sorority song and fraternity chant, and Souled Out kept the dance floor busy all night. After the final song, the newlyweds had a grand exit with glow sticks.

The entire wedding was truly a dream for Maggie and Colt.

Maggie and Colt met their senior year of college at the University of Oklahoma. They were set up to go to a date party together and have been together ever since! After a few years of dating, Colt proposed in Downtown Oklahoma City before Maggie started back to law school. The excited couple decided on a winter wedding and set the date for December 19, 2015.

The planning process was busy but fun. Colt enjoyed a bachelor weekend in Austin, while Maggie and her girls had a fun weekend in Las Vegas. Before they knew it, the big day had arrived! They got married on an unseasonably warm day in December and the weather was perfect. Before the first look, Kobe Bryant walked by Colt at The Skirvin Hilton while he was waiting on his bride. Colt could not wait -A77-

After the intimate ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and dinner catered by Abbey Road Catering. Guests danced the night away to a live band while overlooking the downtown Oklahoma City skyline from the Civic Center’s Meinders Hall of Mirrors.

A grand exit filled with oversized illuminated balloons and glow sticks saw the couple off to spend their dream honeymoon in Florence, Italy and Zermatt, Switzerland. Following their twoweek newlywed adventure, they settled into their life together in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

Outfitted in the tackiest of Christmas sweaters, Alyssa and Kyle met at a party during their sophomore year at Oklahoma State University. Alyssa was immediately taken by Kyle’s carefree smile, outgoing personality and the flashy tinsel on his sweater. Alyssa, being a bit more reserved than Kyle, kept her feelings hidden from everyone but her sorority sisters as the “secret crush” became a longstanding joke among friends. Upon graduation, they both moved to the Tulsa area where their paths crossed again. The “secret crush” became not so secret when Kyle asked Alyssa out for their first date.

Following a four-year courtship, Kyle surprised Alyssa at her family’s lake house with a stunning round-cut solitaire engagement ring, asking her to spend the rest of her life with him.

On March 5, 2016, Alyssa Marie Nelson married Kyle Brian Venamon at Nichols Hills United Methodist Church in Nichols Hills. The bride’s father escorted his only daughter down the -A63-

reception at the Farmers Public Market.

Complete with glow sticks, Stillwater’s famous Limey drinks, Pistol Pete and a breathtaking seven-tier cake by Amy Cakes, the evening was full of love, laughter and fun surprises for the guests.

The bride and groom also incorporated sentimental Cowboy traditions into their celebration by having a table displaying their sorority and fraternity pins as well as white carnations and pink roses. Overall, the evening was full of sweet personal touches, including calligraphy from Sooner Calligraphy and signage by Sizelove Design, celebrating the happy couple amidst the festive mood created by Leslie Herring Events and M&M Productions.

After a truly memorable day, the newlyweds traveled to New Zealand for their dream honeymoon.

Looking back, Jacy and Josh are both surprised they met their soul mate during the first week of college at Oklahoma State University.

They had been randomly paired together for a Coke Date, a Greek Life tradition at OSU for freshman students. By the beginning of their junior year, the couple was inseparable. After a few years of dating, Josh surprised Jacy one spring day as he got down on one knee in the middle of a wheat field at his family’s farm to ask Jacy to be his forever.

Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Thomas Lippoldt said, “I do,” April 16, 2016, at The Chapel at Crossings Community Church. The bride, escorted by her father, was stunning in her timeless A-line Romona Keveza wedding gown. Her gown featured delicate lace cap sleeves with a unique removable tulle skirt that revealed beautiful point d’esprit lace. The gown was the perfect fit for the couple’s fun and celebratory

walking back to their seats with a foul ball. She had no idea he would be her eventual husband, and that ball would sit on a shelf in the home they would build together.

Jeff knew without a doubt during his first semester at OSU that he was going to marry Alicia. Four years later, he began prepping for his proposal, tentatively a year in advance. On a beachfront blanket at Lake Eufaula, with a sunset painting the canvas of the water that July night, an eight-year courtship came to a close. Alicia said yes to her high school sweetheart, and they were engaged!

The couple’s plans came to fruition February 18, 2017, when they enjoyed the wedding of their dreams. They currently live in Oklahoma City with two puppies and couldn’t be happier.

“If when I die, I’ve nothing but her love, remember me a wealthy man.”

At a Miss America watch party in January 2007, Jeff Smith met Alicia Clifton in his mother’s kitchen. They exchanged pleasantries and saw each other more and more in the weeks to come. Jeff ’s sister was the reigning Miss Oklahoma City University (OCU) and Alicia was Miss OCU’s Outstanding Teen.

Normally, Alicia and Jeff would have been too intimidated to talk to one another. Alicia thought Jeff was much older, and Jeff thought she was out of his league. These ideas facilitated the development of a strong friendship.

Alicia and Jeff went on their first date to an Oklahoma State University baseball game. Jeff had turned 16 the year prior, which meant the date was chaperoned by his father. Concessions, anthems and jeering at the umpires made for an exceptional time. Alicia will always remember Jeff nonchalantly putting his arm around her

Both the bride and groom’s cakes were from Ludger’s Bavarian Cakery. The bride’s cake was a four-tier, alternating ruffle design. It was vanilla Bavarian cheesecake with cream cheese filling and iced with a fresh whipped topping. The groom’s cake was a Star Wars cake made of chocolate Bavarian cheesecake.

To add personal flare to their wedding, the couple added touches of Star Wars decorations to their decor. The fun designs can be seen in their bean bags, cake topper, groom’s cake, and their photo booth where they used light sabers as props. Tram and Jimmy’s favorite moment of their wedding was their private first look together. They loved being able to share that special moment alone with their photographer. It helped them to calm their nerves and prepare for the day before them! The bride and groom danced their first dance as a married couple to, “Come and Get Your Love” by Redbone.

The happy couple spent a magical honeymoon at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida. They currently reside in Edmond where Tram works as a pharmacist and Jimmy is a clinical dietitian.

Jimmy was Tram’s brother’s chemistry lab partner at the University of Oklahoma in 2005. The pair first met when he came over to study one day, but they were both dating other people at the time. Seven years later, they reconnected on Facebook during Tram’s last year in pharmacy school. After chatting for a while, Jimmy asked Tram out to an Oklahoma City Thunder game. They have been together ever since!

Tram and Jimmy went for a vintage, romantic style for their fall wedding. They loved the antique and imperfect look, and Tram loved using lace to complement the theme! The bride wanted to go outside of the traditional fall color scheme by opting for a palette of dusty blues, muted golds, ivory and cranberry red.

The bride walked down the aisle in a fit and flare, tulle and lace Maggie Sottero gown. The gown consisted of an illusion neckline, dramatic sheer back and pearl buttons. She finished her look with a Ben-Amun pearl bracelet, Belle Badgley Mischka pearl earrings, and of course, her Tacori engagement ring.

For dessert, the three-tier wedding cake was alternating layers of German chocolate, carrot cake and banana complete with cream cheese icing throughout, all provided by OkieCookies. Jason Swanson provided the entertainment for the ceremony, and he sang “More of You” by Chris Stapleton for the bride and groom’s first dance at the reception.

Jana couldn’t have been more impressed with the work that Heather from Forever Cole Events accomplished. She decorated and planned everything exactly the way Jana wanted. Through working with Heather, Jana learned that hiring a wedding planner is a must in order to relax and enjoy the process. She advises future brides to make your wedding day all about you and your groom. Just enjoy your day!

The newlyweds took a road trip from Salt Lake City to Denver for their honeymoon. The happy couple is now enjoying married life in Yukon.

Jana and Chris first met in high school. Their love story officially started after they shared their first kiss on New Year’s Eve of 2004.

They have dated on and off since high school, but they finally realized they couldn’t live without each other. One Christmas, Jana came home from work to candles and a note leading her into the house where Chris was waiting for her. He popped the question, and afterward, they popped champagne with their family to celebrate.

The pair chose the Barn at the Woods for their wedding day because they loved the intimate feeling of the secluded barn and Victorian home. Their natural and organic wedding perfectly fit the venue with hues of white, nude, navy, and sage green. The bride walked down the aisle in the Blush by Hayley Paige’s Ginger gown that featured an empire-waist with long sleeves, and lace and sheer elements. Jana couldn’t get to Chris fast enough as he awaited their “I dos” under a gorgeous tree. The first look was the most memorable moment for the bride and groom. They couldn’t wait to be married!

The reception to follow was just what the couple had envisioned.

It was important to Emily and Matt that their wedding expressed their unique personalities. They agreed to only do things they found meaningful. For the ceremony, they had six nieces as flower girls — counting Emily’s sister-in-law’s baby bump — six bridesmaids and three groomsmen, all of whom sat during the ceremony. Matt and Emily love pizza, so they served pizza for the reception meal. And they’re obsessed with doughnuts, so they chose that as their dessert.

The couple had great experiences with their vendors, including the photographer, who felt like a family member by the end of the day. Their wedding planners had great timing as well. Overall, it was an intimate, perfectly executed, unforgettable night.

Matt and Emily met in Charlotte, North Carolina, just after college. They had several mutual friends but hadn’t crossed paths until spring of 2014 — or at least, that’s what Emily thought. Matt later admitted that he added Emily on Facebook two years earlier because he saw her at a school event and thought she was cute. A year after they met, Matt proposed to Emily in a park in Uptown Charlotte, across from the baseball stadium jumbo TV screen, which read “Will you marry me?”

Emily moved to Oklahoma City for work a month after the proposal, and Matt moved three months later to join her. They got married a year later. It has been bliss ever since.

On February 18, 2017, Hailey and Keeton were married at the OKC Farmers Public Market. Hailey looked beautiful in a ball gown featuring delicately jeweled spaghetti straps accented by a plunging V-neck ornamented with Swarovski crystals and lace. Her bouquet was full of blush pink roses alongside silver dollar eucalyptus and dusty miller to emphasize her rustic theme.

Hailey’s most cherished memory from her big day was watching Keeton hold back tears as she walked down the aisle.

Being a mid-day wedding, Café 7 provided a heavenly array of brunch food for guests to enjoy, including mini chicken and waffles, cinnamon rolls, and even a parfait bar! The entire day was a dream come true and will be treasured for a lifetime.

After the ceremony, Hailey and Keeton honeymooned in Breckenridge. The happy couple is now enjoying married life at their home in Yukon.

Hailey and Keeton first met through mutual friends in April of 2014, but lost touch with one another shortly after. It wasn’t until August of 2015 that they reconnected. Determined to get to know Hailey, Keeton invited her to dinner on Lake Hefner. The two ended up talking for hours and the rest was history!

When Keeton was ready to propose, he tricked Hailey into thinking they were going to his little sister’s senior night at her high school. They planned a quick date night before the game and headed downtown. Keeton told Hailey they were early for their dinner reservation, so to kill time he wanted to show her an art sculpture on display in the area. The sculpture encompassed multiple levels and as they got to the top, Keeton pointed into the distance toward the church they attended nearby. When she turned back around, he was down on one knee. Shocked, Hailey screamed, “NO,” followed by a quick, “Yes! I mean yes!”

everything was perfect.

George Catechis of The Fleuriste was a huge part of setting the tone for the big day! His work included a massive flower wall that was over twelve feet high by eight feet wide along with the most gorgeous flower arrangements Chelsea could have imagined.

The theme of Chelsea and Ben’s wedding was very much Kate Spade-inspired with black-and-white striped linens, and touches of gold and pink. The dance floor from Mood Party Rentals was glossy white with a lighted monogram. It was the perfect accent to the reception! Amy Cakes blew the couple away with the seven-tier cake and large groom’s cake designed as a house to represent the groom’s profession in real estate. Every single detail of their wedding was seamlessly put together thanks to Aisle Be With You.

Chelsea met Ben when he visited her salon as a client. After a few months of haircuts, Ben asked Chelsea out on a date and their love story officially began! The two fell in love quickly and got engaged after a seven-month courtship. The engagement was quite the surprise! Ben coordinated a huge surprise engagement party with all of their closest family and friends.

After the engagement, Chelsea and Ben started the planning process with Aisle Be With You’s Ariana Simms. Ariana took the oneyear engagement and planned out every single detail perfectly. The day of the wedding came with high emotions and much excitement.

Chelsea and Ben couldn’t wait to see all of their dreams become a reality, and they were blown away by the work of all of the amazing vendors. From the flowers and lighting to the cakes and dance floor, -A18-

there, they had life-sized cardboard cutouts made of them to use as welcoming signs. Another unique detail was the bride’s grandmother as the flower girl; she was definitely a hit with the guests and the cutest flower girl they had ever seen! Lisa included the blue stone that her grandmother gave her as a childhood gift into her wedding ring design, and she had her bouquet wrapped in her mother’s veil.

One of the most special moments in the wedding for the bride and groom was their first look before the ceremony. After they were married, the newlyweds drove off into the sunset in a vintage Packard convertible to the after party at The Meritage Resort and Spa. After returning from their honeymoon in the Caribbean, they continued the celebration with an intimate reception for family at their Brookside home in Tulsa.

At the Plaza Hotel in New York City, Matt rented out the beautiful Terrace Room for his proposal. He surprised Lisa with a “story of us” complete with framed pictures of special moments they shared together, accompanied by his handwritten story of their relationship.

To make their story complete, he made one last frame with the date on it and left it blank. He got down on one knee to propose, and a photographer was present to secretly capture the special moment to complete the blank frame.

Lisa and Matt chose to get married in Napa Valley, California, because they spent their first anniversary at the special location.

Matt knew on that first visit that they would get married in the idyllic city someday. The couple included many special elements in their wedding day. Because the couple’s beloved labs couldn’t be -A21-

December 30, 2016 at Cristo Rey Catholic Church. Alex wore a Vera Wang gown and cathedral length veil. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a cocktail hour at La Posada de Santa Fe, followed by a seated dinner in an outdoor tent, covered with glimmering lights and floral chandeliers over the courtyard gardens.

After many toasts and cheers, the dancing began to Dave and the Wavetones. The party was later visited by special surprise guest, Conchita, the tequila donkey.

Alex and Michael made their grand exit in a vintage MercedesBenz, surrounded by a sparkler send off. They departed New Mexico for their beach honeymoon in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.

Now, Alex and Michael live in their first home in Oklahoma City with their chocolate lab, Bogey. Alex is a lawyer at Durbin, Larimore and Bialick, and Michael is a law student at OU.

Alex and Michael began their journey as high school sweethearts at Heritage Hall in Oklahoma City. After high school, Alex attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas, and Michael went to the University of Oklahoma. Amid many fraternity date parties and sorority formals, the couple maintained their spark throughout college. After college, Alex moved back to Oklahoma to attend law school at the University of Oklahoma, and Michael started his career in oil and gas.

Alex and Michael’s journey to the altar began when Michael proposed two days before Christmas in 2015 at Mahogany Prime Steakhouse in downtown Oklahoma City. The two had a special private dinner together and were then joined by their families for a champagne toast and photos.

Alex and Michael’s destination wedding took place in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They were married in an evening ceremony on -A24-

planned a photo shoot to ensure Jessi looked “on point,” and as the shoot came to an end, she opened a box that released butterflies into the air. At that moment, Kris kneeled on one knee and popped the question! The couple celebrated downtown with their wonderful friends, family and a lot of champagne.

Jessi and Kris’ wedding day was a mix of happy tears and a lot of laughter – some laughter at the bride’s expense as she got Kris confused with his twin brother moments before their emotional first look. Nothing would have been possible without Jessi’s mother, the best wedding party of all time, and their incredible vendors. A special shout-out to Rachel Photographs for capturing every moment of the day that Jessi married the love of her life.

After they both #swipedright in the summer of 2014, Jessi and Kris quickly set up a date to meet for the first time. Jessi was not used to such polite, good-looking gentlemen, so she was quite frazzled when Kris knocked on her door looking like he had just walked off a runway. Kris complimented Jessi’s dress and she responded with, “Would you like to meet my pet ferret?!” The rest is history!

On the couple’s birthday weekend – their birthdays are only days apart – Jessi had a feeling that as she and Kris walked around the Myriad Botanical Gardens at dusk, her life was about to change forever. Unfortunately, she was a few months off. Two months later, Kris planned a magical proposal complete with a photo shoot, a butterfly release and a rooftop celebration. He

For the ceremony, Jared designed sliding barn doors for Jena Beth’s truly grand entrance. The side that Jena Beth would enter through had her maiden name, and the side that they would exit through had their married name. Jena Beth carried handkerchiefs that belonged to her grandmother and grandfather as her “something old.” She loved carrying a piece of them with her down the aisle.

As a special touch to the reception, Jena Beth had a “prayer bouquet” instead of a bouquet toss. She chose one of her single girlfriends to give the bouquet to, and she prayed over her friend and her future spouse. The bride and groom danced their first dance as a married couple to “Never Stop” by SafetySuit.

The happy couple spent a beautiful honeymoon in Bora Bora.

They currently reside in Tulsa where Jena Beth is an occupational therapy assistant and Jared is a commercial real estate professional.

Jena Beth and Jared were set up on a blind date at a comedy club by friends. They instantly hit it off and went for drinks after the show. They went out again a few days later and have been together ever since!

Jared knew it was the right time to propose when both of their families were together for Easter. As they were preparing for dinner, Jena Beth had no idea what was about to happen. Jared got everyone’s attention and said a few words before getting down on one knee to propose. Her answer was, “Of course I will!”

Because Jena Beth and Jared are both from small towns, they wanted a theme for their wedding that reflected their country background and personalities. Jena Beth had envisioned an intimate setting with classic elegance, and she found exactly what she was looking for at Spain Ranch in Jenks. She created her perfect rustic glam wedding with hues of white, gold and champagne, and pops of amethyst and navy.

silver and navy tones as well as natural wood elements was exactly what she had envisioned.

Alisha added several special touches to her big day. The couple’s invitations were made from real cedar planks that Alisha’s high school wood shop class designed for them! The wedding officiant was very dear to Alisha’s heart; Dave Martin was the athletic director at Oklahoma State University where Alisha was a cheerleader. She was honored to have him as a part of her special day.

Alisha and J.R.’s wedding day was everything they could have imagined! Alisha will never forget every moment, but her favorite moment was getting ready with her family and best friends before the wedding. The happy couple is looking forward to a lifetime together, and they are happy to announce they are pregnant. Baby Harrison is due to arrive on their first anniversary!

Alisha and J.R. met through a mutual friend in 2010 when J.R. was playing basketball professionally in Europe and Alisha was a cheerleader for the Houston Texans. They immediately hit it off and continued to date the whole summer. Even as J.R. went back overseas for the next season, the couple remained inseparable. Years of long distance and traveling together flew by!

After five years together, J.R. proposed on Alisha’s 30th birthday.

She arrived to their house to find a scavenger hunt throughout the house that J.R. had set up. At the end of the hunt, there was a walkway of candles where J.R. stood at the end and asked Alisha to marry him.

Alisha and J.R. knew right away that Southwind Hills was where they wanted to be married. The Southwind team made their wedding process an absolute breeze. Alisha’s rustic glam wedding in hues of

in their simple ceremony.

At their reception, Erin and Attila served delicious farm-totable finger foods for their guests. The menu included fresh fruit, grilled fresh vegetables, gourmet cheese boards, fried chicken, beef brisket sliders, and homemade mac and cheese. For dessert, Twisted Sisters created a three-tier Neapolitan naked cake with light buttercream frosting. Flavors in the cake consisted of chocolate, berry and vanilla. The groom’s cake was a lavender vanilla crumb cake.

The bride and groom danced to “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros for their first dance. The most memorable moment for the couple was at the end of the evening when all of their guests danced with LED hoops! Their live band, Smooch, kept the dance floor packed all night long.

Erin and Attila currently reside in Oklahoma City, where Erin works as a barber, makeup artist and performer, and Attila works as a director, cinematographer and actor.

Erin and Attila met when Erin was singing with her band, Them Hounds, at their album release party. Attila happened to be there filming the show. A few weeks later, Attila joined them on tour, and the rest is history!

When Erin visited Attila in New Orleans while he was shooting a documentary, he knew it would be the perfect time to propose.

They went out to the beach on the gulf of Mississippi, and Attila popped the question. Erin, of course, said yes!

Erin and Attila’s artsy and classic wedding consisted of a color palette of gold, sea foam green and burgundy, which was inspired by jewel tones and nature. The bride was escorted down the aisle by her mother and carried her father’s pocket watch and handkerchief on her bouquet who recently passed away. Erin looked radiant in her Maggie Sottero champagne silk gown with short sleeves, a fitted bodice with delicate beading, a plunging neckline and flowing skirt. She complemented the look with handmade topaz earrings.

Shelby and Taylor kicked off their wedding weekend with a rehearsal dinner at West, and then hosted an after-party at McNellie’s for out-of-town family and friends. The two were married on December 17, 2016, at Crossings Community Church as snow fell silently outside. The party continued at the Farmers Public Market for a reception full of gold accents, natural elements, warm candlelight and cedar branches flowing throughout. The bride wore a lace gown from Meg Guess Couture, and the groom wore a fitted navy suit. The bride and groom paid tribute to their grandparents with Shelby wearing her late grandmother’s ring, and Taylor wearing his late grandfather’s pin from the U.S. Army 103rd Infantry.

The couple currently resides in Oklahoma City with their dog, Rey.

Shelby and Taylor met during their senior year at Oklahoma State University. Having mutual friends, Shelby’s roommate invited Taylor and his roommate over to watch a football game.

Throughout the night, the two didn’t talk much, but Taylor remembers screaming at the TV because of a bad play, and Shelby looking up from her computer and replying with a snarky comment. From that moment, he was in love.

Taylor proposed to Shelby with a scavenger hunt full of heartfelt letters from family and friends. Each destination on the scavenger hunt held a specific meaning for the couple – their favorite craft beer bar, their favorite coffee shop, the school where Shelby works, and finally, the sanctuary where they attend church together. Shelby walked into the sanctuary to find Taylor on the steps with a journal in hand. Together they relived their two-year journey as a couple, and when Taylor got down on one -A34-

Lexy and Jon’s love story began in high school. They met at a mutual friend’s party and immediately hit it off. After talking the whole evening, Jon asked Lexy out on a date. It only took a few months of dating to see that their connection was unique. They both knew that it was meant to be!

Over the holiday break, Jon took Lexy out to a nice restaurant after she had been away on vacation. They were seated at a private table and greeted with champagne. As they toasted to dinner, Lexy saw the engagement ring in her glass. Jon got down on one knee and proposed. Lexy, without a doubt, said YES! On October 28th, Lexy and Jon’s big day finally arrived. The garden glamour wedding at Coles Garden was dripping with romance and elegance through the stunning decor and soft blush, ivory, gold and navy color scheme. The bride walked down the aisle in an ivory Martina Liana gown, consisting of a beaded bodice, tulle skirt and Chantilly lace appliqués. She complimented her stunning dress with a cathedral-length veil, with matching Chantilly lace and

simple pearl and diamond drop earrings. Lexy’s beautiful bouquet made by The Fleuriste was filled with white garden roses accented with seeded eucalyptus, wrapped in the lace from the hem of Lexy’s bridal gown. The bride and groom will never forget their first look.

It was the most special moment of their wedding day.

After they said “I do,” Lexy and Jon celebrated with their loved ones at their reception. All eyes were on the beautiful couple as they danced their first dance to “Lucky” by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat.

Lexy and Jon couldn’t have been happier with their amazing vendors.

The C2 Catering staff worked tirelessly to deliver their requests for the menu. Following the amazing meal, the couple served guests a delectable cake by Stacie’s Cake. The Fleuriste’s beautiful florals details added the perfect touch to their day. Lexy and Jon’s wedding day was everything they could have imagined and more!

The newlyweds jetted off to St. Lucia for their honeymoon getaway. They are currently enjoying married life in Oklahoma City.

stunning ceremony in the comfort of their own backyard. Choosing white as her base color, Britta selected pops of color found in the garden to create a fresh and clean feel that she would incorporate throughout her big day. They strayed in many ways from convention - the bride wore a vintage blush gown and the groom an indigo suit.

Guests were invited to gather for pre-ceremony cocktails under cafe lights while the bride and groom enjoyed a first look and a private toast of their own upstairs overlooking the festivities. The couple walked each other down the aisle to their sweet friend Carly Gwin singing, “Dream A Little Dream Of Me” by the Mamas and the Papas. The ceremony was framed by fresh lavender bushes the bride and groom had planted with their wedding in mind, and after saying “I do” guests tossed fresh lavender in celebration.

The couple mixed and mingled before heading to the after party at Aloft Hotel. Between the ceremony and reception, Britta and Reeve had a chance to sneak away from the crowd, run to their suite and order burgers, which ended up being their favorite memory of the night.

The next morning the happy couple packed their bags and hopped on a plane for their two week Mediterranean honeymoon.

Reeve and Britta met while Britta was serving at Picasso on Paseo. Reeve lived down the street and found himself eating dinner at the local cafe a couple times a week so that he could visit his favorite waitress. Other than an occasional run-in on the town, the two had never met outside the restaurant until one weekend when a mutual friend organized a karaoke night that both Reeve and Britta attended. Reeve’s Morissey rendition impressed Britta so much that they made dinner plans for the following evening, and they were immediately inseparable.

Reeve proposed to Britta on Valentine’s Day of 2015 while in Paris at the remarkable Sainte-Chapelle gothic chapel. Of course, Britta said yes and the two began planning their dream wedding.

Soon after the engagement, the sweet couple found the home of their dreams, a timeless two-story klinker bricked Tudor in Linwood complete with a gorgeous garden that bloomed with roses, peonies, hydrangeas, daisies and five-foot tall Russian sage. While sitting on their deck one day, Britta realized their new backyard rivaled any of the wedding venues she had been visiting. She then turned to Reeve and exclaimed, “Babe! Let’s just get married here!”

With the help of stylist Lindsey Brunk, Britta and Reeve planned a

experience and plan the perfect day. The couple always dreamt of a classic, winter wedding. They incorporated neutral shades, floating candles and natural greenery for the January wedding. The two were married at First Presbyterian Church of Tulsa by Dr. Jim Miller, the pastor who baptized them both. Family and tradition were evident throughout the entire wedding, from the sentimental ceremony to the reception filled with hundreds of family and friends at Southern Hills Country Club. A special surprise song from the bride’s father during the father-daughter dance left the bride and the whole room in tears.

The day was truly idyllic as icicles created a winter wonderland for the couple. Lauren’s gorgeous Pronovias gown, complete with a flowing train, stunned against the winter backdrop. Family and friends surprised the couple by traveling through the weather, even all the way from Shanghai, to join the celebration. Lauren and Dylan’s fairytale wedding lasted late into the night as they partied the night away with their guests.

The happy couple is now finally in the same city, enjoying marital bliss in Tulsa.

While their families knew each other for ages, Lauren and Dylan first remember meeting at Booker T. Washington High School.

Dylan was a senior football player and Lauren a sophomore varsity cheerleader. From the moment they met, they knew it was something special. Their long distance relationship quickly began when Dylan went to play football at the University of Oklahoma, then at the University of Houston. Lauren also attended the University of Oklahoma but made sure to attend every home game for Houston.

After nearly five years, it was finally time for Dylan to pop the question.

Dylan flew Lauren to her favorite place, New York City, for a long weekend. After a day of Lauren’s favorite things – breakfast at Tiffany’s, lunch at Serendipity and a Broadway show – Dylan made reservations at the 21 Club. While there, he presented her with a box that contained several boxes. Each box held a letter to Lauren and a prayer over their past and future. In the final letter with the ring, he prayed to have Lauren say yes to their future together, which she did joyfully.

A long engagement allowed them plenty of time to fully enjoy the

promptly said yes!

Brittan and John David tied the knot on September 9, 2016.

Because Brittan had skied at Keystone Resort in Colorado since she was 4, she knew that she wanted to add her “best day ever” to the list of cherished memories she made there.

Brittan chose a theme of mountain chic and modern romance.

Pink Monkey Rentals and Ali Fortunato Botanicals put their vision together by including simple and clean color tones of white, gold and green to complement the atmosphere of the venue. This worked especially well when the bride and groom had their first look atop a mountain Brett Heidebrecht captured perfectly. Guests also basked in the beauty of the mountains as they arrived to the ceremony via gondola. Gibson Events orchestrated everything perfectly and went above and beyond their expectations to execute their dream wedding!

After having the wedding of their dreams, the happy couple packed up and moved to Amarillo, Texas, where they enjoy every moment of married life.

Brittan and John David found their way to each other thanks to mutual friends at the University of Oklahoma. Their romance sparked in New Orleans after cheering their Sooners to victory at the OU-Alabama football game. It wasn’t long before the two decided to start dating.

Having a relationship built on fun and laughter, John David chose to propose using the two things he knew Brittan loved most: his sense of humor and their dog, Fitzgerald.

John David began the proposal by telling Brittan that their dog had run away. Naturally, Brittan was so shaken that she frantically hopped in the car and wiped away tears as she scoured the neighborhood in search for her lost pup. About 10 minutes into her search, she received a call from someone within the area telling her that they found Fitzgerald in a field outside the neighborhood.

When Brittan arrived to the location, Fitzgerald was there with a sign hanging around his neck that read, “Will you please marry my daddy?” Tears of joy quickly replaced her tears of worry.

John David soon appeared and knelt down on one knee. Brittan -A42-

crystal-embroidered straps. The bridesmaids wore stunning sequin gowns. Tanner and his groomsmen wore timeless black tuxedos. The couple said “I do” and shared their first kiss as Mr. and Mrs. Horn under a whimsical floral arch. The wedding and reception were romantically decorated in hues of ivory, blush and hints of green. One of Tanner’s requests was to have a lively atmosphere, so they found the perfect band from Memphis, Tennessee. Their first dance as husband and wife was to Ray LaMontagne’s “You Are the Best Thing.” The newlyweds danced the night away and brought the evening to an end by serenading their guests on stage.

The couple could not have dreamed of a more perfect wedding weekend to celebrate the beginning of their life together. Abby and Tanner spent their honeymoon exploring Thailand and now reside in Oklahoma City.

Abby and Tanner met in Oklahoma City through mutual friends after they each began their careers. Once they realized they shared a love for adventure and a commitment to family and friends, their relationship quickly evolved and they soon became inseparable. After a few years of dating, he asked her father for his blessing and he proposed near a beautiful lake. A secret photographer captured the moment and they spent the evening celebrating with family and friends.

From the beginning, they knew they wanted a classic wedding – something simple yet elegant. They chose the historic Mayo Hotel in Tulsa because Abby fell in love with the grand staircase and the beautiful ballroom. It was also the perfect midpoint between their hometowns of Edmond and Fayetteville.

On April 8, 2017, their day had finally arrived. Abby walked down the aisle in a fit and flare gown with a cascading skirt and -A44-

On November 5, 2016, Lisa and Shane were married by the Honorable Judge Philippa James surrounded by friends and family. The ceremony was followed by a cocktail hour and dinner accompanied by live music. Once the wedding ended, Shane looked at Lisa and said, “That is the most fun I have ever had.” To the bride, that meant the night was a success, and she thought the same thing!

The couple could not have asked for a more perfect day.

A month after the ceremony, the Leaches honeymooned in Wine Country. The happy couple is now enjoying married life with their dog, Durden, at their home in Oklahoma City.

Lisa and Shane met at a friend’s album release show in Oklahoma City. The two didn’t exchange numbers but ended up meeting again a few days later at a game night set up by mutual friends. The pair realized early on they had a mutual love for Star Wars, and the rest is history! Shane had an engagement ring custom-made just for her and proposed by recreating their very first date.

Lisa began her wedding planning process with the help of her mom, Genie, and wonderful wedding planner, Ariana.

soon-to-be husband in an ivory mermaid-style gown with a lace blouse from Rue de Seine. With her bridesmaids by her side — adorned in lavender lace dresses, holding pink tulips — Elyse felt pure joy standing next to Robert during their intimate ceremony.

The reception featured a family-style dinner of fried chicken and mashed potatoes along with a vanilla cake, coated with a delicious strawberry buttercream frosting. The newlyweds and their guests danced the night away to their personal collection of vinyls. The couple gave each of their guests biodegradable paper hearts with wildflower seeds interwoven, a great gift for their garden-themed celebration.

After their big day, Elyse and Robert traveled to San Francisco, California, for their honeymoon. They are now enjoying their married life in Tulsa.

Elyse and Robert first met at a mutual friend’s house party in late 2009. That night of fun set the couple up for a lifetime of joy. For Elyse and Robert, it was truly being in the right place at the right time.

Robert’s proposal was fairytale perfect. He popped the question on the gorgeous beaches of Mexico, bright and early in the morning of the Fourth of July. Elated, Elyse said yes, and to this day, their engagement is one of the couple’s favorite memories.

On April 1, 2017, Elyse and Robert were married at the Living Arts of Tulsa, a unique venue in the heart of Tulsa’s historic Brady District. This contemporary arts gallery was the perfect setting for the bride’s vision of a nature-inspired aesthetic. The bride and groom incorporated their theme throughout the design of the wedding, using a green, white and pale pink color scheme.

pearls and rhinestones.

For the reception, the mother-of-the-bride built a beautiful floral wall that was the focal point of the event. The food, which included prime rib, chicken scaloppini, and chicken and waffles, was catered by Uptown Grocery Co. The bride’s grandpa, who passed away a month after the wedding, made his famous meatballs that were included in the appetizers and enjoyed by all.

The entertainment for the evening was provided by Box Talent Agency and they were a hit with everyone! The happy couple danced their first dance to, “From the Ground Up” by Dan and Shay.

The most memorable moment for the bride and groom was their first look. With their wedding day rushing around them, it was nice to have thirty minutes alone together to slow down and really soak in the day.

The newlyweds honeymooned in Cancun, and currently reside in Edmond where Madison works in marketing and Logan is an accountant.

Madison and Logan met in seventh grade at Oklahoma Christian School in Edmond. Madison had the biggest crush on Logan in high school, and they finally started dating junior year when he asked her to winter formal. They are true high school sweethearts!

Certain she was “the one,” Logan planned the perfect proposal for Madison. He first sent her to their favorite pizza place where her friends were waiting for her with a message. She was then sent to get ready with her friends, get her nails done, and then to church with her family, all destinations having messages from Logan. Finally, she arrived at the Myriad Botanical Gardens where Logan was waiting for her and popped the question!

Madison and Logan’s fall wedding consisted of a berry and navy color scheme with accents of blush and gold. The bride walked down the aisle in an ivory, lace, A-line gown with long sleeves, an off-the-shoulder neckline and an illusion sheer back by Hayley Paige. She completed the look with a Harper Henry Waltz round cascade bridal illusion veil and a custom-made sash with -A54-

and engagement celebration. Then came wedding planning.

The couple knew they wanted a fall wedding, but the date couldn’t interfere with their love of football season. They finally picked October 4 and were married near downtown Oklahoma City in Automobile Alley. They chose Plenty Mercantile as a venue, which provided a perfect rooftop wedding with a great view of the OKC skyline.

Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the couple were married by one of the groom’s best friends from his hometown.

Andrew and Lauren danced their first dance to “Stand by Me,” sang by a close friend of the couple.

Mutual friends brought the Andrew and Lauren together, and they’re grateful to now share friends and memories together for the rest of their lives.

How Andrew and Lauren didn’t meet before they did is beyond them. The couple met through mutual friends that they had both known for years, but they never seemed to be at the same place at the same time.

After maneuvering a long-distance relationship for a few months, Andrew and Lauren both moved to Oklahoma City.

Lauren, eager for the proposal, started looking for every opportunity that Andrew could propose. Andrew, meanwhile, was dead set on surprising her. Lauren was convinced that he would propose when the couple traveled to Denver in November 2015. But their return flight came, and — no diamond! A week later, on December 2, Lauren’s birthday, Andrew proposed at 6 a.m. before they started their work day. Andrew succeeded in surprising Lauren! The couple enjoyed a celebratory breakfast and then went to work. That night, they joined friends and family for a birthday

veil. Teale selected a unique gown for each of her bridesmaids to complement their style and personalities.

Teale and Josh’s guests loved the candy bar. The couple also had a hot chocolate bar outside, which included flannel blankets sewn by the mother-of-the-bride for guests’ use. It was important to the bride and groom to recognize their late grandparents on their wedding day, so they had their names featured in their program.

The bride also wore her grandmother’s earrings on her big day.

The entire day was unforgettable, but Teale and Josh especially loved their private first look together. They will always cherish the memory of seeing each other for the first time and exchanging the special vows they had written for each other. It was the perfect moment to spend alone together and soak in the whole day. They also particularly loved their reception; the live band was incredible and kept the dance floor packed all night. The bride and groom shared their first dance to “To the Moon and Back” by Luke Bryan.

The bride and groom honeymooned in Anguilla, and now reside in Houston, where Teale works as a recreational therapist and Josh is an engineer.

Teale and Josh met at The Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas while both on trips with friends. As soon as they met, they knew there was something special about one another. The groups went their separate ways, and Teale and Josh didn’t see each other for the rest of the trip. Months later when Josh found out his job was relocating him to Oklahoma, he immediately thought of Teale. He texted her and they began talking every day. After their first date, they became inseparable.

After spending the day with a friend, Teale arrived to her house to find candles, roses, a timeline of their love story, and their new golden retriever puppy! In the backyard was a palm tree and pictures to commemorate the night they met in the Bahamas. Josh got down on one knee to propose, and Teale couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

Thanks to the help by her amazing vendors, Teale’s elegant wedding turned out exactly how she envisioned. Teale used navy, cream, blush, and pops of gold and red for her winter wedding.

imagined. The four-tier cake by Andrea Howard Cakes consisted of alternating layers of vanilla and pink champagne; the confection was beautiful and delicious. Oklahoma Strings Quartet performed the music for the ceremony and DJ Connection provided the reception entertainment to keep all the guests dancing the whole night. The couple danced to “To the Moon and Back” by Luke Bryan for their first dance.

For the bride and groom, the most memorable moment from their big day was changing into “wifey” and “hubby” T-shirts, and having a private last dance before their grand exit. They loved the intimate moment together as husband and wife at the end of their special night. Paige and Robert could feel the excitement from their friends and family as they made their exit in an adorable classic car. They will never forget that moment or the joy they felt the entire day.

The couple honeymooned in beautiful St. Lucia and now resides in Oklahoma City.

Paige and Robert were initially set up by mutual friends in the fall of 2014. After spending more time together, it was clear the two had something special. Robert planned the perfect rooftop proposal after Paige had shown him engagement photos at the same spot. Before meeting friends for dinner, Robert took Paige on the roof where she saw a rug lined with candles. She turned to see Robert on one knee! He even had a photographer to capture the entire moment as their friends excitedly watched from a rooftop across the street.

On November 12, 2016, Paige and Robert were married at Coles Garden. The couple’s romantic garden wedding dazzled in shades of maroon, gold, ivory and pink. The bride walked down the aisle in a fit and flare Casablanca gown that featured beaded lace and tulle with a sweetheart neckline and cap sleeves. She complemented the look with earrings by Nadri and a small gold ring that her father gave to her mother as a promise ring in high school.

Every element from their big day was exactly what they

hiding to celebrate with the happy couple.

The couple was married on December 31, 2016, at St. Mark Catholic Church with the reception at The Skirvin Hilton. The bride carried her late father’s blue rosary as her something blue while wearing a sparkling Allure Couture dress. The groom wore his leather watch that the bride had given him on his 21st birthday.

The Nashes rang in the New Year with family and friends. Gold balloons reading “NASH 2017” graced the ballroom wall, while beautiful garland adorned the tables. The wedding hashtag set the tone for the evening of celebrating, #LetsGetNashty. To the guests’ surprise, the couple had Pizza Shuttle cheesy bread, a college favorite, delivered immediately following a confetti burst at midnight.

The newlyweds honeymooned in St. George’s, Grenada, and currently reside in Norman.

Madison and Michael met on a high school summer leadership retreat at the University of Oklahoma. Several of their close friends were at the same retreat not knowing they would be a part of the couple’s wedding party years later. The couple began dating during their sophomore year of college, and the rest is history.

During summer 2015, Michael enrolled in the OU College of Law’s study abroad program in Oxford, England. Madison had studied there during her undergraduate days and decided to join the group for the beginning of the law program. Michael planned a date for the couple at Madison’s favorite restaurant in Oxford. After their meal, Michael asked Madison if they could take a picture on the bridge. Hesitant that they would be late for the program’s welcome reception, Madison reluctantly agreed. Reminding Madison how important this place had been to their relationship six years prior, Michael got down on one knee and proposed. Moments later their friends rushed out from -A62-

London and Watters gown, featuring a sweetheart neckline and soft tulle skirt. During the ceremony, Kim and Jordan took communion, which was so special and important to them. Kim added another special touch to her look by wearing her grandmother’s wedding band on her right ring finger.

At the reception, Kim’s mother and grandmother’s wedding dresses were displayed with their love stories included for even more personal touches. On top of their amazing food and cakes – including an Oreo groom’s cake – the couple incorporated a hot chocolate and cider station into their reception. Kim and Jordan danced their first dance as a married couple to “Amazing Day” by Coldplay. To end the magical night, the happy couple left feeling so loved as their guests held sparklers to celebrate their grand exit. It was a moment the pair will cherish forever.

The newlyweds spent an amazing honeymoon in Hawaii. They are now enjoying marital bliss in Oklahoma City.

Kim and Jordan first met online. After getting to know each other, Jordan learned how much Kim loved books so he recommended they meet at Barnes & Noble for their first date.

When Kim arrived, Jordan greeted her with Oreos because he knew they were her favorite. Now, Kim and Jordan go back to Barnes & Noble on every anniversary so he can buy her a book and give her Oreos.

More than two years later, Jordan took Kim on a surprise picnic to propose. He had his friends take their picture and that’s when he popped the question! Afterward, Jordan threw a surprise engagement party for Kim with all of their friends and family.

Kim will never forget seeing Jordan for the first time on their wedding day. Her groom was blindfolded so he could not see her, but she was elated and overwhelmed with emotion to see her soonto-be husband. The moment Jordan finally saw Kim walking down the aisle was surreal. His bride looked perfect in her Stephanie Allin -A64-

a night of wine and dessert at Vast before calling their family and friends.

Cate enjoyed every minute of planning the wedding with her mom. Hiring Leslie Herring Events for wedding planning was the best decision they made. It made the process less stressful and allowed them to focus on the fun parts of wedding planning.

Cate and Justan’s elegant wedding was held on April 8, 2017, at Gaillardia Country Club in Oklahoma City. Planning an outdoor wedding in Oklahoma can be risky. However, despite the Oklahoma wind, it was a beautiful, warm day. Cate and Justan enjoyed a perfect evening, surrounded by family and friends.

The couple spent their honeymoon in Jamaica. They now reside in Oklahoma City.

On May 10, 2014, Cate graduated from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center with no intentions of meeting someone special, especially not her future husband. Meanwhile, Justan was out with friends and spotted Cate hanging out at a local Oklahoma City bar with a few women he knew from Oklahoma State University. Justan was quick to inform Cate that she had just met “Mr. Wright.” Cate claims that she did not fall for his line, but clearly it worked in the end. The rest of the night, the two were inseparable.

Two years later, Justan proposed to Cate on what felt like the top of the world. He reserved a room on the top floor of the 50-story Devon Tower and asked for her hand in marriage. To this day, the couple still debates whether Cate had time to say yes before he put the ring on her finger. After the proposal, the couple enjoyed

midnight blue tuxes.

Following the ceremony was a cocktail reception and formal dinner and dancing at the beautiful Skirvin Hilton. The venue was absolutely perfect for the occasion. The bride’s parents surprised the bride and groom by inviting Rumble the Bison of the Oklahoma City Thunder to the party! This was very fitting with the groom’s Rumble cake. Rumble made an exciting entrance by playing the band’s drums, dancing with the guests, and giving the bride and groom a signed Thunder basketball that said “Best Swishes.”

The newlyweds were thrilled by how many people were still out on the dance floor at midnight; Dave and the Wavetones did a great job of keeping the party going! The couple made their exit down the beautiful Skirvin staircase beneath a shower of white rose petals. They then spent their wedding night in the Honeymoon Suite at the Skirvin.

The couple spent a relaxing and romantic week honeymooning at Couples Swept Away resort in Negril, Jamaica.

Christina and Michael met in December 2013 at Belle Isle Brewery when Michael invited her to trivia night with some of his friends. They clearly were meant for each other as a stranger that night asked them how long they had been married! After a year and a half of dating, Michael decided to make it official with a surprise proposal at the Myriad Botanical Gardens. He then surprised her with dinner with their families at Red PrimeSteak – where they had their first official date – to celebrate followed by a surprise engagement party with all of their friends at O Bar. Christina and Michael envisioned a classic and elegant wedding with a neutral color scheme. Between the hard work of their parents, their wedding planner, Judy Lehmbeck, and all of their wonderful vendors, the wedding weekend came together perfectly. They said “I do” on April 9, 2016, at St. Joseph Old Cathedral in Oklahoma City in the presence of God, their families and friends. The bride wore a double-laced ivory Maggie Sottero gown.

by Essense of Australia. She complemented her dress with a belt made with blush ribbon and crystal centerpiece, an elbow-length veil and Kendra Scott earrings.

At their reception, the bride and groom served passed hors d’oeuvres consisting of stuffed mushrooms, skewered Caprese salad, and a chicken and apple chip. The entree was a filet and salmon duet with wild mushroom risotto and sautéed asparagus accompanied by a Caesar salad. The cake was a buttercream four-tier cake by Amy Cakes in flavors of French vanilla, chocolate and pumpkin. The gorgeous confection was painted gold on one layer with bands of gold sequins around the bottom. Gillian and Matt danced to “From the Ground Up” by Dan + Shay for their first dance as man and wife.

For the bride, her most memorable moment was her father’s speech. He talked about the day she was born when she almost didn’t make it due to complications. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room, and Gillian will never forget that emotional moment.

The bride and groom honeymooned in beautiful Cancun. The happy couple now lives in Fort Worth.

Gillian and Matt met in September of 2011 while attending Oklahoma State University. One night, Gillian was studying in her room when she heard a loud banging coming from four boys who lived above her. Frustrated, she went upstairs to not so politely ask them to keep it down. Afterward, she felt bad and returned to their room to apologize. The boys invited Gillian and her roommate to hang out anytime they wanted, and they met up the following weekend. She met Matt, and they immediately hit it off. A few months later, he asked her to be his girlfriend, and they’ve been together ever since!

A few years later, one of Gillian’s best friends invited her to a Brides of Oklahoma event in downtown Oklahoma City. As they walked down the steps into the botanical garden, Gillian saw Matt appear from behind a tree, and she knew what was actually happening. He got down on one knee and asked her to marry him, and she said yes. The couple could not wait to start their future together!

Gillian and Matt’s classic and chic wedding consisted of a glam color palette of red, black and gold. Gillian was inspired by beautiful red roses and over-the-top centerpieces for her decor. The bride -A70-

The couple knew they needed a full year to plan the wedding. It was also important to them to pick a day that was special to them.

Stephyn always wanted to have a New Year’s Eve wedding with a timeless, elegant theme. She got just that in her special day! Her bridesmaids wore striking black dresses and the groomsmen wore black tuxes with white jackets from The Wardrobe. Bella Rose was so wonderful with helping the bride find her perfect two-in-one dress.

With the boutique’s help, she was able to add a ball gown skirt over her mermaid-style dress. After the ceremony, she removed the ball gown skirt and wore the mermaid dress for the reception.

Stephyn and Ronnie’s reception was held at the Embassy Suite Hotel in Downtown Oklahoma City. The elegant reception area had enough space to hold the couple’s 300 guests. Tony Foss filled the room with beautiful flowers in varying shades of white. Tony knew the style the couple was going for and nailed it! The talented florist tied in tropical elements to add a touch of Hawaii from when Ronnie proposed. Amy Cakes made a delicious six-layer cake for all to enjoy.

Stephyn and Ronnie’s wedding was nothing but perfect. It was truly a night to remember as they danced the night away and rang in the New Year!

Stephyn and Ronnie met almost three years ago while she was house-shopping with her mom in Oklahoma City. It just so happens that her mother and Ronnie were relators, and also friends! Stephyn spent the next three weeks with Ronnie looking at different homes.

The pair had gone to do a final look at the house she had selected to build. Afterward, Ronnie asked if she wanted to join him at a pool party. Ironically, the night before, she was with some girlfriends and made a bet that the next guy to ask them out, they had to say, “Yes.” Stephyn said yes to Ronnie and the couple has been together on their wonderful adventure ever since!

Ronnie proposed at Christmas while the couple was in Hawaii with Stephyn’s family. It never crossed her mind that Ronnie would propose on the trip because he said it would never happen on vacation. On the day he popped the question, the pair was out sightseeing. On a stop, they were checking out the beautiful scenery when she noticed Ronnie walk away. When Stephyn turned, Ronnie was holding the ring. With a shocked expression and tears of joy running down her face, she couldn’t stop staring back and forth between Ronnie and the beautiful ring. After saying yes, she turned to see her family taking pictures nearby. It was perfect!

and her mom took the folded cranes and formed them into a striking five-foot chandelier that hung from the rafters directly above the couple at the ceremony. Guests were touched by the special meaning and work put into the statement piece. Kelly and her bridal party also created all the silk flower arrangements used as centerpieces.

The couple chose rich colors of navy and gold with pops of mint green to embrace their spring wedding. Also in the spirit of spring, the couple chose a gorgeous three-tier, all-white cake that had gold and mint ribbon embellishments at the bottom of each layer with Gerber daisies to complete the look. Their wedding was simply gorgeous from the mint bridesmaids’ gowns and bouquets of white calla lilies – made by the bride and her girls – to Kelly’s stunning sleeveless, ivory Monique Lhuillier gown and matching cathedral veil.

The happy couple honeymooned in Cancun and now resides in Tulsa.

Kelly and Turner’s story began on May 15, 2016, when the pair met through mutual friends in sunny Orlando. The couple was concerned that the spark they felt that week would have to be extinguished because they lived so far apart. Through FaceTime dates, a few road trips, and thousands of calls and texts from Oklahoma to Florida, the couple made their happily-ever-after possible knowing not even 1,216 miles could keep them apart. Turner was sure that Kelly was “the one.”

On New Year’s Eve, Turner popped the question during a party with their closest friends. The plan was for everyone to pop a balloon at midnight that contained a fortune for the New Year. When Kelly popped hers, it read, “Kelly will you marry me?” She quickly turned to find Turner on one knee and of course said yes!

On April 8, 2017, Kelly and Turner were married at The Campbell Hotel. Honoring Kelly’s Japanese heritage, she chose to follow the same tradition her mother did when she was a bride, which consisted of constructing 1,000 origami cranes before her wedding day. Kelly

on a golf course. The Golf Club of Oklahoma was Brooke’s dream venue! Once the venue was booked, everything fell into place.

Brooke had a vision for her spring wedding. Her favorite part was choosing the beautiful florals for the centerpiece arrangements. The entire wedding planning process was simple and stress-free, and Brooke loved being able to plan with her soon-to-be husband!

The bride and groom’s wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect. The weather was absolutely amazing for their special day.

Getting ready with her mom, sister and bridesmaids was a fabulous way to start the day! Brooke’s hairstylist and makeup artist made getting ready even more fun and exciting. From the moment her dad walked her down the aisle to their final send-off, the day was a dream come true. It was the most perfect day celebrating with the people the bride and groom loved the most. They couldn’t be happier to start their lives together!

The couple met in the summer of 2009 on their last day of school.

Brooke was at a friend’s pool that was across the street from where her future husband lived. He was walking to his truck when one of Brooke’s friends asked him to join them. The two were introduced, and they’ve been together ever since! From high school sweethearts to dating through college to marriage, it has truly been a fairytale.

Casey always knew Brooke wanted the proposal to be around their families. The Thanksgiving before Brooke graduated from college, he did just that. After they finished eating, he made a toast and took Brooke in front of their families where he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. Brooke was in shock, and it was the perfect proposal. Brooke will never forget that day for the rest of her life.

Wedding planning was a breeze for Brooke. Because she played golf in high school and college, she knew she wanted to get married -A76-

The couple planned their wedding for 18 months. The best decision they made was to hire wedding coordinator Mary Fencl Events. Andrew and Shaelynn enjoyed and loved every vendor they worked with, all of whom ensured their wedding day went smoothly. They were impressed with how professional Spain Ranch and Just Catering by Orr handled their setup. And the flowers from Ever Something Floral Bar were beautiful. In the end, Mary Fencl was a rockstar planner, and Shaelynn and Andrew enjoyed their perfect day, surrounded by a community of people who they care for and love so much.

Mutual friends had tried to get Andrew and Shaelynn together for about a month. After several text messages and ploys, their friends were successful. In hindsight, the couple is thankful for persistent friends. Andrew and Shaelynn met for the first time at George’s Pub in Jenks.

The proposal came a little more than a year later on August 4, 2015, while the couple was visiting Fairlee, Vermont. Shaelynn thought they were going into town for the evening and was surprised when they made a quick stop at the barn at Camp Lanakila. They danced to their song, “Overwhelmed.” When the song ended, Christmas lights that Andrew had decorated around the barn came on. Andrew proposed, and then the couple was joined by friends, -A77-

with her father to harvest a tree from their forest, mill the tree into slabs, and then design and assemble the table. For the wedding, the table was decorated with tall candles and a garland that stretched the length of the table. Over the table hung a chandelier made by the bride’s grandfather using vines harvested from the forest. The result was enchanting and left the bride and groom with a sense of awe and wonderment.

The bride and groom agree that the most beautiful part of the wedding was the collection of friends and family who came to support and celebrate their marriage. The presence of their guests was by far the richest blessing and joy of the day. It is a gift that continues to give strength and courage to the couple through these first young days of their marriage.

Ali and Ryan met in college at Oklahoma Christian University.

The pair was close friends for three years before they started dating.

After three years of dating, Ryan proposed to Ali atop Mount Wilson in California on one of their favorite hiking trails. The couple loves adventure, reading books and their labradoodle, Ransom.

The wedding theme came from the couple’s love of the forest and stories by their favorite authors, C.S. Lewis and George MacDonald.

The idea was to incorporate themes and elements from their favorite stories to achieve an ethereal, romantic and richly meaningful setting.

One of the bride’s favorite parts of wedding preparation was making the wedding table. She had an idea to build a 22-foot-long king’s table from a tree that grew on her family’s land. She partnered

and modern calligraphy, they achieved exactly that!

The two decided to forego a first look and instead spent a moment before the wedding reading heartfelt letters to one another while separated by a wall. The bride and groom saw each other for the first time through joyful tears while Lindsey walked down the aisle to an instrumental version of Bethel Music’s “Ever Be.” Lindsey wore a backless lace gown with a chapel-length veil and carried a beautiful, whimsical bouquet by Anthousai Florals.

After saying their “I dos,” Lindsey and David’s first act as husband and wife was washing each other’s feet as a vow to always remain humble and to serve and love at all times.

The reception was an evening full of treasured friends and family, dancing and, of course, coffee and mini doughnuts!

The newlyweds are now enjoying marital bliss in Owasso.

Lindsey and David met in 2015 and immediately knew there was a special connection between them. Their love for one another soon grew into the unconditional kind of love they had prayed about. It became clear to them that they truly were better together, and that it was God’s plan for them to get married!

On September 24, 2016, David took Lindsey to the Linnaeus Gardens at the Tulsa Garden Center where he presented her with a gorgeous pear-shaped ring and a Bible that had her future last name engraved on it. He then asked her to spend forever with him, and she joyfully said yes!

The happy couple spent the next five and a half months planning the wedding of their dreams. On March 4, 2016, they were married at the historic Tulsa Garden Center. Lindsey envisioned something simple, yet magical. Through a muted color scheme, lots of greenery

The reception, following the same theme as the ceremony, was beautiful and natural. To drink, there were peach bellinis as per the bride’s request, and Old Fashioned per the groom’s. The gorgeous three-tier, round wedding cake by Ms. Laura’s Cakes was a duo of white chocolate almond and white cake with raspberry filling, frosted with classic buttercream and adorned with green and peach flowers by The French Bouquet. Entertainment was a DJ provided by Banks Entertainment. The newlyweds danced to “Better Together” by Jack Johnson for their first dance.

Lauren and Ryan spent their honeymoon in Scottsdale, Arizona. They are now enjoying married life in Dallas.

Lauren and Ryan met on Campus Corner at the University of Oklahoma in 2010. After five years together, Ryan took Lauren on a trip to Seagrove Beach, Florida. While watching the sunset on the beach, he surprised her by popping the question.

The happy couple was married in May of 2016 at The Golf Club of Oklahoma. Their classic, elegant country club wedding was adorned with greenery and tons of southern charm. They used white, green, champagne and splashes of peach for a soft and subtle look to complement the landscape of their outdoor ceremony.

The bride walked down the aisle in a soft and romantic slimfitted gown featuring delicate lace details, a scoop neckline, cap sleeves and a low back from Allure Bridal.

The bridesmaids were stunning in long, dark green gowns, while the men looked handsome in light gray suits. The flowers and details included lovely shades of burgundy, blush, cream and gold. The reception was held at The Gaylord-Pickens Museum where the couple danced the night away with family and friends. Guests enjoyed delicious food, drinks and desserts with the fun addition of a lively photo booth. The couple ended the night with one final dance and departed through a shower of sparklers.

Amanda and Brian then enjoyed a week-long British getaway in London, England for their honeymoon.

Amanda and Brian first met while attending college at Oklahoma State University, and officially started dating in March of 2010. Following graduation, they dated long-distance while attending graduate school in separate cities.

Flash-forward to September 12, 2015: Amanda and Brian drove to Quartz Mountain State Park with friends for a fun day of hiking. While nearing the top of a mountain, Brian asked Amanda if she wanted to take a picture with the view. While posing for the picture, Brian got down on one knee and asked Amanda to marry him. Amanda happily accepted Brian’s proposal and the gorgeous gold ring!

The lovely reception at Spain Ranch included catering by Just Catering by Orr. The couple served their guests a mixed green salad, Sicilian chicken, beef tenderloin, roasted Yukon gold slices and fresh grilled veggies. Banks Entertainment provided the DJ for the event to keep the guests dancing all night. Joanna and Mitchell danced their first dance as a married couple to “You Are the Best Thing” by Ray LaMontagne. Mitchell added a personal touch to the reception by brewing his own apricot sour beer to serve at their wedding.

The most memorable moment of the day for the couple was their first look. When Joanna noticed Mitchell was wearing his groomsman’s tie instead of his own, it made them both laugh and helped to ease the nerves of the big day.

The happy couple spent a gorgeous honeymoon in the Dominican Republic. They currently reside in Tulsa.

Joanna and Mitchell met through mutual friends while attending Oral Roberts University in 2009. They didn’t hit it off at first, but five years later they reconnected and fell for each other instantly.

Mitchell knew he wanted to spend forever with Joanna. One day when she was at work, Mitchell decorated their brand new home with rose petals, flowers and candles. When Joanna arrived, she saw Mitchell standing by the fireplace in a suit. He shocked Joanna by getting down on one knee to propose. Their closest friends, family and a photographer came out from another room to celebrate afterward.

Joanna and Mitchell’s natural, fall wedding consisted of deep burgundy shades with accents of greenery and light pink.

Quinn spent the next few days changing his original proposal plans, ensuring that their friends and family could be there afterward to celebrate. He planned to take Hannah to dinner to celebrate her recently accepted job offer, but first, they were to stop at her grandmother’s house. As they entered the courtyard, Hannah started to notice the romance in the air, with candles and lanterns surrounding them. Before she knew it, Quinn got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever with him. Of course, she said yes!

Quinn and Hannah spent the next year beginning their careers and planning their dream wedding. Their wedding day turned out to be more beautiful than they could have ever imagined. With or without all of the dreamy details, the day was perfect because it was the beginning of their love story as husband and wife.

Quinn and Hannah met their sophomore year of college at Oklahoma State University. Right away, Quinn liked Hannah. He thought he was making that very clear to her, but it took Hannah a while to notice. Quinn remained persistent, though, over the next six months and persuaded her to date him. That year, Quinn and Hannah became inseparable and fell in love.

Three years and two fur babies later, Quinn and Hannah knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together. Quinn asked Hannah’s family for her hand in marriage and was given a diamond that had been passed down for generations. Quinn picked out a beautiful setting for the proposal, deciding he would propose after graduation, which was a few months later. However, two weeks later, the ring came in, and Quinn couldn’t wait.

a few other family members. When Jesse got there, he said his hellos and then Vanessa’s family said they needed to take a picture together in front of the Christmas tree, so the couple stood in front of the tree with her whole family watching. When Vanessa turned toward Jesse, her best friend and the love of her life was down on his knee with a gorgeous diamond ring in hand. He asked her to marry him and she immediately started bawling. She was shocked so it took her a minute to answer, but after some happy tears she finally said yes.

Most of her family was crying along with her and shouted for joy when she finally said yes. This Christmas was extra special for this couple and they will never forget it.

Vanessa and Jesse both grew up in Hobart, Oklahoma. The town of Hobart is very small and their families are good friends, so they can’t recall exactly where they met. They have known each other their whole lives and have always been close friends. They didn’t start dating until the summer after Jesse graduated high school.

The couple dated for four beautiful years when that special day finally came. It was Christmas morning and Vanessa had opened presents with her family and was anxiously waiting for Jesse to get to her house, because who doesn’t want to spend Christmas with the one they love?

By the time Jesse got to her house, all of Vanessa’s eight brothers and sisters were there, as well as her parents, grandparents and -A85-

The celebration began with a champagne hour and hors d’oeuvres among the beautiful garden foliage as the sun was setting, and continued with dinner on the library patio. Whitney and Walter were seated at a sweetheart table where guests came by throughout the evening to give their congratulations. After dinner, the couple had their first dance – a waltz they had practiced for months – to Chris Stapleton’s “More of You.” Guests were then transported to the Ambassador Hotel for an after party. The couple and guests danced the night away.

The couple enjoyed a wonderful honeymoon in Hawaii.

Whitney Dane Nall and Walter Ralph Floyd met in October 2011 at Cocktails on the Skyline at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. They knew right away they had something special. In June 2013, facing a long-distance relationship due to Whitney’s impending residency in St. Louis, Walter decided it was time to act and proposed on the same rooftop where they met.

The couple was married October 1, 2016, on the Stanton L. Young Walk at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City. As a student on the campus years earlier, Whitney had fallen in love with the fountain and gardens, and she knew that was where she wanted to get married. Family and friends gathered and jazz guitar played as Whitney walked down the aisle in her Hayley Paige gown. After the couple exchanged vows they had -A86-

together from the past seven years. The journal had pictures and short notes about each significant memory. At the end, he listed his future hopes for their travels together. For the last gift, he had her close her eyes. When he asked her to open them, he was down on one knee with the notebook opened to the last page where he had written, “Will you marry me?” Thankfully, Jon’s best friend was hiding behind a nearby tree to capture every moment of this perfect proposal on camera.

Natiel and Jon shared their vows in the breathtaking setting of the outdoor garden at the Dominion House in Guthrie. After shopping practically every bridal shop in the metro, Natiel found the dress of her dreams at Moliere Bridal. The simple elegance and fun that came with a garden wedding was present throughout the night. A variety of cupcakes from Cuppies & Joe, a photo booth with a glamorous backdrop, and quick-print photos were a huge hit for all the guests.

This glorious day will be cherished by Natiel and Jon forever.

Natiel and Jon met in college. She was a freshman with a crush on the senior captain of the soccer team. Early on, Natiel knew this was going to be the man she married. Lo and behold, seven years later they decided to tie the knot!

Jon surprised Natiel with an engagement after she threw him a surprise party for his 30th birthday. The day after his party, Jon told her he made special reservations for dinner to celebrate her birthday that was the following weekend. When he came to pick her up for dinner, he told her he had made reservations for an hour later than he had thought. To burn time, they went on a “pre-date” with a picnic basket packed in the car. Jon took her to a park where wine glasses and a cheese platter were already set out on a blanket. A gift was also on the blanket, which seemed appropriate as it was a birthday celebration. The gift was a traveling notebook, as Natiel enjoys journaling when exploring new places. Jon opened the book where he had recorded their journeys

attaching her grandfather’s wedding band, an antique family locket, and her grandmother’s cameo.

The most memorable moment for the couple was their first look before the ceremony. It was the sweetest and most perfect moment they shared alone basking in pure bliss that they were going to spend forever together.

The reception was just as beautiful and personal as the ceremony.

C2 Catering served some of the couple’s favorite foods, including fresh fruit, a taco bar, pulled pork and burger sliders, and green chile mac and cheese. The four-tier cake by Andrea Howard Cakes was coated with white buttercream, edible gold sequins and lush florals. To keep the event fun, Melia and Jeff incorporated games into their reception for both the kids and adults. M&M Productions also kept the energy in the room up. The newlyweds danced to “The Luckiest” by Ben Folds for their first dance.

Melia and Jeff explored the Pacific Northwest for their honeymoon. They are currently enjoying married life in Edmond.

Melia and Jeff first met on online. Soon after, Jeff asked Melia to The Barrel in Oklahoma City to watch the Thunder game. From the very beginning, they both knew they had something special.

Almost two years later, Melia was at Jeff ’s house when she noticed his dog, Bro, had a different collar. Jeff told Melia to look at the dog tag. When she looked closely, she saw written on the tag was, “Will you marry my dad?” Melia turned around and Jeff was on one knee.

It was the perfect moment for both of them.

In September, the couple finally said, “I do.” The garden-inspired wedding consisted of lush florals, candles, and a pink, burgundy and gold color scheme. As the bride was walking down the aisle, her veil got stuck in the bushes! She and her father had to wait for the planner to rescue her, but the moment helped ease their nerves.

Melia was glowing in a stunning lace gown by Stella York that featured a sweetheart neckline and trumpet silhouette. To accent her dress, Melia chose a long, beaded veil, gold hoop earrings and a Kate Spade bracelet. Melia added special touches to her bouquet by -A88-

One Thing I Learned...

“

“

IT’S EASY TO BECOME OVERWHELMED WITH ‘WHAT’S STYLISH’ OR ‘WHAT EVERYONE

ELSE IS DOING.’ IN THE END, WE HAD A WEDDING THAT WAS TRUE TO US. DID OUR WEDDING MENU MAKE COMPLETE SENSE? ABSOLUTELY NOT, BUT WAS IT COMPLETELY SHELBY AND TAYLOR? ABSOLUTELY.
