After dinner, it was time to welcome the rest of the guests and turn up the western fun.
A custom hat bar, cowboy hat drink charms, styled bar shelving with glassware, horse bookends and collected details brought the theme to life without taking it too far. Add in elevated western attire, cocktails and great music, and it was the perfect Nashville inspired welcome party.
Every detail felt playful, polished and completely fitting for our couple. The perfect way to officially kick off the wedding weekend!
