Rustic Wedding 101

A lot of Brides are in for a big surprise when they find out how much their dream wedding will cost. Did you know the average wedding costs around $20,000? So what if you have a budget of $4,000 and have a guest list of 150 people? No worries, I can show you  how I am helping my clients have their dream wedding while staying on budget. Each week I will share some information on the planning process of this rustic wedding.

Today I wanted to tell you a little about my clients, Shawn and Nicole, and their wedding venue. Shawn and Nicole have been dating for about four years before Shawn popped the question. On the first night of a 30 day river trip, Shawn  dropped to one knee during sunset in front of a toasty fire and asked Miss Nicole for her hand in marriage. After screaming YES, the couple smoked cigars  and had cocktails with their river friends to celebrate their engagement.

This adventurous and fun-loving couple wanted a venue that represented their creative and wild side so they decided to have the wedding at Solace Ranch. Solace Ranch  is nestled in the mountains outside of Wells, Nevada.  Shawn's parents built the ranch out of reused and recycled materials. This unique space is a masterpiece and holds a special place in Shawn and Nicole's heart. To see what their wedding venue looks like please check out Solace Ranch at:
