A serene little Idaho farm was the scene for a summer's early afternoon, joy-filled Farm Chicks Style wedding.
The bride wore a vintage cotton dress.
Twinkly lights and a fancy chandelier were all that were needed for the barn, where the ceremony was held.
An old farm truck became the stage for the bluegrass band.
A bridesmaid's bouquet.
The groom's and groomsmen's bowties, handmade. Herbs were used for true country boutonnieres.
A hearty breakfast was served, including waffles, eggs benedict in mini cast-iron pans, fresh fruit, orange juice rosemary sippers, french toast stacks with berries and cream, miniature quiche, pancake stacks with fresh berries and syrup, and ice-cold milk.
The tables were adorned with fresh flowers, plates topped with fresh herbs, and homemade napkins were placed at each setting.
Delicious desserts included a homemade butter cake, a crepe cake, and miniature bundt cakes.
The truck stage was the perfect spot for the bouquet toss.
Guests were treated to a tea station for a takeaway treat.
And everyone lived happily ever after….
This wedding story was created for the book, Stylish Weddings. You can find the entire story, including how to make the bow ties, potato-stamped napkins, dessert flags, farm bucket cake stand, Serena's Butter Cake, Orange Juice Rosemary Sippers, swizzle sticks, tea station, and tea bag takeaways all in the book.

Gratefully it was pleasant and near Starbucks. I do need to confess to asking the person in the Starbucks drive-through what "Frosted Lemon Cake" was… "like, is it served chilly?", "uh, no, it has good to beat all". Right. Duh. I attempted to clarify that it had an alternate name in Canada, yet it just couldn't be fixed.
