Ranch Wedding – May 20, 2013

I love my job and I especially love doing it in Wyoming. I had the honor of performing a wedding ceremony on a ranch at Slater, WY. A large meadow was set up with hay bales for seating (covered with colorful fabric). The bride and attendants rode into the meadow on a flat bed trailer, hauled by a tractor driven by the bride’s dad. The wedding arch was situated to take advantage of a magnificent view, near Chugwater, WY.

The bride’s attendants wore jean jackets and boots! Instead of a unity candle ceremony, the bride and groom branded a round flat piece of wood! I could go on and on, but you get the idea: everything was ranch themed, including the reception which was also on the ranch.

We were blessed with perfect weather, too.
