Heather and Ryan’s Rustic New York wedding full of Personal Touches

Wow it’s Friday already! how on earth did that happen so fast? this week has just wizzed by! To end the working week I have a gorgeous rustic, DIY wedding for you all the way from West Shokan which is 2 hours away from New York, and I LOVE it!
The gorgeous couple are Heather and Ryan who were married on 17th september at the beautiful Ashokan Dreams. The stunning venue is a historic Dutch barn overlooking the Ashokan Reservoir, with panoramic views of the mountain and reservoir. It is situated in a quiet country setting which makes it perfect for any wedding. Isn’t it just amazing!

It’s such a gorgeous wedding shot beautifully by  Sasha Felix. It’s full of so many pretty things, a wonderful collection of rustic outdoor decoration mixed with some beautiful vintage collectables. The setting is amazing but aren’t the couple Heather and Ryan so cute together, I am loving Ryan’s outfit and the utter joy when they are pronounced man and wife is just priceless!

The wedding is full of amazing DIY features and Vintage treats that Heather and her family worked hard on pulling together
Heather tells us a bit more about all the personal touches she added to the wedding

  • Decoration: We mixed clear and blue Mason Jars that we bought at local yard sales. We then picked wild flowers. The vintage tins, vintage vases and vintage table runners all bought and collected locally and through family.
  • Table numbers: We used little wood pieces painted black and wrote numbers on them with chalk. We tied the numbers using twine and old fashioned clothes pins.
  • Photo Booth: We bought a fuji mini Polaroid camera and set up photo area for friends and family. We bought a wooden frame from a local flea market and strung it with twine for the photo booth backdrop and bought paper moustaches, lips and glasses from Etsy
  • Photo Area: Using an old window we made a collage of old photo’s of us throughout the years, mainly high school and college. We then picked old frames and had family wedding photo’s also displayed
  • Favours: we used local honey from West Shokan, used them for take home gifts and table assignments. The tags for the honey were stained with tea and handwritten
