Texan, rodeo-inspired, classic and refined — a combination we love to bring to life, especially in collaboration with Shannon Rose Events. Janie and Jake’s wedding day was the perfect representation of their careers (which brought them together) as a Bronc rider and reporter for the Cowboy Channel, with endless canyon-inspired hues of burgundy, taupe and mustard, and no shortage of thoughtful personal touches.

The setting for the outdoor ceremony—the Palo Duro Canyon—was picturesque all on its own, but we designed ground arrangements full of the canyon’s warm tones, which lined the aisle and formed a semi-circle up at the altar. Janie arrived at the ceremony in a horse-drawn carriage — a perfectly fitting entrance.

After the ceremony, a cocktail hour was held in a teepee tent setup with a circular bar centerpiece that we surrounded with floral arrangements, and a horseshoe installation to frame the seating chart made another statement. Both pieces leaned into the same red and rust tones with touches of softer mauve and pink flowers, along with plenty of lush greenery that helped accentuate the horseshoe shape.

A clear tent, decked out with plenty of decor from neon signs to rustic chandeliers, made for the perfect reception space that still allowed everyone to experience the canyon setting. We designed several statements — an oversized floral arch framed the entrance, with longhorn horns (a touch from the bride’s family) hung in the center, and a large branch-and-flower arrangement at the welcome lounge area.

The tables continued the rusty color palette, with an extra-lush garland designed for the head table that trailed down to the ground. Other tables held arrangements in terracotta bowls, or floral and candle clusters. We were able to play off of elements of the natural surroundings, which made the space feel even more immersive while still elevated.

A couple other floral touches included accents for the cake and a collar for Janie’s horse. Her bridal bouquet featured all of the best of the flowers and texture seen throughout the event, in burgundy, mauve and touches of yellow.
