Jaclyn and Trey’s Barnyard Wedding

Jaclyn and Trey’s barnyard wedding was elegant, boho, and chic.

Their special day was full of personal touches. Andrea, Jaclyn’s now sister-in-law, surprised Jaclyn with a decked out getting ready room at The Galas Barn private estate.

Trey made the archway that was beautifully adorned with florals for their ceremony. Jaclyn’s aunt made their cake and the bride’s cousin did Jaclyn’s makeup.

From the bride: “I had been planning our wedding long before we got engaged, which I am not embarrassed to admit.

I always wanted to have a very clean, timeless, and traditional wedding when it came to my dress and the overall decor and color scheme. We kept a simple palette or Gray, Sage, blush, white and pops of brass throughout.

If we were asked what theme we went with, we would jokingly say rustic modern (if that’s a thing). When it came to our decor, we really wanted to make the most out of each space rather than have a ton of different areas we had to fill.

So we really focused on our layout of the venue first and how the flow of the guests would be throughout the day. The Galas Barn itself is absolutely beautiful so we knew we didn’t need to do too much to the inside or outside of the barn.

I had always loved the hexagon arch idea that I found off Pinterest and knew I was set on having him build it for the wedding.”

From From the bride: “We really wanted the wedding to be an experience, since we had family coming from all over.

We rented buses from Storer transportation that transported the bridal parties as well as larger busses that charted the guests to and from the hotel to the venue.

This was a small aspect of the day, but looking back was such a cool experience for everyone to be charted out to an unknown barn and upon arrival got to see how beautiful this hidden gem is.

By including a lot of family members to our planning and asking for people’s creativity we had a ton of personal touches throughout.

A few weeks before the big day, we asked a family member to create a “getting ready area” for me which I did not see until the day of.

The space was absolutely beautiful and so special and became our focal point of our photos before the ceremony.

She also incorporated our bridal bouquets around the space to add to the decor which was super effective and simple to do. This was one of my favorite places because so much thought and effort went into it.”
