Red Wine Kisses and Shots of Whiskey: A Romantic Country-Chic Wedding at Park Winters

There are so many wonderful things to highlight about Sarah + Arch’s wedding! It was such a beautiful fall night filled with so much love, dancing, wine and whiskey. It was a dream wedding come true for the bride & groom. One of the most notable moments from our wedding planning is when Sarah told me “one of the weirdest things I’ve had to get used to, is seeing Arch drink whiskey at 7 AM when he comes home from work.”  (He’s a dedicated RN that works nights!!) Arch loves his bourbon and being the gentle cowboy that he is, always keeps Sarah’s glass filled with red wine. When we started to talk about seating chart ideas and Sarah shared she wanted to do a bourbon + wine bottle seating chart, my heart fluttered. It was the perfect, practically DIY project and such an intentional, personal detail. 

Sarah + Arch were intentional with so many details–from a personal ceremony including poking fun at each other and light hearted jokes to including beer pong games during cocktail hour (PS. those tables were handmade by the groom), and do-it-yourself signage that were made on “wedding planning dates.” Every detail was personally curated to represent the bride & groom’s love story. 

Secondly, it’s important we note that Sarah + Arched hired a DREAM vendor team. Having a dream vendor team makes being a bride and groom so much less stressful and that was very prevalent for Sarah + Arch. They trusted their vendor team to execute their vision beautifully. LeaB Gorgeous made Sarah feel gorgeous from the inside out while Scott + Dana Photography took the most beautiful photos, Blossoms by Lisa created romantic, perfectly toned florals, Palette Cakes made a dessert table as sweet as heaven and lastly the team at Park Winters treated the entire wedding like royalty. 

The last thing to highlight is how much we LOVED that Sarah + Arch chose a seasonal color palette. The burgundy and navy were rich, lush colors representing the fall and looked so beautiful in the Fall sunset during dinner at Park Winters. At Curated by Grace + White we love when the colors change with the season and highlighting them in our wedding designs. This palette and design was a stunning transition to Fall and we hope inspires so many other fall wedding couples!Sarah + Arch–your wedding was so magical and truly a dream to plan alongside the both of you! Every time I see a glass of red wine or shot of whiskey I will always think of you!! <3

Favorite Things:

  1. Sarah and Arch included so many personal details throughout the wedding–I loved that the seating chart was made of wine + whiskey bottles they’ve shared on date nights! <3 

  2. Pranking the Groom with a Ride On Bull Toy because we were unable to get him a real mechanical bull! 

  3. All the Signage was thoughtfully made by the bride!
