The wild wild West boasts mountain views and a unique atmosphere that is as cinematic as it is romantic. For Grace Osborn and Jason Howard, Brush Creek Ranch near Saratoga, Wyoming, was the ideal spot for their five-day extravaganza. They also knew the best person for the job: lifelong friend of the bride’s family, Kimmylea Konsel-Taylor of LimeLight Expressions. Rallying wedding professionals from 13 different states, Konsel-Taylor turned Grace and Jason’s luxe-meets-western dream into a reality.
The festivities began on Wednesday with a cozy, candlelit cellar dinner paired with the finest vino. Games, breathtaking views and live music performed by country star Charly Reynolds was the lineup for the Thursday evening welcome party. Rich fall tones decorated Friday’s rehearsal dinner accompanied by music from Restless Road and a whiskey fortune teller from New York. Saturday’s wedding day was like something from a fairytale. A floral-lined aisle led to an impressive display of opulent blooms overlooking the Wyoming countryside. A grand glass tent made for the event featured a custom dance floor, a keychain escort card display and clouds of bowering wisteria. A night of dancing ensued as the band Alabama took to the stage, paying homage to the couple’s meeting place and alma mater, the University of Alabama. The jubilation concluded on Sunday with a farewell dinner and a pajama party with Image Entertainment acting as the DJ. From start to finish, Konsel-Taylor crafted one-of-a-kind events that were brimming with personal details and flawlessly reflected the bride and groom.
