    2 min read

    Time for another real wedding garter feature and this time we are sharing a garter made from family materials! This bride’s beautiful wedding day was filled with tender moments with her groom, friends and family. Their intimate wedding was shared with close friends and family and packed with a whole lot of fun. This is our kind of wedding!


    Jennifer and Jacob exchanged vows and enjoyed a reception on a ranch in Texas. The photographer captured beautiful wedding details of their wedding invitation, wedding rings, and Jennifer’s custom wedding garter made from her mom's wedding dress sleeves. Her classic wedding jewelry paired with some comfortable wedding sneakers shows off this bride’s personality!

    If you want to see more of Jennifer's garter, here are the pictures that we took of her garter with embroidery on the inside.

    Jennifer and Jacob were able to take advantage of their small wedding guest list and spend true quality time with their guests. From the décor to the candid photos, this Texas ranch wedding was all about family and fun. A beautiful wedding photograph of Jennifer’s parents was included in her getting ready images from her wedding photographer. A beautiful touch, especially since Jennifer’s custom bridal garter was made from her mother’s wedding dress.

    Jennifer's wedding garter was custom made from her mother's wedding dress sleeve. Her family garter heirloom featured embroidery on the inside with initials and hearts.

    A beautiful outdoor ceremony under a barn side gazebo set the stage for these two to exchange vows. The reception soon followed in the adjacent red barn, you couldn’t ask for a more picturesque Texas ranch wedding. We love the colorful details from the cake table linens to the balloon arch.


    I’m so excited to share with you these photos from NLEE Images of Jennifer’s wedding day. This beautiful bride’s smile tells the story and we are so happy she was able to share these images with us…
