Real Wedding - Jennifer & Erick

The day was December 6^th, 2009.

It was a windy, gloomy, drizzly day in Wimberley, TX. However, that did not stop this amazing couple to have their vintage & rustic Texan style wedding with a little bit of Indonesian touches in the details.

Location : Red Corral Ranch, Wimberley TX, USA

Dress : Amsale
Bridesmaids’ dresses : JCrew
Make-Up Artist : Sarah D. Stopper
Band : The Pictures Band
Caterer : Salt Lick Bar-b-Q
Color Palette : Mustard Yellow, Gray and hint of Navy Blue

After living in Texas for a few years, both Erick and Jennifer wanted to have some Texas style incorporated in their wedding (read: outdoors in a ranch). Thus, with the hope that Texas has mild winters, they decided to have it at Red Corral Ranch with an outdoor ceremony and dinner reception. Unfortunately, two days before the big day, it snowed in Texas, dropping the temperature drastically. Nevertheless, they still went ahead with their original plan. The ceremony was held on a labyrinth that the owners of the ranch had built themselves and the dinner reception was under a big oak tree lit with Christmas trees. It was truly magical.

Jennifer and Erick were particularly creative of their wedding favor. With each favor there’s a tag that said "Monday mornings are hard enough without spending Sunday night at a wedding. Hope these make tomorrow a little easier. This coffee comes from Lampung, Erick's hometown in Indonesia and it's certainly one of the best coffees produced in Indonesia"

Despite the chilly temperature, the food from Salt Lick BBQ warmed the guests’ with so much yumminess at the dinner reception. After the chilly ceremony and dinner reception, everybody went inside the Big Red Barn to continue the party and desserts.

The dessert table was not your typical dessert table; instead, it was filled with traditional Indonesian cakes and a groom’s cake. Jennifer wanted to do something nice for Erick and she ordered a blue cake shaped like the number 3. Apparently, 3 is Erick’s favorite number as it was his basketball jersey number, he was the third child, etc.

Halfway through the party, the bride and groom had a wardrobe change into a traditional Indonesian costume called a ‘kebaya’ for Jennifer and a black suit for Erick. The dance party went well into the night with a special fireworks sendoff for the bride & groom.

We love this wedding for the immense number of details put in by the bride and groom and how they managed to incorporate both Texan and Indonesian styles and still managed
to make it their own. Congrats you two!
