October 12, 2009
A girl may spend her single life dreaming about the special day she'll utter the words, "I do." Being raised by high school sweethearts, I learned firsthand the many special ways a couple can keep their love burning strong for over 30 years: home cooked family dinners, walks in the park and impromptu dances to old country love songs. These romantic moments instilled a twang deep in my heart.
One day, when that perfect man manages to lasso my affections, we'll have a wedding that celebrates the folks who taught me about true love and the importance of honoring passed down country traditions. It'll be a simple wedding, with plenty of handmade touches, a borrowed family heirloom, a worn piece of denim as our something blue — and of course, lots of lace and boot scootin' boogie.
The Etsy Finds below highlight just a few handmade and vintage pieces that will give your guests somethin' to talk about for years to come.
