but are you even from the country?
I love weddings. I have always loved weddings. If I could have, I would have been a wedding planner. I love the country. I love my horse and being at the barn. So naturally, I want a 'country' wedding... kind of. This explosion of country themed weddings is great for inspiration but it seems like EVERYONE and their brother is having a country wedding. Why?! From what I know, 99% of the people have a country wedding have never even stepped foot inside a barn. So what is their draw to have a country wedding? Could it be they finally understand what we all know and love about barns, farms and the great outdoors? Someone please explain! Don't get me wrong, I love mason jars, and cowboy boots and hay bales at the reception. And all these ideas on Pinterest are making my head spin! But I have to also admit, I feel like it will make my day less special. I always like to be different, and not do what everyone else is doing. Oh well! When you can't beat them join them! XOXO, CB

I agree that everyone is crazy about a country wedding. And country "style". Who knew country would become a "style". It makes those of us, including myself, who wear cowboy boots, jeans, and camo on a daily basis look bad in a way. Like oh you're just trying to be in the in crowd, ummm no I'd wear this no matter what.

Mallory ^ you hit the spot explaining exactly how I am. I wear jeans camo and my boots either cowboy boots or my camo mucks everyday. but I'll be honest since being with my husband I got into shooting, wanting to hunt, fish and be outdoors from the beginning. Before I didn't know much about those activities or wore the camo or boots but now it's my everyday attire and it makes me feel like me. More than how I was before we met. I didn't grow up on a farm or ride horses or any of that but like Mallory said that should define who the person is especially If they didn't grow up in the country. I loved my "country wedding" in my parents backyard wearing my boots under my dress just being me. :)
