The bride was barefoot, the groom had on flip flops until he saw her feet and then kicked his sandals to side. The cake was "naked" and covered in fruit. The florals were stunning without being distracting. No wedding party, just a cute little mister and three precious little girls. The reception was relaxed, with the only scheduled event being the cake-cutting. 
This wedding smiled in the face of tradition and crazy schedules and was simple: full of love, joy, and family. I was honored to be a part of such a pure and lovely day. I asked Breanna how the two met ~

"Bryan and I have been together about 5 years. A mutual friend introduced us about 7 years ago and we hung with the same group of people. Ever since we started dating 5 years ago we've been best friends. Three and half a years ago we found out I was pregnant. I was so scared to tell him! I invited him over for dinner and after dinner I just started bawling my eyes out still not able to tell him, lol. After I finally got the words out "I'm pregnant", I was relieved to see him smiling and he reassured me everything would be alright. It's been more than alright. He's an outstanding father and my best friend. Although, marriage still wasn't in our plans. He completely surprised me last valentines day when he actually made the plans and booked the reservation! He took me to fossil Rim Wildlife Center and we stayed overnight in a luxury tent. We were sitting outside of our tent watching the sunset surrounded by wild animals and loving life. He proceeded to get down on one knee and propose. I was ecstatic and shocked all at the same time! He even had a ring and everything lol! Within a couple of weeks I had heard about the Barn At Twin Oaks ranch and I called and booked their soonest available date. Everything from the decor to the flowers to the food to the Photography was perfect! I couldn't have imagined it any better."

The happy family and their closest family and friends drove up from Texas to Dardanelle, Arkansas to have a gorgeous wedding at The Barn at Twin Oaks Ranch  to celebrate becoming one. They had customized drinks just for their reception and a surprise firework exit waiting for them to end the night with a bang!
