The romance of a wedding in the woods cannot be denied. Amie and Thomas hosted their nuptials on a California ranch surrounded by friends and family underneath enormous oak trees. Post-ceremony, they shared their celebration inside rustic barns, dancing into the night. Amie’s sensational lace Inbal Dror wedding dress was the perfect mix of sensual glamour and elegant lace for the event, elevating this woodsy wedding to the next level.

The Ceremony
Our wedding was a short and sweet ceremony held on a beautiful grassy lawn underneath oak trees at sunset.
The Reception
We hosted a vintage, rustic reception held in a renovated barn. Romantic lighting featuring vintage chandeliers hung from the barn rafters. The linens were all handmade by me and the tables were peppered with vintage milk glass vases and green and white florals. The cake topper was handmade by my grandfather.
Amie’s Dress Search
I honestly didn’t try on that many dresses. I’m not a big shopper or a girly-girl and I mostly can be found wearing a t-shirt and jeans. I knew I wanted my dress to have long sleeves so that also limited me to a smaller selection. I actually purchased one dress a little too quickly because that’s how much I don’t like shopping! I was so glad to be done but later realized I jumped the gun. Then I went shopping with three friends and found my dream dress. It was love at first sight and I had to have it.
How Amie Felt in Her Wedding Dress
Perfect, unique and myself.
Why Amie Decided to Sell Her Wedding Dress
I honestly have had a tough year with my health. I knew I wanted this dress more than anything but it was really out of my budget. I knew if I bought it, I would have to sell it so I could keep up with my bills. As much as I’d love to keep it, I know another beautiful woman will love this dress as much as I do and I hope that it finds another home!!
