The Bride Lindsey Garner, 27, a freelance design consultant The Groom Billy Iverson, 27, an analyst at a real estate development company The Date September 10 With Western elegance in mind for their fall nuptials, Lindsey and Billy set romantic decor elements against a rustic ranch backdrop. A soft palette of ivory, pink and peach, along with vintage-inspired details, helped solidify the look.

The couple nixed the idea of escort cards and wrote guests' seat assignments on mirrors set in vintage frames.
Paper-doll cutouts of the couple topped one of the fruit pies, which they served in place of cake.
Late-night revelers were treated to roasted s'mores (as well as a cigar bar).
White terra-cotta pots turned votives, wooden planters and Mason jars brought homespun charm to the dining room.
Fun conversation starters encouraged guests from both sides to share their memories of the couple.
The graphic ceremony programs, designed by the bride, were printed on card stock and displayed in an antique apothecary drawer.
An ethereal arch adorned in greenery framed Lindsey and Billy as they exchanged vows with Vail Valley in the background.
Guests posed with cowboy-themed props in the couple's quirky photo booth.
Fine-dining-inspired, illustrated paper placemats put a cheeky spin on the traditional table.
Lisianthus stems added a vintage touch to Lindsey's bouquet of garden roses, anemones and ranunculus.
The maids' arrangements of tea roses, dusty miller and other blooms shared the same soft palette as the bridal bouquet.
Billy's sheriff badge (a prewedding gift from Lindsey) lent his ensemble a personal, playful touch.
Wanting both a feminine and effortless look for her bridal party, Lindsey chose short lace sheath dresses.
Earthy blooms and soft-ivory linens helped Lindsey and Billy achieve the rustic yet elegant vibe they were after.
