There’s something so special about a wedding hosted on family land, and this one was no exception. Held at the bride’s family ranch in Sheridan, Wyoming, this Western-inspired Wyoming ranch wedding was the perfect blend of elevated rustic charm, muted tones, and intentional, meaningful design. Contributing to this heartfelt day was an honor. We made sure the custom invitation suite and day-of details reflected both the stunning location as well as the couple’s story and vision.
Both the ceremony and reception took place outside under the vast Wyoming sky. A gorgeous reception area was created on the property. Wood framing constructed a U-shape design with a fabric ceiling where tables sat underneath, allowing guests to sit outside gathered around beautifully decorated tables while taking in the breathtaking mountain views.
Custom Wedding Invitations
We knew from the start that this invitation suite needed to reflect the feel of the ranch location: rustic yet refined, full of character and thoughtful craftsmanship. We started with black ink letterpress and included a custom embossed raised mountain-scape on the invitation pocket to pay homage to the epic mountains at the venue. The views were really something to behold and these little invitation details helped guests know what to expect from the very first look. First impressions really are everything!
To hold the suite and perfectly stacked insert cards together, we created a custom branded leather tag with a mountain design that wrapped around the invitation with a leather cord as a nod to the family’s ranch lifestyle. The same mountain design on the leather tag was also used in the monogram on the invite. Envelope calligraphy added a layer of elegance, and vintage postage gave the suite that classic-inspired finish we love. Oh, and did we mention the handmade paper envelope liners? Because texture was the main character here. The entire suite was a tactile dream.
We also included vintage Sheridan, Wyoming postcards for the couple’s welcome bags to guests. A small but thoughtful touch that celebrated their hometown and welcomed guests right away.
Day-Of Wedding Details
The design didn’t stop at the paper goods. We carried the Western elegance through to the wedding day, beginning with stone table numbers that blended seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The white menus we made were tucked into a soft, suede leather napkin, keeping things layered with texture while tying into the theme.
The bar signage was another amazing detail, featuring wood and leather that carried the elevated Western aesthetic through cocktail hour and beyond.
We also had the honor of creating a custom bar sign with pressed florals for the night-before celebration, bringing in a soft, romantic element to the evening.
This family ranch was the perfect venue for the couples’ elevated western-inspired wedding. From start to finish, this wedding honored the location, their family, and the couple’s elegant, yet rustic and natural wedding vision. It was an incredible honor to create invitation suites and day of details to bring their wedding dreams to life.
