Google+ Real Florida Wedding: Elaine + Bruce - Southern Weddings

Southern Weddings

Happy April Fool’s Day!

Small town venues lend a special charm to Southern weddings everywhere, and we just can’t get over how much fun the jean short (“jort”)-wearing guests seem to be having at Elaine + Bruce’s Florida shindig.  CMT was on-hand to document the high school sweethearts’ Southern soiree at the Horse Hole Mud Bog.  The best thing about holding your wedding at a local mud pit?  Ya don’t have to wear shoes!  (Trust us: guests will thank you later when they don’t have to muddy-up their favorite pair of cowboy boots while four wheeling.)  Sure, we love the personalized DIY projects (invitations handwritten on paper napkins plus an oversized beer can archway) the couple wove into their big day, but our favorite detail of all?  The giant matrimonial beer slide that took the place of a traditional aisle.  Fun!  Celebrity Tom Arnold officiated the intimate wedding before guests noshed on a mud-themed wedding cake.  Now, if only we could get Emily to stop oggling the wait staff’s sleek owl-studded tank tops and cute orange shorts…

    Actually, I can totally imagine a shindig like this say in Daytona Beach at the height of Race Weeks (say, the day before Daytona 500). Totally digging the beer cans arch!
