Sherwood Park Backyard Wedding | Western Vibes & Heartfelt Moments

Western-Themed Wedding on a Sherwood Park Acreage

Marlene and Marvin’s western-inspired backyard wedding was the kind of day that felt completely true to who they are — warm, relaxed, and full of family connection. Held on a private Sherwood Park acreage surrounded by greenery, it was a celebration stitched together with meaningful details: cowboy hats and boots, a vintage red Mustang, and a quiet moment shared with their horse under the summer sun.

The couple exchanged vows beneath a handcrafted wooden arch, with one of their own family members officiating — making the ceremony even more intimate. Their day continued with easy laughter, heartfelt toasts, and a homemade cake that felt like something out of an old country kitchen — simple, charming, and full of love.

A Relaxed Wedding Day with Western Charm

There’s something special about celebrating at home, especially when your home is a quiet Sherwood Park acreage surrounded by trees and wide-open skies. Marlene and Marvin’s wedding had no tight timelines or rushed moments — just a slow, steady pace that gave space for genuine connection.

From the first look to the walk down the aisle, every part of the day reflected their personalities: joyful, grounded, and deeply in sync. Marvin wore a western jacket and black cowboy hat, while Marlene looked stunning in a lace-trimmed gown that moved beautifully in the breeze.

Horses, Hats, and a Touch of Country

One of the most heartfelt scenes came during portraits with the couple’s nieces white-chocolate-brown horse. It wasn’t staged — just a calm, quiet moment between the three of them, and the kind of memory they’ll never forget. The vintage red Mustang added a bold, playful edge to the gallery, parked along the tree line and ready for a sunset photo op.

The entire day was a photographer’s dream: tall grass, soft overcast light, denim and leather textures, and a couple who made each other laugh every chance they got.
