Vows That Wow — Makenzi & Braden’s Garden Party Wedding at The Bower
Week after week, our team has the joy of receiving and sharing beautiful weddings from across Oklahoma, all thanks to the talented vendors and couples who submit their celebrations to us. Each month, our editorial team selects one standout wedding to spotlight, celebrating a day that shines through its creativity, personality, and unforgettable details. This month, we’re thrilled to feature Makenzi & Braden’s Garden Party Wedding at The Bower.
THE WEDDING DAY
Makenzi & Braden celebrated their summer wedding on June 5, 2026, at The Bower, a beautiful mansion venue located in Edmond, Oklahoma. Their outdoor ceremony took place in the lush gardens, highlighting the venue’s breathtaking scenery. Following the vows, guests transitioned inside The Hall for the evening reception. Floral design was tailored around the bride’s favorite flower, tulips, which were prominently woven throughout the day’s arrangements and decor details. A centerpiece of the reception was a stunning hanging floral chandelier crafted by XO by Haleigh Kenney, serving as the dramatic focal point above a custom dance floor and stage provided by Mood Events. Candles from Mary & Martha Candle Company elegantly illuminated the reception space. The groom and groomsmen wore attire from Allton’s Clothing, a premier menswear store in Edmond. Catering and bartending services were provided by Kam’s Kookery, and Amy Cakes created the classic four-tiered cake. And the couple celebrated with a local registry at BC Clark. It was a truly unforgettable day filled with love, laughter, and lifelong memories for the happy couple and their guests.
ON OUR DAY…
“…my favorite memory has to be the private dance I shared with my husband at the end of the night. It felt so surreal to finally be married as all of the wedding festivities came to a close. In that quiet moment, it really sank in that we had just experienced the best day of our lives, and it was the perfect way to end such an unforgettable celebration.”
