Not only can Arkansas couples get married at the gorgeous Legacy Acres venue located in Conway – they can also lease wedding day rentals from its sister company, La La Land Events.

These rental items are not exclusive to Legacy Acres venue, they can be rented and brought to any venue in the state (and out!). The Social Streamer, a signature Airstream rental, can be used as a bar, dessert pop-up bar, photo booth and more. Ring for a Drink is the perfect rental for couples wanting an immersive and exciting cocktail (or mocktail) experience for their guests. All you have to do is simply ring the bell and a hand will appear with the cocktail of your choice!

The 6,000-square-foot estate in Cabot isn’t enough for the owners of Bella Terra Estate – they have big plans for the venue in 2025—and we can’t wait!

Bella Terra has it all – a venue, seemingly unlimited amounts of linens, glassware and more rentals, plus all-inclusive packages for Arkansas couples who don’t want to sweat the details. But they are hungry for more (and so are we!).

Owner and operator Jennifer Wallace has announced the expansion of the estate with a new, open-air chapel coming to weddings near you in 2025. Construction begins in January 2025. Not only that, but they are also adding a Zen Garden for peaceful mornings of the wedding.

+ Hire our new favorite vendor, Love That Social – Wedding Content Creation!

Love That Social creates memorable wedding content

Bailey Stockfish says she fell into the wedding content creation industry and hasn’t looked back ever since. Bringing over four years of experience in the marketing industry, she knows how to create timeless videos and content for Arkansas couples who want to share their day on social media.

Why are couples hiring content creators? More and more, couples with social media want to share their day from a “behind-the-scenes” point of view (in unique and special ways), and love getting to see moments from their big day while they wait to get galleries back from photographers.

What is content creation? We interviewed three more content creators in our Fall/Winter 2024 issue. Read here.

Patti Boger has dreamed of being a wedding planner since she was 14 years old. As a single parent and recently graduated with her bachelor’s degree, Patti’s ready to make that childhood dream a reality! Introducing, Boger Wedding Co., the newest wedding planning business located in Northwest Arkansas. 

“I form close, meaningful relationships with my brides, often becoming their go-to person in moments of need, or simply for some fun,” Patti said. 

Patti has enjoyed collaborating with other vendors across the state, and finds the Arkansas wedding industry inspiring. “Everyone is so creative and brings something special to the table,” Patti said. “I firmly believe there’s enough success to go around, and I’ve always made it a priority to cheer on and support small businesses in any way I can.”

What sets Patti apart from other Arkansas wedding planners? Her local roots, work ethic and deeply ingrained values. Her father, a cowboy who owned 50-plus acres of land, taught Patti grit and the value of hard work at a young age. 

“Owning my own business and creating a successful career is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done,” Patti said. “This is just the beginning, and I’m incredibly grateful for the journey so far.”
