Inside Yellowstone’s Ryan Bingham and Hassie Harrison’s Elegant Western Wedding at the Bride’s Family Home in Texas

The bride’s mother and sisters, along with the couple’s wedding planners at Gro Floral and Event Design, all played vital roles in helping plan and create the perfect wedding. “From the start, Ryan and I just really wanted to create a day that wasn't just a series of events—but a heartfelt experience that centered around emotions, comfort, intimacy, and genuine moments with the people we love the most,” Hassie says. “Every choice was a reflection of us, and getting to witness it all come to life was incredible.”

For as long as Hassie can remember, her family has thrown gatherings—everything from charity events to personal celebrations—and Nathan Johnson from Gro Floral and Event Design has always been their go-to for planning. The bride and groom had a solid feel for the atmosphere they wanted, but turning that vision into reality was another matter. “I knew I wanted Western, but it had to be elegant Western, with tones of worn leather, delicate lace, and a soft, blush color palette,” Hassie says. “Nathan, knowing me for as long as he has, was incredible at this. He intuitively knew which options to present that not only met our vision but elevated it. Honestly, he shaped my dream wedding better than I could have ever imagined.” (Hassie’s mother also contributed ideas: her suggestions included bringing in their family’s longhorn and burro ranch animals for a personal touch.)

The initial inspiration for Hassie’s wedding wardrobe came from the event’s dress code: cowboy black tie. “I actually found two wedding dresses I absolutely loved—a Galia Lahav and Netta BenShabu—and even experienced a bit of a last-minute panic moment trying to decide between the two,” she admits. “That’s when my sister stepped in and said, ‘Why not just do both?’ So that’s exactly what I ended up doing, and honestly, it was just perfect.”

Hassie wore a dress by Galia Lahav that she found while shopping in Dallas with her three sisters at Stanley Korshak—where her mother was a buyer for years—to walk down the aisle at the ceremony. The gown had heavy lace detailing along with corseting and intricate beading. “It was the one the second I tried it on,” she remembers. “My sister Caroline insisted over and over again that I had to walk down the aisle in it.”

Ryan wore a tuxedo by Kiton that Crawford Brock at Stanley Korshak tailored to fit him perfectly. His boots were custom-made by Republic Boots in Texas, and his hat was from American Hat Co. Mackenzie Brittingham designed custom black dresses for the bride’s sisters.

The wedding weekend kicked off the night before the big celebration with a “cowboy cocktail welcome night” at the Crescent Club in Downtown Dallas. “That place holds so many cherished family memories, it was the perfect spot to start our celebration,” Hassie says. “We really went all out with the theme, turning the club into an old-time Western bar complete with a mariachi band, Texas wildflowers, and a great DJ.”

As the evening unfolded, family members and friends stepped up to give toasts and tell stories that had guests moving from laughter to tears (and back again). “We danced and drank into the night—probably a bit more and later than we should have considering the big day ahead—but it set the perfect tone for the rest of the weekend,” Hassie says. “It was the ideal way to begin our wedding festivities, surrounded by all the people we love in a place that feels like home.”

On the day of the wedding, Hassie got ready with her three sisters at their family home, before the couple took photos with their wedding party. “The atmosphere was so relaxed and fun that it completely eased any nerves I had,” Hassie remembers.

Ahead of the ceremony, everyone was greeted in the foyer and garden with shots of Bingham’s Bourbon—a passion project turned liquor brand founded by Ryan. Guests then moved to a stunning cathedral-style tented conservatory, constructed over the existing pool for the ceremony. “It was surreal to see our family home transformed into the venue for our ceremony,” Hassie remembers. “Nathan and his team outdid themselves, making sure every detail reflected Ryan’s and my personality and love story.” Flowers lined the center aisle leading to the platform, where a suspended floral treatment anchored the altar.

The couple’s wedding party was made up of their closest friends and family—including Hassie’s three sisters and some of Ryan’s oldest and dearest friends, who over the years have become an extension of his family. Ryan’s three children followed the bridal party down the aisle, serving as the flower girl and ring bearer, as well as walking their dog down the aisle. “They were such a big part of this day,” Hassie says. “Seeing the joy on their faces truly made the celebration feel complete in every way.”

Ryan escorted Hassie’s mother down the aisle before the ceremony began, officiated by the bride’s close friend Gabriel Hogan. “He had everyone in the room alternating between laughter, tears, and applause,” Hassie remembers. “It was like something out of a fairytale.” The bride and groom opted to write their own vows. “Delivering them was emotional,” Hassie says. “It was hard to hold back tears. My vows were not just promises to Ryan but also to his children. It was a particularly special moment for me, as I got to express to them just how much they mean to me and what an honor it has been to become a bonus mom to them.”

For Hassie, the ceremony can only be described as surreal. “There was a palpable sense of love and energy in the air, a kind of magic that's hard to describe,” she continues. “Seeing generations from both sides of our families, our friends, and especially the children all coming together was such a blessing. And then, there was the moment I locked eyes with Ryan as I walked toward him. Seeing the tears well up in his eyes—it just melted my heart. It was a moment so raw and filled with emotion, it perfectly captured everything we felt about stepping into this new chapter together.”

After the ceremony, the bride quickly changed into a short Netta BenShabu dress featuring intricate detailing and long lace gloves. “I fell in love with it instantly because when else am I going to get a chance to wear a dress like this?” Hassie jokes. Guests moved to the reception tent at the front of the house, designed as a nod to Gruene Hall: Texas’s oldest dance hall. With communal style tables, hardwood floors, and neon lights, the space served as a reflection of the couple’s love for their Western roots, while the stage’s backdrop was a living greenery wall with the phrase “live the best of this life” emblazoned across it—a few of the first words Hassie and Ryan ever shared with each other.

Meanwhile, the menu—which was overseen by Chef Yann Nury—was a spin on classic Texas cuisine, including everything from cornbread and caviar during the pre-ceremony cocktail hour to smoked wagyu ribs, chicken fried steak, and corn on the cob. Wood-fired pizzas were also served food court style from live-action stations in a traveling airstream, and the evening ended with late-night Texas tacos.

After being introduced as a married couple for the first time, the bride and groom did their first dance to an original song of Ryan’s, titled “Automated.” Afterwards, a band called Straight Tequila Night took over and played ’90s country cover songs. “The most special performance of the evening though was by far Ryan’s daughter, whose beautiful piano solo moved everyone to tears,” Hassie says. “It was a magical moment that we will never forget.”

And just when everyone thought the night was winding down, the newlyweds had one more surprise up their collective sleeve. “We ushered all our guests into the backyard, unveiling a ‘cosmic cowboy’ after-party that was really a sight to see,” Hassie says. For this final portion of the night, she changed one last time into an after-party dress, also designed by Netta BenShabu. “I really wanted a dress that was fun to dance in—and this one was probably the most Western of them all, with fringed tassels embellishing the hem,” she explains. “We paired it with a white cowboy hat and cowboy boots.” The ceremony space was completely transformed with Western-themed neon lights, late-night treats, a DJ, and even a disco saddle suspended from the ceiling—an idea that Hassie’s mother came up with. “The highlight, though, was the silent disco,” Hassie admits. “We all had so much fun dancing and laughing all night.”

When the evening finally came to an end, guests lined up along the driveway with sparklers in hand to send the couple off in a classic Cadillac Coupe Deville. “It was such a sweet and perfect capstone to the evening,” Hassie remembers. But the best part was still yet to come. “Despite what appeared to be this magical car ride into the night, we actually just took a quick circle around the block before ultimately slipping back into the house to join the rest of our wedding party as the last ones standing,” the bride says. “We kept the celebration going into the wee hours, dancing in my family’s living room. It was the perfect ending to a perfect night—and honestly, we couldn’t have imagined it any better.”
