Area wedding includes pieces from Prairie Chic store

TODAY is the BIG day! Local photographer, Chardy Bayes, who owns Studio 81 Photography, is getting married to Tony Magnett today. Chardy has displayed her vintage pinup photos in the store for the holiday season. Chardy has also been heavily involved with the Tri-County Chamber of Commerce's Think Local First program to encourage buying items available in the local area from local businesses. 
Featured as her centerpiece of her wedding decor is a gazebo setting she purchased at Prairie Chic to go along with her outdoor, country themed wedding! Best wishes to her and Tony Magnett today as they begin their life together. (Photos courtesy of Rose Bayes)

And, for any of their guests in town who need a last minute gift for the bride and groom, we have lots of unique pieces and handmade cards, home decor and memorable gifts to bless them!
