We love their hometown love story - it's one of those where two kids grow up blocks from each other, then keep seeing each other in different cities, places, timelines and countries before it all finally clicks and falls into place for them.

We're so glad these two downtown kids found their way to each other. Congratulations, Jacky + Rachel!

The Mannings celebrated with cherished family and friends at an elegant winter reception at The Refinery. Decor was winter white, gold, a little greenery, and a pop of Christmas red - simply gorgeous. And downtown Bartlesville was all decked out for the holidays, an enchanting backdrop for their day.

Newly engaged? Enjoying visions of your perfect day, and what that will look like?

We'd love to let you know about one quiet, private part of our venue that gets rave reviews, and yet many people don't even know it exists. It's the overnight bridal suite which is part of our charming on-site boutique hotel, The Jewel Box Hotel Apartments.

You, your family and bridesmaids deserve a relaxing, cozy, aesthetic space to share on wedding day. Each aspect of all five suites was designed by owner Crystal Sare with your ultimate comfort in mind. And they are absolutely stunning.

Oklahoma weather? No problem! You'll be a short *indoor* walk from your bridal suite to your ceremony, and then your happily-ever-after. And the bridal suite is one of five on-site hotel suites at The Refinery, in addition to a groomsmen's Get Ready Room.
