Reese Witherspoon stayed true to her Southern roots when she wed CAA agent Jim Toth over the weekend.
The Oscar-winning actress married Toth, 40, at her Ojai ranch, which includes a rustic garden and farm boasting horses, donkeys, pigs, goats and chickens, US Weekly reported.
Since we couldn’t be there, the Ministry has instead compiled an (un)official wedding checklist that we believe the bride-on-the-go (or her celebrity wedding planner Yifat Oren) had to manage for the 35-year-old’s second nuptials.

We would have preferred a golden-laced cookie of some sort, but we guess that doesn’t exactly fit the rustic theme. Still, the guests could have gone home with a basket of free-range chicken eggs, no?
