About

Hi!  Rachel here, the wanna-be cowgirl behind the brand, Western Waynes.  What started as a dream while working for another brand in Ocala, FL came to life in October 2025 when I launched my first website.

The mission behind the brand is to partner with other western-inspired small businesses to source their items and take them on the road as I travel to horse shows and expos all over the country.  I deeply value and respect American artists, makers, and creators, and am so grateful to be able to offer their quality work in spaces they may not have the opportunity to be in.

A few fun facts about me- I grew up riding Western Pleasure horses at a barn local to where I grew up, and adopted my first horse at age 26.  Smartie is an American Mustang who quite literally changed my life.  The power and bond of a relationship with a horse is REAL. 

My home base is in South Georgia with my incredible boyfriend, two stepdaughters, and 50+animals on a 5 acre homestead.

When I have the time, I like to journal, and one day hope to write a full blown fiction book (about horses of course).

When I'm not on the road for work I'm either at home doing farm chores, or running around with the kids at school events, dance practices, and all the other fun things they like to do. 

If you love all things western like I do, let's be friends!  Give our social media pages a follow and let's connect!  I'm so happy you're here.
