Jen and Doug - Devils Thumb Ranch






What do you get when you mix 2 parts love, 6 parts favorite vendors and 1 part beautiful venue? Jen and Doug's incredible wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch.

An hour before the ceremony, I walked into Jen's Lodge Room and asked her to make a call on weather. As the lightning blasted into the meadow, Jen simply smiled and said "well that answers that!" The staff at the Ranch had the Broad Axe Barn reset in a matter of minutes (so impressive!) and we moved the ceremony indoors. Although a light sprinkle fell, by the time the ceremony was over, the clouds cleared and were able to have cocktail hour on the deck.

For the decor, we built everything off of reclaimed wood (the boxes were made from the floorboards in my first house!) purple and green flowers and a great western font. Personalized wooden nickles were everywhere and the custom coasters were a hit! Did I mention that I think Jen bought every candle in the state of California and the room absolutely glowed.

We had the good fortune of working with Paula @ Teacup, Bella Vita Salon, Tiffany and CR of Brinton Studios, Matt from Elite DJ, Charity from Wedding and Event Sitters and both of us (Kara and Rami)from Pick Me! were on site for this one!

And last week we received the kindest thank you note from Jen and Doug. It made us both laugh out loud. Thank you again for trusting the details of the day with us. We can't wait to hear about Alaska!

Pick Me is so excited to see that our first wedding of the season at Devils Thumb Ranch is the wedding featured on the Ranch's website! Mark and Annie could not have been a more wonderful couple (maybe I am a little biased, but I LOVE just about everyone from Chicago!!!) and the pictures from CR and Tiffany Brinton of Brinton Studios not only captured the fun and the love that these two share but also the beauty of the Ranch!

Some of our favorite picts of the day and check out the website!
