Tara and Curtis - Colorado Mountain Wedding

I will admit it. I love Facebook. I love "seeing" old friends and catching up with people out of the blue. So when I received some of these pictures posted on my page from a wedding we did 3 years ago, it made my day. Here is what the email said . . .

"Thanks Kara! I checked out your Web site and I am THRILLED that your business seems to be doing so well! I so loved my wedding flowers, and I love your more recent work too! If you ever need a reference, feel free to use my name. Hope you guys are well up there and still lovin the mountain life - we're jealous! Tara"

Tara and Curtis took a chance on us when we were just hitting our stride and finding our design style. We were so lucky to work with Jenna Walker Photography and Angie from Sapphire Celebrations on this gorgeous day. Thanks for taking a chance on us and we can not wait to help you with one fantastic anniversary party!

Leah and Rich - Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

Leah and Rich's wedding last weekend at Devils Thumb Ranch was gorgeous, simple and fun. And Leah was getting married outside - come hell or high water - the ceremony was happening OUTSIDE. Luckily for us, the universe agreed, the rain and snow were kept at bay (possibly by sheer force of will on Leah's part) and the sun even appeared for the 15 minute ceremony. One of my favorite parts of the decor (all bamboo and orchids) - Leah's bouquet. She gave me free reign to run with it and create something unique.



Yep, it's a Ranch. A gorgeous Ranch. With running horses. And wild clouds. And WHAT IS THAT? Yes, a friendly (??) neighborhood fox strolled up to the ceremony site and decided to watch the wedding. It's a ranch . . .








And the goldfish on the bar? Started as a joke - but why not? They worked with the color palatte. As always, CR and Tiffany of Brinton Studios did another beautiful job (and I am just glad that Tiffany was not killed by the bull that stalked her after she hopped in the paddock to get the horses running...seriously) Thanks again to Leah and Rich and your fantastic families for making this wedding so much fun. Mrs Bluestein, is the offer to come to Passover still good??

Tessa and Michael's Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

Tessa and Michael's wedding last Saturday at Devils Thumb Ranch was the perfect way to launch our summer wedding season. This couple (who I actually met face to face 3 days prior to the big day) found all of us (Pick Me, Brinton Studios, Devils Thumb and Teacup) online, took a leap of faith and booked - site unseen! Although this Texas couple was a tad suprised by the amount of snow on May 1 (who are we kidding - we all were) they took it all in stride and had fun with it. Tessa and Michael were fearless - taking pictures at the stables (I adore the one on the wagon) and hiking out across the snowy field to the fence.

Tessa and Michael, thank you for finding us and trusting us for your floral design and coordination. My only regret was that I wasnt able to join your guests for a sassy game of flip cup after the reception. I can only imagine how much fun it was (your families are the best!)

I wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness.

Love this Day

Julie and Andre - Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

Julie and Andre's Monday Devils Thumb Ranch wedding last August was one of the best weddings I have ever been involved with. This couple is so beautiful and thoughtful - I started crying at our first meeting (and then proceeded in telling them that I would do just about anything to help - just to be involved in this day).



The entire wedding had 27 guests and 13 of them were under the age of 10 (including Julie's adorable son and daughter). We were able to design 2 parties - one for the kiddos on the deck and a dinner party in the Timberhouse after the kids went to the cabins (with babysitters, of course!). Again, my apologies to the babysitters because I went a tad bonkers overdoing the candy bar.




Instead of a traditional flower girl, Julie and Andre included every child at the wedding with Julie's daughter leading the way, throwing petals as high in the air as possible. She then turned around and ran up to the deck to escort her Mom down the aisle. That was when I, the wedding planner, burst into tears . . .again . .



For the adult dinner, we created a kings table in the Timberhouse and filled the center with mono-blossom arrangements in brightly colored glass. A brown runner was added to the center of the table and every free inch was covered in candles.




I was so lucky to work with Jenna and Matt of Jenna Walker Photography on this wedding. As always, they outdid themselves with their incredible work. And on a personal note, I was standing next to Jenna when we saw Julie's son throw the red balloon in the air - immediately Jenna RAN out into the meadow (when she sees the moment happening - it is pure magic) while I untied the rest of the balloons from the kids table and ran them out to the meadow. The end result was one of my favorite wedding pictures of all time.

Julie and Andre, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your wedding day. You two reminded me why I love weddings. I wish your entire family a lifetime of love and happiness.

Maggie and Nick Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

Maggie and Nick's Devils Thumb Ranch wedding was an absolute joy to work on. Rami worked with Maggie to create an all white floral palatte - Maggie collected vintage glassware (collected here means borrowing, begging, thrift stores, friends houses, etc!!). Each table was built off a mono-blossom theme with one color (but sassy various styles) glass.

And the anemones in March - WOW! Stunning . . .



We wired and hung orchids mixed with crystals from candelabras. When the barn doors opened as Maggie walked up to Nick - absolutely gorgeous! It really is one of my favorite parts of any wedding. The anticipation on the grooms face turning into sheer love and joy. Nothing beats it!


Paula's (from Teacup) yummy cake was one of the hits of the evening. Look out when Maggie has the knife!

Both Maggie and Nick have been missionaries, so this particular wedding was not full of drinkers. Devils Thumb created a coffee bar that warmed everyone up.







I think they "loved this day!"


CR and Tiffany Brinton (of Brinton Studios) have once again made DTR look new and amazing. Maggie and Nick, thank you for trusting us with the details of your special day. You two are truly as on the beautiful inside as you are on the out (and you kind of look like 1940's movie musical stars). We can not wait to see you next time you are visiting. XOXO

Christine and Dave Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

I just got these gorgeous photos of Dave and Christine's BBQ wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch. The fantastic couple was beautiful inside and out - and the day was captured perfectly by Steve Z Photography. (Another incredible Colorado photographer who makes me reconsider EVER bringing my own camera . . .my pictures dont even come close to this!!!) Congrats to a couple who had this much fun (and included their adorable dog - gave out cowboy hats and belt buckles - and whose friends and families were as kind as the couple) Happy (almost) anniversary to you both. Thank you for trusting Pick Me with the details of your big day. We wish you a lifetime of love and happy . . .
