Her radiant look was completed by Aspen Beauty Pro and a soft, romantic bouquet by Palmer Flowers. Meanwhile, the groomsmen embraced the laid-back spirit of the day with pre-ceremony lawn games and laughter.
Personal Touches
Devan handcrafted both the ceremony arch and photo booth backdrop, bringing a personal, rustic feel to the venue. Guests were welcomed with a carrot station to feed the venue’s resident horses, Ty and Fanny—a charming, unexpected treat!
Rain Can’t Stop the Celebration
Though the outdoor dinner had to move indoors due to rain, the mood stayed high. Guests dined, danced, and laughed thanks to Lick Skillet Catering and DJ Connection. The rain passed just in time for the couple’s magical first dance and parent dances under twinkling lights.
A Joyful Finish
From sweet moments on the dance floor to heartfelt toasts and nonstop celebration, Sammie and Devan’s night was full of energy and love—beautifully captured by Melissa Shanley Photography, Jenni Summer Studios, and PHOCO.
