Imagine the breathtaking charm of Yellowstone’s wide-open spaces blended with the rugged coastal beauty of Oregon. That’s exactly the vibe we recreated at Big K Ranch in Elkton, OR—a hidden gem that offers rolling hills, dreamy cabins, and sweeping views. It was the perfect setting for a Yellowstone wedding Vibes kind of day. A love story that’s as wild and adventurous as the couple themselves.
Tell Us About Your Love Story
Their love story began in a modern way—online. His best friend’s wife decided it was time to share her husband and set him up on a dating app, where fate led him to her. It was the tail end of COVID, and with most places still closed, meeting someone organically wasn’t easy. Despite his persistence in asking her out, she kept saying no, preparing for a big move to Florida.
But destiny had other plans. She eventually agreed to a first date—a day at the dog park followed by lunch—and the connection was instant. Within weeks, they fell in love, and when she moved across the country, he followed, proving that love truly knows no bounds. Their story became the foundation for a memorable Yellowstone wedding.
Why Big K Ranch Was the Perfect Location
When it came to planning their engagement session and wedding, his one non-negotiable request was clear: a ranch venue. The Big K Ranch checked every box for their dream Yellowstone wedding.
Located in Elkton, OR, this picturesque venue offers a stunning mix of country charm and natural beauty. The ranch’s lush landscape made the drive there unforgettable, and the cabins onsite allowed family and friends from across the U.S. and Canada to stay and soak in Oregon’s magic.
The ranch’s country-boho vibe perfectly complemented their style, and the intimate atmosphere made their Yellowstone wedding unforgettable.
Favorite Memories: Bride and Groom Moments
Their favorite memory from the day? Sneaking away as newlyweds for an hour of bride and groom photos.
“We didn’t care that our whole party was waiting for us. We danced around, laughed, kissed, and created some of the most beautiful memories together. The time flew by, and those photos are treasures we’ll cherish forever.”
This quiet, joyful escape reflected their adventurous spirit, allowing them to fully soak in their love story amidst the breathtaking scenery of their Yellowstone wedding.
A Hunting Honeymoon
Adventure is at the heart of their relationship. One of their favorite activities is bow hunting—an experience that brings them together in nature, away from the distractions of daily life.
Instead of a traditional honeymoon, they packed their gear and embarked on a “huntingmoon” right after their Yellowstone wedding, spending weeks in the woods during archery season. Talk about a unique way to kick off married life!
Why Desert Born Studios Was Their Perfect Choice
“We had an amazing experience with Sara! From the first phone call, I felt so comfortable. She traveled to Oregon to shoot our Yellowstone wedding and brought so much energy to the day.
She even climbed onto her second shooter’s shoulders to get the perfect shot! Sara fit right in with our family and friends, went with the flow, and made us laugh all day.
Our photos turned out AMAZING—so much so that I can’t even pick a favorite. Sara prioritized our bride and groom photos, and she absolutely delivered. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!”
