Ree Drummond, famously known as the Pioneer Woman, has a joyful milestone to celebrate—her daughter Paige Drummond is getting married.

The wedding is set for Saturday, May 17th, on the sprawling Drummond family ranch in Pawhuska, Oklahoma.

Paige studied at the University of Arkansas, while David pursued his education at Oklahoma State University.

Although their paths didn’t cross in college, they remained friends and shared casual hangouts.

Paige recalls that one memorable night, David took her to a nice steakhouse and asked her to be his girlfriend, marking the official start of their relationship in July 2023.

Their connection deepened rapidly after that moment.

Just over a year later, in August 2024, David proposed to Paige in a heartfelt gesture that thrilled fans.

In his engagement announcement, David wrote, “Been waiting on this for a long time. I love you and adore you, Paige Drummond. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Paige responded with equal enthusiasm, calling David “God’s greatest gift” and expressing her excitement to marry “the love of my life.”

Professionally, David Andersen works as a construction engineer.

His role involves overseeing work sites and managing projects, a career based in Dallas, Texas.

Despite the demands of his job, David has made a point to nurture his relationship with Paige, even while they lived apart.

Paige herself made a significant life change in September 2023.

After working a corporate office job in Dallas, she decided to quit and return to Oklahoma to work on the family ranch as a cattle farmer.

“I realized I didn’t want to be stuck inside all day,” she shared.

“Even though ranch life is hard work, I love being outside and part of something bigger.”

This shift meant that during their engagement, Paige and David maintained a long-distance relationship.

As they prepare for marriage, the couple intends to live together, choosing Dallas for the next few years while David continues his engineering career.

However, Paige made it clear that Pawhuska and the ranch will always hold a special place in their hearts.

“The ranch is always going to be here. I think it’s where we want to end up long term,” she said.
