Invitations To Make You Swoon
I love beautiful paper and was so impressed with these custom invitations and accessories from Fleur Creations. Maria Fuller is founder of Fleur; a couture, custom designer of invitations, save the date cards, programs, menus and seating charts. Her line truly brings a wedding theme together in a way that says, yes, this is us.
Je ne sais quoi
My friends Helen and John are in Paris now. Living the life and hanging out for a few months. They took these photos on the street; window-shopping never looked so good. Lovely wedding fashion in Paris! Ouah
And The Rain Came
This Memorial Day Week-End was one of the wettest I remember in a long time. Dan and Trisha wanted to wait out the downpour to have their ceremony out side. We waited a half hour and again another half hour. There was a break in the rain, so we went outside. It was beautiful for half the ceremony and then the rain came down again. We ended up finishing the ceremony inside. Dan and Trisha were great sports, laughed, and enjoyed the moment. Jamie Burnett of Burnett Photography captured these beautiful images. See her blog for more photos. Janelle and her crew at Sedona Golf Resort were experts in handling the moment-by-moment changes. Aubry and Lisa from Its Your Party Entertainment provide music for this lively crew.
The Sky’s The Limit
I was stunned when our own Andrea Blautt of Sedona Cake Couture sent over her link to this impressive wedding creation. Check out Andrea’s blog to seem more of her incredible wedding cakes. She is a true artist.
A Few Scattered Roses – Not A Chance
Our friends and designers extraordinaire Jim Bullock and Ken Heflin at Events by Showstoppers create some of the most beautifully designed wedding floral settings you can imagine. Stop by their blog and see their incredible list of preferred Sedona vendors as well as some of their beautiful designs. My favorites are the Rose Petal Carpets. Outstanding! Ken and Jim can transform your venue into a fairy tale setting.
Glamour of the Old West
The casual glamour of the Southwest draws couples from all parts of the country and world. Here’s one of my favorite weddings by Van Damme Weddings as well as this post from Once Wed that depicts how much fun a Desert wedding can be. Here is a link to OnceWed’s Blog post

As professional wedding planners based in Sedona, Arizona, we specialize in creating a full range of weddings. They are beautifully elegant, often simple yet elegant, sometimes small and casual. They are always personal, romantic and – most of all – fun and as stress free as possible.
In my years of planning beautiful weddings and events, I have learned so much from some very creative brides and vendors that I would like to pass some of this on to you. If you are thinking about getting married in this beautiful and magical place called Sedona, I think you will enjoy some of my couples’ stories and beautiful photos. I am also excited to share wedding trends, new finds, and fabulous vendors. Hope some of these posts will inspire your creativity for your wedding celebration.
If you have not been to Sedona before, its beauty will stun you. The small city sits in the heart of central Arizona. Its 120 miles north of Phoenix and 30 miles south of Flagstaff, at an elevation of 4500 feet above sea level. A landscape like no other, the red rock canyons and cliffs, brilliant blue sky, and evergreen pines frame weddings in spectacular natural beauty.
I believe that beautiful weddings are about the details and these can be obtained with an eye for beauty and a style that says, “This is me”
