Summer Brilliance

Summer is here with a burst of color. Sharalee and David eloped to Sedona recently. They chose the fabulous Lodge at Sedona for their stay and held their ceremony on the lush lodge grounds. Sharalee decided against convention and wore this bright, purple/magenta and ivory dress. I love the purple shoes. Sharalee and David were fun, playful and relaxed. The Chicago couple were happy to be in beautiful Sedona.

A Good Ending to 2009

This is our last wedding in December 2009. Our beautiful couple decided to elope to the serenity of Sedona after their guest list reached somewhere near 600. They were very happy to enjoy the moment, take in the beauty and peace of a winter at Red Rock Crossing and share the vows they wrote to each other. They will celebrate in the spring with a grand party for friends and family in their new home.

Congratulations Tara and Brent. Images by Pamela Duffy. Wedding by Van Damme Weddings Flowers by Ken Heflin at Events by Showstoppers and music provided by Magdalena Wolf.

A Quiet Elopement

Although facing some pressure with deadlines to complete paperwork before Ron’s deployment; Ron and Dallas knew they wanted to be married in Sedona’s serene and magical environment. Ron and Dallas were married in a quiet and beautiful ceremony on Oak Creek. The couple exchanged vows they wrote to each other on a perfectly clear Sedona fall day.
Pamela Duffy captured the day’s images and Bill Barnes played guitar. We at Van Damme Weddings are so proud of the men and women who are serving our country with such honor and sacrifice. This will be Ron’s third deployment. Pamela Duffy will be going to Phoenix to photograph Ron in uniform as he says goodbye to Dallas at the airport. Pamela is working on a photographic project depicting service men and women and their families.
