Julie and Patrick were married at the beautiful L’Auberge de Sedona Resort last October. While attending the Thunderbird School of Global Management in Arizona the couple had made several trips to Sedona to hike and fell in love with the beauty of Sedona. Julie and Patrick wanted their travel themed wedding to be unique, comfortable and fun, which it was. It would be the first time Patrick’s friends and family from Germany would be meeting Julie’s friends and family from the States. They also wanted to include their beloved miniature schnauzer, Winston in the ceremony. Winston dressed in a tux acted as ring bearer.

The bride wore a stunning Monique Lhuillier gown and her bridal party beautiful rich cranberry gowns. Guests enjoyed fabulous food and wine and danced the night away.

Although rain threatened the day, the weather held with enough cloud cover for a beautiful day and lovely images captured by Katrina Wallace and Andrew Mejia of Sedona Bride. Family and friends gathered for a ceremony on the green with Bell Rock as their backdrop.  Guests enjoyed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on the patio followed by dinner and dancing.

Heather worked with Margaret of  Van Damme Weddings on a classic, elegant décor with Sedona Red Rock feeling. The bride and groom, avid hikers used Sedona trail hikes as their table names. Showstoppers created table floral arrangements in rich fall colors. The beautiful dessert bar co-designed by Van Damme Weddings and Sedona Cake Contour was a taste treat guests enjoyed during the evening. Congratulations Heather and David!

Their wedding was casual elegance among close friends and family. The bride chose black and white as her colors. The floral was stunning in pinks, creams and shades of light apricot as accent colors.

Tables were designed with low floral arrangements, mercury glass votives and tall silver candleholders. Linens were white with sheer ivory overlays embellished with small floral in white and gold embroidery. The black chavari chairs completed the look. Paper goods were black and white letterpress. Escort cards hung by black satin ribbon from Manzanita tress on alligator juniper bases.

There were so many lovely details in this wedding. An array of colorful pashima shawls that had been collected by the groom’s mother over the year were tied with personalized black ribbon and arranged in a beautiful African basket for the women guests.

Guests dined on exquisite food under paper lanterns on this beautiful fall evening.

The couple was lovely, lighthearted and truly in love. I especially loved that the bride’s eleven-year-old son escorted her to the ceremony site. It was a tender moment.

Thanks to all the talented wedding vendors that contributed to this beautiful, successful and fun wedding.
