Timeless Beauty
I ran across this here. This dress is timeless in its beauty. A beautiful shot of Jacqueline Bouvier’s wedding dress when she married Senator John F. Kennedy in 1953
Vineyard Wedding
Samantha and Bryan were married October 23, 2010 at the beautiful Page Springs Vineyard. After ten years together and two beautiful children, Bryan and Samantha decided to tie the knot. The wedding celebration was full of love and small details that reflected the couples love of family, friends, good food and great wines. Not being cake lovers, the couple passed up the traditional and instead had a pie table. Family members made beautiful and delicious pies that were a hit with all the guests. The estate style seating looked beautiful among the estate vineyards. Congratulations Samantha and Bryan.
Engagement Shoot at Airstream Ranch
I saw this engagement shoot by Jessica Charles of Jessica Charles Photography and just love them. Airstream Ranch is in Dover, Florida. Head over to Jessica’s blog to see the rest of this fun and unusual shoot.
Summer at Tlaquepaque
Anna and Raul celebrated their marriage this summer at Tlaquepaque. The quaint courtyards, reminiscent of a Mexican village was the perfect backdrop for this vibrant wedding. The Texas couple chose bright colors that were perfect in Red Rock Country. The groom’s grandmother made dozens of Biscochitos; the traditional New Mexico sugar cookie dusted with cinnamon sugar. Being a New Mexican; they were a hit with me. Everyone was in a festive mood and danced the night away.

Sedona Wedding Cakes
Award winning wedding cake artist Donna Joy of Sedona Sweet Arts has done it again. This is such a fun, whimsical and beautiful cake. The cake is inverted and custom made for the bride and groom. The bride has allergies so Donna made the top tier of non-dairy hazelnut latte. Yummy. The sides are adorned with sugar paisleys and dots and the fan top from sugar. The adorable bride and groom penguins were provided by the bride. Donna specializes in making delicious gluten free and dairy free wedding cakes. This cake makes me smile!
