Sedona Golf Resort Wedding

Heather and David, San Francisco Bay area residents celebrated their wedding at Sedona Golf Resort this fall. After nine years together, David proposed to Heather at the top of Bear Mountain last year.

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!

Sedona Wedding

Randi and Michael were married at beautiful L’Auberge de Sedona resort. 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.

Beautiful Letterpress Invitations on a Budget

I have always loved beautiful paper and have bought and collected handmade papers for many years. So I was really happy when I was contacted by Craig and Alexandra of Aerialist Press. Their business was started with their love of paper and design and finding it difficult to find a letterpress suite for their own wedding at an affordable price. They bought their own press and designed and printed an invitation suite for their wedding. They loved the process so much they decided to offer their service to brides with an eye for detail, design and beautiful paper at a price they can afford. I think you will love their work as much as I do. Visit their website and blog and you will get a sense of this delightful couple, who they are and the beautiful invitation suites they create.

I love the map below that Alexandra and Craig created for their guests, marking their favorite wineries and vineyards with wine bottles.

Love the detail in these maps
