The light formed a halo around Kate in her stunning dress that shimmered in the sun. She saw her groom for the first time that day in a luscious setting of greenery that made one rethink being in the Arizona desert. The couple came together, seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day, with sweet inside jokes and soft kisses.

The jokesters outdid each other, making the other laugh with each passing comment. Smiling, they fluidly moved through one pose after another, making the photography feel like they lived in front of the camera.

Hour after hour, spending time with the couple felt like the best part of the day. It was a joy to be there on their wedding day and celebrate with them as they tied the knot! A first look with dad, a large bridal party grouping, family formals, and bride and groom portrait time all succeeded the ceremony. After the ceremony, the cocktail hour, husband and wife portraits, and grand entrances kicked off the reception!

Kate and Andrew, surrounded by their family and friends, came to have a wonderful time at their wedding! The high energy on the introductions and entrances transitioned to the hilarious toasts, followed by a big party to celebrate the newlyweds. The bride and groom celebrate the rest of the evening, together with those they loved most!

The Fall surroundings and weather added to the delight of their day, and the stunning scenery at Paradise Valley Country Club was sure not to disappoint. While it maintained its own flavor, this wedding reminded me of the atmosphere at Hailey and Jonathan’s Wrigely Mansion Wedding as well as Jaime and Charlie’s Blackstone Country Club Wedding. Kate and Andrew, congratulations on your beautiful day and I wish you the most amazing marriage moving forward.
