Dream Weddings of Sedona

Love Remembered – A Sedona Wedding with Big Heart

Kate — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 18:45:07 +0000

Chip and Joy met many years ago when they were young, fell in love and married. They were quickly separated by military service during the Viet Nam War. Because of some lost letters and misunderstandings, they divorced, but still loved each other. They each married, had children and years passed, with both of them occasionally wondering what had happened to that love. Eventually, both spouses passed away and one day, Chip emailed Joy with just one word, “Hi.” She quickly responded and a whole new episode began in their love story. After 42 years, they were recently married again at Poco Diablo.

These two were like high school kids in first love. Can’t you see it in their faces? Ah, love!!

With their children in attendance, the happiness was very palpable all around. Sedona weddings are always special, but this one made everyone near tears. Lots of laughter too!

All in all, a perfect wedding day….. (Photos by Janise Witt )

Sedona Wedding, whether Fall or Winter, is Beautiful Warmth and Glory

Kate — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 03:27:30 +0000

Have you been planning a wedding for next spring? Spring is a beautiful time to be married with its bright green leaves and promise of all that is new and a bright life just beginning. However, fall and winter here in Sedona can make a wedding warm, homey and oh so intimate. Picture you and your groom silhouetted against these romantic red spires, sculpted by the sands of time and the rain of the ages. The crystals embedded throughout the land here makes the spiritual resonance elevating and uplifting, as most of the locals will testify. This can make your wedding feel more special than it will anywhere else in the world. We can pull all the details together quickly and easily so you enjoy the process and have exactly what you want.

Imagine yourself walking softly on the crimson rocks in a white velvet dress that is draped romantically, with a faux fur trimmed jacket that frames your face like a queen. What about your groom? Maybe a rich warm fall-colored shirt or jacket; burgundy, gold or a deep blue, blending into the brilliant colors of the local scenery. Your flowers could be sunflowers, chrysanthemums and some colorful fall leaves or brilliant poinsettias for a winter wedding. The seasonal looks are endless. Why wait until spring when the warmth of a fall or winter wedding can be a storybook tale?

And too, winter hot tubs and fall fireplaces can make a romantic and dreamy honeymoon here in red rock country. There is no more romantic place than Sedona in the fall and winter. Start with a cozy, warm wedding and end with that loving Sedona honeymoon that you’ve dreamed of. We can steer you to the B & B with the great stargazing hot tub or the resort with the best jacuzzi tubs by the private window…

Importance of Money in Your Marriage

Kate — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 15:18:46 +0000

Here is a wonderful link to an article in the NY Times about MONEY. You will notice that I capitalized money because it is so important. Along with sex, it is one of the biggest magnets for marital problems. Please talk over your credit history even before you plan your wedding. Include discussions of your spending habits, family attitudes toward money and your expectations in this area. After all, if you don’t talk about it now, it could cost a lot in the future, perhaps in divorce court. This is the time to sort it all out and make your peace and your future plans. Be honest, be open and tell the whole story. For extra help in this area, there are so many experts who will give you a free first consultation.

I wish you lots of love and lots of money too.

A happy wedding day….

Kate — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 19:48:40 +0000

I saw this wonderful ceremony on Huffington Post and knew you would laugh as hard as I did. You may have been afraid of getting the giggles this way, particularly if your groom says ‘waffle-y’ instead of lawfully. He then tries to make it cute by saying, ‘and pancake-y’ which sends his bride into hysterics. Enjoy!

Sedona Weddings on the Creek – Are you ready?

Kate — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 20:43:14 +0000

Jim and Jodie were married August 1 at Red Rock Crossing. This magnificent setting, where our natural red rock cathedral shelters soft water scenes on Oak Creek, is one of the most popular Sedona Wedding sites in our area. You can see why in these beautiful photos:

As Jim slides Jodie’s ring on her finger, “With this ring….,” many of us begin to tear up….

The local picnic crowd enjoyed the wedding too, yet not as much as the family….

Both Jim and Jodie had wonderful emotions showing in this wedding. That’s when you know there is great love too…

That first kiss after they’re married is so special and sweet…..

Can you imagine a more beautiful place to be married? The happy couple is surrounded by shadows and light, reflected in the mountain purity of Oak Creek.

A kiss on Oak Creek with the sunset-highlighted mountains in the background….

Jim, Jodie, her children and her brother and his family after the wedding……. Everyone was so happy…

Got that marriage license signed!!

Later, at Dahl & DiLuca for that wedding dinner……

Soon, Jim and Jodie will be headed for a new life in Belgium and the excitement can be seen in their eyes in these photos. They are tickled pink to be moving together to a romantic place where French food and new scenery will be a whole new honeymoon and living experience. Good luck to them!!

Creative Wedding Ideas on a Knitting Blog?

Kate — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 17:10:35 +0000

Here is a post from an English woman, who made her dress and her flowers. Her father (what a guy!) made her cupcakes, or most of them. She gives lovely pictures and directions of all of it. (Hint: she didn’t knit the dress http://www.xtreme-knitting.com/blog/
