Samantha and Brett Amazing Wedding at Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson

Introducing Samantha and Brett as Husband (hubby) and Wife (wifey-poo).  You may remember them from  one of our all time favorite engagement sessions in the U of A Football Stadium.  Not to be out done by that, we scored another Touchdown with this wedding. 

They were wed at  a diamond in the rough type of venue here in Tucson - Tanque Verde Ranch.  We lllllllllllllllloooooooovvvvve the grounds at this location.  They have the rustic scenery, horses, cowboy theme and desert backdrops.  But then you turn the corner and are WOW'd by this pond and greenery with a quaint little bridge.

The day started out with the girls decked out in their bridal gear.

Getting ready, I caught this shot and has to be one of my favorites of the day.  The little Flower Girl makes the whole shot.

The men are handsome and debonair.  Love the high-5 going on in the background.

This is one of the groomsmen and ironically a brother of one of our past Brides.  He is a baseball player in the Milwaukee Brewers Baseball organization.  My hubby Jon is an avid sports fan and has been following his career since the last wedding when they met.  So Jon being a sports nut happened to have a spare baseball in his truck.  He had him sign it to give to the groom as a gift.....who knows, he could be a Hall of Fame'r one day.  (OK Famer is probably not a real word - but you know what I mean)

Lovin the attitude in front of the Dog House.  The Dog House was an old saloon back in the day.  It has since been turned into a museum.

Samantha and Brett and some REALLY cute ideas.  First this wagon with the sign that says here comes the bride that pulled the little flower girl down the isle during the wedding.  Following the ceremony, the sign was turned around and then said Just Married (you will see later in this story)

This idea, by far is the most sentimental  and amazing ceremony idea I have ever seen.  When Sam told me about this I got goosebumps and I hope I have the details right.  This Box was made by Samantha's grandfather and the hammer was his as well.  There were 10 nails in the top of the Box.  Inside is a bottle of wine and a love letter that Sam and Brett wrote to each other telling the other why they love the other.  During the ceremony each Bridesmaid and Groomsmen took turns hitting one nail to seal the box.  The idea behind this is that if their marriage is ever in trouble, they are to open the box, drink the wine together and read each others love letters.  Thus renewing the love that they had on this day.  Sniff Sniff, I think I need a tissue now. 

Then on to the beautiful couple pics.  Just want to sigh

Cute cake and color scheme.  Love it. 

If the Bride and Groom stay at Tanque Verde Ranch on the night of their wedding, the Ranch decorates the Honeymoon sweet beautifully. 

(Oh, here is the sign that was on the back of the wagon)

And you can not forget our night time shots.  Love It!!!!  I really hope you liked seeing this wedding and beautiful ideas.  Please leave a note or just hit like if you enjoyed it.  Thanks for stopping by.
