La Mariposa wedding featuring Ron+Nicole

This AHHH-Mazing wedding is that of Ron and Nicole.  Married at the beautiful La Mariposa.  The green oasis in the desert and a little piece of the green heaven we usually miss here in Tucson.  Nicole was a giddy and excited bride.  She was radiant all day and Ron was stunningly handsome. 

Nicole had her reception shoes embroidered with I (heart) Ron.  Her colors turquoise and Red.

I have mentioned before about these personalized hangers that can be found on Etsy.  I llllllloooooove them. 

Just a note for anyone wanting to buy them.  They are made out of  light aluminum and will not hold up the weight of the dress for more than a couple minutes.   Upside:  Does look great in pics and  how amazing would it look to hang your lingerie up on it on your honeymoon.

Gorgeous I tell you. 

My sweet hubby rocks the guys shots every time.  Love this. 

This cute shot was the brain child of our bride.  The beautiful young lady on the right is Ron and Nicole's daughter and the sweet young lady on the left is Nicole's best friends daughter. 

Isn't that just sweet!!!

We were recently asked if we mind children at our weddings.  Are you kidding........we love them.  They are spontaneous, fun and love dressing up and feeling like princesses.  Put a girl in a pretty dress and give her an acre of grass and here is what you get.  :)

Mmmmmmmmmm details.

The first dance....Sigh

Ron and Nicole left with a bang.  Sparklers.  And wait till you see what we did with them.  The Grand Finale of Love.

Thanks for stopping by.....More beautiful AZ weddings coming up.

Ryan + Stephanie at La Mariposa

This first picture above was taken the day before Stephanie and Ryan's wedding. But just loved it so much I had to share.

Ryan and Stephanie had their wedding and graced the grounds of La Mariposa in Tucson . The grounds here were stunning and one of the best backdrops I have seen yet. The picture below is just...........AMAZING.

Words just do not do it justice. It is poetic and romantic.

A wedding photographers paradise.

Stephanie's entrance in the ceremony was a long walk across the grounds, through the trees and up to the gazebo to the love of her life. Sigh.......

There is a wonderful pond across from the gazebo. Green grass, green trees....for those of you that want to steer away from the desert look, this place is for you.




I just have to sigh again.....................OMG!!

Look at these beauties.








The guys - handsome and they have their game face on.

Each table had a card in the center that told about a special place or thing that meant something or intimate to Ryan and Stephanie.

The dance floor inside has a very large round sky window looking up into the clouds and shows the night stars once the sun goes down.

They light up the gazebo at night and we get to take some of our fav romantic shots under the stars.



Sparklers were brought out to lighten up thier exit. Always great for sending off the happy couple as they leave to thier honeymoon.

Ahhhhhhhhh
