Trisha and Mike's Wedding
Sunday, December 23, 2007

I photographed two weddings over Thanksgiving weekend and Trisha and Mike were my first couple on Friday. They were married in a small and very intimate ceremony at Sassi, followed by a outdoor cocktail reception and romantic dinner in one of Sassi Ristoriante's private rooms. Trisha is the wedding coordinator for the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in north Phoenix, so I was very flattered she selected me to photograph her wedding. She pulled together such a beautiful wedding and paid attention to all the small details that help shape the day. It was such a joy to meet their friends and family, who were so warm and inviting. In fact, they absolutely insisted I sit down and eat the meal with them, which was so very nice of them! I obliged and had such a nice conversation with Mike's aunts and uncles. Their one-and-a-half-year-old daughter Alexa was simply adorable and so good all day too!




Here are some the details to start... her beautiful wedding gown and shoes:




Trisha's hand made programs rolled and sealed with a beatuiful rice paper leaf and ribbon...


The stunning bridal bouquet and florals made by Rene Wendell of Design Group Florist








LOVE, love this shot of Trisha and Mike



Another favorite shot...








Adorable Alexa







I love how you can see Mike's pure joy in this shot.



....And, shortly after I backed up and kicked a cactus with those really sharp thorns, and it lodged into my shoe to the point where I couldnt get it out and couldn't wear my shoe....


So one of Mike's best friends actually got it out for me! I couldn't thank him enough for actually putting his hands inside my shoe!!!!







The beautiful room at Sassi, decorated with all of the florals by Rene Wendell






Congratulations Trisha and Mike!! Thank you for having me be a part of your day!
