Bright Bold Luxury Wedding at Arizona Biltmore

May 10, 2018

When I first met Kristin and Jamie at their home in July at Pecan Estates for their engagement session, I knew I was going to love these two! They have a warm welcome that is also very playful and fun! After experiencing their wedding I can totally see how they have so many friends and family! They are just incredible people to be around and together make an even more magnetic couple. From the first look where Jamie could not stop beaming at his beautiful bride, to their playful banter at sunset photos, these two really know how to have fun together.
One of my favorite aspects of their wedding day was the fact that they BOTH had initiated and completely planned out the coolest surprises for the other, and made it to the wedding day without it getting ruined! For Kristin, Jamie had arranged for a gigantic flower wall to be added to the reception and she was in shock when she saw it for the first time! A simple comment she made months ago about wanting a flower wall and Jamie made that dream come true for her on her big day! Then after cocktail hour commenced surprise number two where we set up ” group photo” out on the lawn, little did Jamie know that all cameras were on him as we caught his reaction to the firework show starting right behind us! It was incredible to see how well the other one was able to add an incredibly fun element of surprised to the day, something we have never seen both the bride and groom pull off! The rest of the evening was full of dancing, drinks and hilarious toasts that had all their guests laughing.
Jamie and Kristin, we were so honored to be a part of your beautiful wedding! Thank you for letting us capture your love on one of the best days of your lives! We are so happy for you both and foresee lots of fun years ahead of you two!
All our best, Jenn and Kayla

“Our venue, the Arizona Biltmore was just perfect. We are both from the east coast so we loved the greenery and grounds there.  It has a very “old Hollywood” but modernized vibe, which we loved as well. Our theme was marble and gold so we of course had to choose the “gold room”! The florals were bright and whimsical and we used marble coasters as escort cards/favors. We rented a white dance floor and the linens tied everything together and the room turned out even more beautiful than I could’ve even imagined!”-Kristinbrunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day seeing their reception room brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day portrait bright pink orange cream floral roses, dahlias centerpieces in gold vases with gold chairs and linens in ballroom wedding reception bright pink orange cream floral roses, dahlias centerpieces in gold vases with gold chairs and linens in ballroom wedding reception groom's reaction to surprise fireworks on wedding day“I loved that we both planned surprises for each other!  He surprised me with a gorgeous flower wall and I surprised him with the fireworks that “the Biltmore didn’t allow” (wink wink lol). “-Kristinbrunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day grand entrance to ballroom reception brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day first dance to ballroom reception brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day first dance to ballroom reception brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception during toasts brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception during toasts bright pink orange cream floral roses, dahlias centerpieces in gold vases with gold chairs and linens in ballroom wedding reception brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception during toasts brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception during toasts three tier wedding cake with gold foil and pink and orange peony design with cutout gold love topper wedding day detail brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception cutting cake father daughter dance in ballroom reception on wedding day bright pink orange cream floral roses, dahlias centerpieces in gold vases with gold chairs and linens in ballroom wedding reception mother son dance in ballroom reception on wedding day wedding guests dancing at ballroom wedding reception brunette bride in wedding dress with thin straps with bright color roses, dahlia, snap dragons loose bouquet with groom in black suit with purple bowtie with black and white feather with orange peony boutonniere wedding day ballroom reception with wedding planner from Shine Events“If I could give a few pieces of advice I would say:

  1. Hire a planner!! You may consider this to be an unnecessary expense but it is crucial to making your day go smoothly. (And I’m an excellent party planner who originally thought we didn’t need help.) Get one!!
  2. Do your research and take your time planning. You will be happy you took your time when you get the photographer or florist you want, AND it’s in your budget!!
  3. Enjoy your wedding day and don’t let the small things stress you. It literally FLIES by and you deserve to enjoy the day you’ve been planning for so long.  It really is the best day ever. It’s a total sense of euphoria being surrounded by all of your closest friends and family so just ENJOY it!!”-Kristin
