Elegant Floral Wedding at Gilbert LDS Temple and Villa Siena

January 15, 2018

Watching Amber and Adam all day reminded me so much of my own wedding! I had flashbacks as I watched Amber, with the most gigantic smile on her face, run around like it was the best day of her entire life… because it was! Her joy was exuberant as she bounced from hugs here, to a conversation there, to literally stopping mid-family-photo to lean over and kiss her brand new hubby! She didn’t care! And neither did I! It was so fun to watch and play off her energy! Adam was so endearing, soaking up every moment in his own calm way, you can tell he is the yin to her yang. The calm to her excitement, the peace to her bubbly. They level each other out and bring the very best out in the other, which is exactly what you want in a marriage! Balance. And watching the way Adam smiled on as he wrapped his hands around his (tiny) bride’s waist, you could see the tender love in his eyes.
I just continually was brought back to my own wedding day, and it made everything so much more fun! The love and happiness was so tangible you could just feel it! The guest were beaming, the parents were on cloud nine watching their two kids run around happy and newlywed! It was such a fun day and truly brought me back to what its like to be young and in love! Amber and Adam, I am so eternally grateful to have gotten to capture the joy from your day! It was truly an unforgettable day and It was an honor to capture all the love the two of you have, not only for each other, but for your friends and family as well! I wish you guys all the best!

Then afterward, you could really tell that she truly felt like a princess. Time seemed to slow down at that point. I can remember watching her as bent down to talk with the kids then how happy she looked as she hugged them goodbye.”-Adam bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet wedding day portrait at Gilbert LDS templeGilbert LDS temple wedding day bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie wedding day grand exit at Gilbert LDS temple

“It’s so hard to pick my favorite part of the day! I absolutely loved every moment from beginning to end. However there are a few standouts 🙂 Our sealing in the temple was absolutely incredible. It honestly felt like a little peek into heaven having all of our closest family and friends there to support us as we began our journey as husband and wife for eternity. I never cry, but in that sealing room, I could not stop the tears from flowing. Happy tears of course! It was so wonderful looking at Adam and knowing I had found my forever best friend. My second favorite moment of the wedding had to be the surprise fireworks at the end!!! So we did the sparkler send off out the front of Villa Siena, but then all of a sudden we hear big booms and there are fireworks going off right over our heads!! It was amazing!!! My dad was standing at the end of the line with the biggest grin on his face! It was the GREATEST wedding surprise!! I was so excited!!” -Amber  bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie wedding day grand exit at Gilbert LDS temple

“Each one of my groomsmen played a significant role in my life. half of them were my brothers but the other half were lifelong friends that have taught me very important lessons along the way. Each of them share a similar trait in personalities and that’s they love to have other feel included in whatever they’re doing. “-Adam bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet with bridesmaids in long sleeve burgundy dresses and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie with groomsmen wedding party portrait at Gilbert LDS temple bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet with bridesmaids in long sleeve burgundy dresses and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie with groomsmen wedding party portrait at Gilbert LDS temple bride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet with bridesmaids in long sleeve burgundy and floral dresses wedding day portrait at Gilbert LDS temple

“Seeing Adam for the first time that day was so surreal. I mean I had just seen him the night before, but this was different. Now it was our wedding day. Today was the day he became mine and I became his forever. I was thinking about all of the ups, downs, adventures, laughs, tears, and memories we have lying ahead of us. Driving to the temple together we both talked about how peaceful we felt and weren’t nervous or scared at all. We knew we had made the right choice and were ready for the rest of our lives to begin. “-Amberbride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie wedding day portrait at Gilbert LDS temple

“One thing that I absolutely loved was towards the end of the reception three little girls from my Church ward came up to me with their parents and their parents told me how they wanted to meet the princess. (So tender!!) The youngest one was probably about 4 years old or so and was so so shy. So I got down on my knees and told her I had a present for her and to stay right there. I ran over and asked my Maid of Honor if I could give her bouquet to a cute little girl and of course she agreed. When the little girl saw me coming across the dance floor with the flowers her face lit up and she started clapping and jumping up and down. She was so excited!! It was too adorable!! I gave her the bouquet and she gave me the biggest hug! Definitely a highlight of the day!! I remember being her age and LOVING to go to wedding receptions and seeing the beautiful bride’s dresses and their bouquets and just dreaming of my wedding day. I would have been over the moon happy if I had gotten a gift like that at that age. Her smile and excitement over such a simple gift made me so so happy!!”-Amberbride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet wedding day portrait with flower girls with floral head bands and burgundy dresses at Villa Sienabride in sleeved lace dress with burgundy, white, and green wedding bouquet and groom in navy suit with burgundy tie wedding day portrait at Villa Siena “I remember taking a moment and just observing the people around me. Everyone seemed so happy and of course, they’re in a good mood because of us getting married, but it seemed more than that. everyone was telling stories’ about their favorite moment with amber and I it seemed so peaceful.”-Adam

It is absolutely stunning! We wanted a venue where we could have a dinner in one location and the reception in another location that was indoors. When we toured Villa Siena I absolutely fell in love with it. The courtyard was gorgeous for our dinner and the ballroom was perfect for our reception. The elegant Tuscan feel went along perfectly with our wedding colors and theme we were going for the wedding. “-Amber
