Samantha and Tyler are Flagstaff locals. I love love my destination couples, but it’s always so fun to have the Flagstaff connection.

Samantha and Tyler had the most beautiful wedding at one of my favorite venues, Orchard Canyon on Oak Creek. The peach, apple, and plum trees were heavy with fruit, and Marisa from Simply Sweet Photo and I, couldn’t resist asking permission from the head chef to pick a peach (which I scarfed on the drive home).

Samantha and Tyler had their family around them, as well as their sweet pup, as they committed their lives to each other. I absolutely loved how happy their pup was all day. She seemed to be barking her approval during the ceremony, and it was so joyful. Samantha embroidered their initials and date on masks for their wedding guests, which was such a fun touch. Congratulations Sam and Tyler!

Jillian and Kyle’s wedding was at Orchard Canyon on Oak Creek. This venue is stunning. You drive right across Oak Creek and then climb a small hill to a beautiful hideaway. The sound of the creek is nearby, the cliffs of the canyon are visible everywhere, the architecture blends in, and the orchards are so inviting. We were there just before the blooms, and I’m dying to go back and see it in its spring glory. The food was so delicious and a majority of the produce was grown on site.

Jillian and Kyle were married on St. Patricks’ day. Kyle rocked some clover socks and the families proudly displayed their crests. The wedding seemed to be everything Jillian and Kyle wanted it to be. It was intimate and cozy. The bride and groom had time to visit with all of their guests and have time with Caitlyn Jennings and myself to get some quick, romantic shots on the grounds, without missing too much of cocktail hour.

Brides and grooms, there is no right way to do a wedding, as long as it’s what you want! Follow your heart!
