Best Real Wedding - Lexi & Nikko by Satin & Slate Weddings

Beneath the golden November sun, designers at Satin & Slate Weddings crafted an earthy, 1920s-inspired setting at the bride’s childhood home. Seeking a balance of sophistication, originality and modernity, the team carefully selected elements that complemented the property’s rustic charm. Embracing an intimate gathering of close friends and family, they gave every thoughtful detail the space to shine. From fresh fruit accents to romantic scripted signage, it was whimsy at its finest. Traditional candlelit tablescapes were given a fresh twist with grapes, olives and pink-and-white ruffled plates, while delicate white lace and soft green tablecloths provided a striking contrast to the warm-toned goblets at each place setting. From the bride’s mid-length lace veil to the playful floral dome cake, modern femininity infused the celebration. The estate’s old-world architecture was transformed into an enchanting garden, brimming with love, laughter and personality that guests will remember for years to come.

To reflect Heather and Louis’ love of gourmet food at their Saguaro Lake Guest Ranch wedding, they served individual charcuterie boards instead of a traditional salad service to encourage guests to engage and share.

The floral design at Hanna and Jake’s soirée at Sanctuary Camelback Mountain was anything but ordinary, incorporating a desert color palette, tantalizing textures and movement galore.

Best Moment Captured - Cacie Carroll Photography

The first look is one of the most treasured moments of a wedding day, whether it’s walking down the aisle or a moment in private. We adore this exchange between Olivia and Joey, filled with love and emotion.
