Sedona is considered one of the most healing and mystical places in the world, so it’s little surprise that Mia Frenkel and David Williams’s first trip to the magical destination as a couple would draw them back to it as the stage for their nuptials. The classic, inviting ceremony space of Agave Sedona showed off on their wedding day, with surrounding views of sun-drenched, snowcapped mountains and a simultaneously visible moon, complemented by a floral arch of reds, pinks, oranges and blues by Mountain High Flowers. “Every single decision that we made was intentional and helped express who we are as a couple,” Mia said. Both animal lovers, the pair incorporated their rescue pets with signature cocktails: An old fashioned called “The Pumba” for their Himalayan cat and an Aperol spritz coined “The Josie” for their greyhound. With a shared affinity for color and an especially soft spot for blue, Mia and David added splashes of the hue in various shades throughout the day, including David’s own bowtie, and the table linens by BBJ La Tavola. “We wanted to do something different from the classic ‘all white’ wedding scheme,” noted Mia. Lively pops of color from the desert landscape inspired the textured and organic floral arrangements of roses, ranunculus, anemones and silver dollar eucalyptus. The foodie-approved menu featured pesto-crusted mahi, summer strawberry bruschetta, and brown butter and scallion smashed potatoes, with a Sedona Bakery cake of half cinnamon sugar cookie, half vanilla caramel ribbon for dessert. DJ Dave expertly mixed the couple’s wide range of musical tastes to keep the party going all night long.
