When I arrived Saturday morning to photograph Nicole and Adam’s wedding, I was greeted by a cheerful Nicole who informed me Adam was so sick the day before he wasn’t even able to make it to the rehearsal dinner. But fear not, Nicole was all smiles all day, full of positive energy, laughter and giggles. Someone asked if she was nervous Adam might still be too sick. Her response?
Absolutely not! Today I marry Adam no matter what and I’m so happy to be marrying him. She truly had the best attitude a bride could possible have on her wedding day. I felt so lucky to be spending the day with her and Adam. I met up with Nicole at
Sanctuary at Casa 10 where she was getting ready with all her girls and the light there was just perfect for photos.
Julie Koeth, once again, did a wonderful job with the make-up and Mandy Samford from
Taglio’s Salon did an outstanding job with Nicole’s hair.

If I had to get married tomorrow in Nicole’s wedding gown and shoes I’d be more than happy to. Her wedding gown from
Mariee by
Junko Yoshioka was so simple with subtle details in all the right places. And can I say that I’m in love with the bolero that goes with it? Wow! So gorgeous!
(scroll down for photos of the bolero). And you can probably see it, but just in case, the stunning strappy sandals are
Badgley Mischka.

I have a soft spot for sister relationships as I absolute adore my own sister and can’t imagine my life without her in it. Mandy was getting ready to help Nicole put her shoes on but they just had to stop and share a hug first, because that’s what sisters do.

Nicole all ready to go and looking stunning! And here’s that bolero I mentioned earlier. Wow, right?!

Nicole’s bridesmaids were so much fun! If you feel like you recognize lower half number one on the left, that’s my bride
Kristina and lower half number three is Gina, who was also Kristina’s bridesmaid! It was so much fun to see them again. Their adorable dresses are from
Twirl by
Jenny Yoo and the shoes are from
Nine West.

Adam and Nicole had a first look which allowed us to get some portraits of them before the ceremony at Sanctuary:



We then left for the
Brophy Chapel for their ceremony. I don’t think they could have possibly been any happier :)


And I’d love to say a big thank you to Ann Marie at Brophy Chapel. She was just so helpful and sweet to me. I’m truly thankful.
A few more photos at Brophy Chapel and Sanctuary:




Nicole’s jewelry complemented everything so perfectly. Her bracelet was custom made by
Lani.

The flowers and centerpieces were done by
Table Tops Etc and I’m sure it goes without saying it but aren’t these gorgeous?! The pale pink and blush colors really softened the black and white color scheme. The cake was by
Julia Baker Confections and sadly I never got to have a piece, but it looked stunning and I’m sure it was delicious.

The first dance always says it all and these two are in for a really fun life together!

Isn’t it sweet how these two were holding hands while watching the dances and toasts? :)

Nicole’s dad’s speech spoke so strongly of their father-daughter relationship which made watching their dance even more special:
Rocklobster is the best 80′s band in Arizona. They are awesome and really know how to get a party going.
Jeff Bills with Serendipity was their videographer and said he caught me dancing on film. Ooops! But when the party is this much fun I can’t help but join in. But don’t worry I’ve mastered the whole shooting while dancing thing :).


Dear Nicole and Adam, your wedding was so full of love and joy! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it. I am sure you are having a blast on your honeymoon and I hope you enjoy your images.

Cristi,
OMGosh these pictures are absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sending me the link! At the rehearsal, I felt so bad for Adam because he was so sick, but Nicole was so positive – love that in a bride! Of course, I love the chapel pics – might have to get one of those from you for my office. Thanks!
