Garrett and Ashley’s Stonebridge Manor Wedding

This Stonebridge Manor wedding was absolutely GORGEOUS! If you are newly engaged and looking for an amazing wedding venue in the Phoenix and surrounding area, I highly recommend you check out Stonebridge! Stonebridge is a hidden gem in Arizona, if you live in the valley you are probably already aware at how difficult it is to find a lush green venue without traveling atleast an hour or so up north. Not only does Stonebridge Manor have two different areas for couples to access for their wedding but the property is HUGE! There are photo ops at nearly every corner with a flower garden, a stone bridge, a courtyard, balcony, the list goes on! It is such an elegant venue and pretty decently priced compared to other local venues, I definitely recommend scheduling a tour to see for yourself!

Ashley and Garrett’s Stonebridge Manor Wedding took place in the fall, one of our absolute favorite seasons for Arizona weddings! They chose to get married on the bridge side of the venue that has tons of big beautiful trees that provide shade and perfect lighting for photos at all times of the day. This wedding was SO fun to photograph because the couple was seriously the absolute sweetest ever. Ashley could light up a room with her smile and you could tell they were just so happy to be getting married! Weddings like this make our job as photographers so fun because I thrive off of capturing emotion and there was so many feels from everyone on this wedding day!

A few things I absolutely loved that Ashley and Garrett included in their Stonebridge Manor Wedding day was the elegant champagne tower, this is so much fun for photos too! Their petal toss as they exited the wedding ceremony, another incredible photo op! The sweet moment they had with their bridal party and moms praying over them right before walking down the aisle together. The fog canon they used to hype up their guests during open dance, the cigar bar, the amazing scookie bar truck that came for dessert and of course the sparkler exit to end the night!

Shaice and Seth’s Modern Wedding at The Paseo

Being able to photograph a wedding at The Paseo is always a magical experience for us, Shaice and Seth’s modern wedding at The Paseo was no exception! The venue itself is Arizona’s number one most sought after venue to get married at. We often have couples come from all over the world to get married at The Paseo because absolutely nothing compares! If you are looking for an incredible desert wedding experience then Shaice and Seth’s wedding will not disappoint!

The Paseo is an exclusive, unique and luxurious venue directly in front of the Superstition Mountains. Surrounded by Saguaros, Cholla and an expansive desert as the backdrop! This is the perfect location to hold any wedding celebration. As an elopement and wedding photographer in Arizona, we are always drawn to color palettes that enhance the natural beauty of the venues and locations we are working with during events. Shaice and Seth chose to go with a mix between modern and bohemian with their sleek all black bridal party outfits and the stunning dried florals decorated all throughout the venue.

Shaice and Seth are huge family people! When we met to discuss their vision for their modern wedding at The Paseo they emphasized how important capturing the moments between them and their families were. They are so close with their families they really wanted to capture that during their big day and we were so honored to be a part of such intimate and special moments between all of them! Seth and Shaice were long distance for many years while they both finished school and also had most of guests come from out of state to celebrate them so this day was a big one for everyone!

After Shaice and Seth exchanged their vows in front of the Superstition Mountains, they wandered through the desert to enjoy some desert views and get the majestic golden hour photos that everyone dreams about! As the sun began to set, guests were invited into The Paseo’s massive reception space. Tables decorated with dried florals, sleek black tablecloths and candles welcomed guests as they sat for dinner with the large barn doors open unveiling the Superstitions as the sun set. It was the perfect design for a modern wedding at The Paseo!

Shaice and Seth’s wedding at The Paseo was so fun! A few of our favorite touches that felt like they brought more personalization to the day was the classic car we used for an exit along with some epic bridal photos during reception, the super fun champagne tower and the glow sticks they brought to liven up the dance floor!
