The Paseo Wedding: Joshua + Jennifer

The Paseo Wedding: Joshua + Jennifer: Superstition Arizona Wedding_0023.jpg

They met at Red Mountain Community Church in 2013. They went on a road trip with friends and during the car ride Joshua at one point sped up to get around a semi truck. Two months after that adventure they started to date. They spent a lot of time hanging out in the same group of friends and doing events like watching the Harry Potter series.  Joshua and Jennifer have been dating for 1 ½ years since August 2014.

Joshua and Jennifer, from the first time meeting you at Hazelrock, to your engagement at the Salt River, to an Arizona mountainside wedding, I am truly amazed by you two. Your love for God and putting Him at the center of your relationship is evident to all who spend time with you. Thank you for inviting me to document your marriage celebration! Grace and Peace, April

There was beauty everywhere and The Superstition Mountains were the perfect backdrop for a desert wedding at The Paseo on November 15, 2015.

About an hour before the ceremony it was downpouring… that didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits, it was a day of celebration!

Moments before the ceremony the rain stopped and the clouds swiftly moved over The Superstition Mountains.
