I love the soft colors and lighting in the Windmill Winery’s Lakehouse bridal suite. Chrissy’s getting ready details were stunning.

Matthew and Chrissy’s first look was so sweet. I love how the Arizonian’s bougainvillea bushes framed Chrissy walking towards her groom.

It’s crazy to think this is an Arizona wedding; The Windmill Winery offers a lakeside view.

Marriage is a commitment of never leaving your partner, especially in a fire! (Idea from Fireproof.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84q0SXW781c

Their celebration held a few dances of some Irish jigs; my camera was so happy that it danced along.
