The Castle at Ashley Manor Wedding: Christopher + Aimee | Chandler Wedding_0053.jpg

A fairytale scene from the movies played out in Chandler, Arizona. There were ivory castle towers, spiraling vines and European canons that surrounded these two lovebirds on their special wedding day at The Castle at Ashley Manor.

Aimee got bridal ready in her princess chambers enclosed by helpful bridesmaids.

While his bride was prepping, the groom, Chris was putting on his suit and armor to sweep his princess off her feet!

At this Arizona wedding there were stylish groomsmen rocking family heirloom pocket watches…

gorgeous bridesmaids making flowers look even prettier.

Aimee chose to send out classy invitations for her fairytale wedding.

Instead of Chris and Aimee having a full first look they met each other between a door.

These epic floral arrangements were designed by Castle Flowers.

The Castle at Ashley Manor wedding venue offers the best lighting and outdoor European wedding vibe. It’s an exquisite sight seeing how the couple look at one another when they commit to loving one another for life. Wedding vows remind me of this quote by Timothy Keller, ““When over the years someone has seen you at your worst, and knows you with all your strengths and flaws, yet commits him- or herself to you wholly, it is a consummate experience. To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. ” To be fully known and fully loved for who we are is a marvelous gift.

It’s a blessing to gift the wedding couple moments of their bridal party enjoying their big wedding day!
