The lovely bride and groom lovingly nuzzle at a gorgeous banquet table provided for by I Do Rentals AZ and styled with decadent fruits, cheeses, and breads. The finishing touches with beautiful greenery provided by Paradise Valley Florist Weddings as well as the stunning bouquet graced the table. The couture gown from Suzanne’s Bridal perfectly matched the feel of the whole day. Each detail was so carefully thought out and made for the perfect backdrop for a whimsical day amid the historical and beautiful Greek styled elements throughout. To think that this whole styled shoot was created and executed from repurposed elements and brought together with such finesse shows how you can create a stunning wedding and make a difference for the environment. – Styled, Planned & Coordinated by Yohanna Wendt PhotographyA one of a kind hanging chandelier dessert table decorated with tasty cupcakes by Christina’s Pastries.

‘Congratulations to the happy couple!’ and on she ran continuing her evening jog through the stunning desert landscape.
Mercedes’ contagious giggles and Phillip’s small chuckles filled the evening air as they posed for their pictures. The jokes consisted of snorts and James Bond music. Everyone was joyful and having fun.
Phillip and Mercedes had only met six days before but you wouldn’t have known it by the time the shutter of my camera snapped for the last time that evening.
Their contagious joy spread through everyone who was helping with the modeling session. Phillip was wearing a sharp James Bond tuxedo from Celebrity Tux and Tails and Mercedes was adorned in a gorgeous couture gown from KC Haute Couture with her hair and makeup perfectly done up (@saint.fam.bam & @5little_saints). The soft lavender flowers and baby pink mini roses in Mercedes’ bouquet from Desert Poppy Florals completed her flawless attire along with the exquisite necklace hand crafted by the talented Passion of Light Jewelry.
I have coordinated many styled sessions but none have left me with feeling so joyful and fulfilled.
I want to give a special thanks to all the people behind the scenes that helped make this whole session possible. To my amazing husband for holding down the fort,to Rebecca for styling the groom, to Judy and Megan for being such an amazing support throughout the whole session, to Naomi Black for helping create the game changing technique so sessions like this are possible, to John St. Amand (@havokonearth) for videoing the wonderful session, and to Young Life for helping with raising awareness for the special needs community.
