Shira + Jesse's Wedding at Tlaquepaque, Sedona

They were married on September 6, 2009 at the beautiful Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village.



Shira was escorted by her father. Her wedding dress was a family heirloom.



Jesse & Shira had a beautiful jewish ceremony under a huppah on Tlaquepaque's Terrace above the Patio del Norte. There were 100 guests that traveled from all over the world.



Jesse's groomsmen held up the talit that covered the huppah.



Colorful bouquets and really pretty floral were created by Bliss Extraordinary Floral, Amy Mills and her talented team.



Shira looked ethereal. She had make-up done by the wonderful Liz Margin.



This is the moment where the Rabbi reads the ketubah, the jewish wedding contract.



After their ceremony and yihud, Jesse whisked Shira away to their reception in the Tlaquepaque Ballroom, impeccably designed and deliciously catered by Rosalie's of Sedona. DJ Bobby Russell kept the energy flowing and Donna Joy of Sedona Sweet Arts created her consistently yummy and always beautiful wedding cake.

I have to tell you that Shira's wedding was gorgeous and somehow she planned it in only one month. Unbelievable. BUT you couldn't tell! It says a lot about the team she worked with from Sedona ... to make Shira's wedding look flawless.



The next day, Shira & Jesse had more wedding portraits created at Red Rock Crossing in Sedona. The atmosphere was perfect.



Jesse wanted a portrait of Shira being carried away ... and I think he could have and would have carried her all the way to the top of Cathedral Rock if she had wanted him to.



They were really fun, adventurous, and silly to photograph. I love this photo of Shira ... so glamorous and free.

Mazel Tov ... we wish you a wonderful life together ... b'shalom v'ahava.
