JANELLE AND PEDRO WEDDING

































After shoots on Wednesday and Thursday in two different sections of the state, we moved on to Phoenix Friday evening for Janelle and Pedro's wedding on Saturday. This was definitely a grand event, beginning at 9:30AM at the hotel in which everyone stayed the night before. A limo picked up Janelle and her bridal party at 9:45AM to take them to their hair and makeup appointments at Dolce Salon and Spa in Chandler. The guys took time to play at Golfland throughout the morning.
After Dolce and a much needed lunch, the limo returned for the bridal party to drive them to the wedding venue at The Wright House in Mesa, during which time they popped a bottle of bubbly to toast the occasion. Once at the venue things rolled quickly with getting ready as Janelle and Pedro planned on seeing one another before the ceremony to do their formals. Check out the look on Pedro's face - absolutely priceless!!! And for good reason ... Janelle was a true vision in her beautiful gown covered in elegant lace and her catherdral length veil flowing in the wind - and let us not forget, the unique chocolate brown and white polka doted shoes. Janelle said during the limo ride that she was not altogether comfortable with the idea of all attentions being on her, but it was hard for it not be on this day.
After formals, the ceremony took place during perfect, golden late-afternoon light - just magical. After a few more formals the party began and raged through the night. A final limo arrived around 11:00PM to wisk the happy couple away after a grand sparkler send-off by family and friends. All in all, it was a perfect wedding story.
We wish to thank Janelle and Pedro and all of their family and friends for being so gracious and welcoming. You were all just so sweet and wonderful to be around and it made our nearly 14 hour day (the longest wedding for us to date) fly by. We also wish to extend a special thank you to Lori Painter of the Wright House who made the wedding and reception flow flawlessly. We hope you two are having fun in Jamaica and we hope you love the photos as much as we do!
