My 3-Day Las Vegas Bachelorette Trip | Part 3 of Our Wedding Planning Journey

I think there is something about preparing for your next vacation that makes you reflect on the last trip you took! In two weeks and two days time, Scott and I will be heading out to Florida for our honeymoon (finally!!) and all this excitement has me thinking back on my Bachelorette Trip to Las Vegas, NV last July (how has it already been 7 months since we were here?!).

Unfortunately, I never got past the admiration stage because I quickly realized that I didn't quite have the natural grace required for the ballet and that I'd rather just sing along with Elton John's Tiny Dancer! . . .

Intimate Desert Session, Tempe, AZ | Brooke + Chester

I was recently able to travel to Arizona and while there I knew I HAD to take advantage of the beautiful desert setting while I had the chance!! Brooke and Chester were so romantic together in front of my camera, and I loved capturing these images of them and all of the gorgeous details. Brooke's stunning bouquet was filled with yellow, pink, and red roses and was tied together with taupe colored ribbons. Her wedding gown was embellished with delicate lace sleeves and a lace bodice and Chester's tan suit made him look very dapper! . . .
