I’ve said it before, but I will say it again.

I LOVE MARAVILLA GARDENS!

This place is pure magic! Everything about it. It’s adorable, beautiful, cozy and elegant, all at the same time. And there’s just something about the light at this place. It’s magical!

And Kellen & Kate’s wedding day didn’t disappoint. Such a sweet, fun day for a sweet, fun couple.

Their relationship started at an equally magical place: Target. (I mean, who doesn’t love Target?)It was a shopping outing for new students in their first few weeks at the University of Arizona. Life brought them together. It would lead them on many adventures, traveling around the world. And eventually to this day. The day where they would pledge to spend the rest of their lives adventuring with each other.

This is pretty much how guys always get ready for a wedding day. They had an unexpected visitor though. They named him Bruno. Bruno Mouse. Perfect.

Such a sweet moment, reading cards they wrote to each other. Kellen, did something that future grooms should take note of. Ready? He gave Kate several cards. One for their wedding day, one for their 1st, 5th, 10th, 25th and 50th anniversaries. Writing things like, “What an adventure the last 5 years have been. Both of our careers are blooming just like our relationship. We’ve been able to travel to the most amazing places and our love is deeper than ever!”

Ahhhhh! So sweet!

One of the guys was wearing a Go Pro during the reception. He gave it to one of the bridesmaids during the bouquet toss. I told her she better catch that bouquet cuz that would be awesome! She did. And I want to see that video!
