Caitlin and Brandon planned an intimate and romantic wedding at the Hermosa Inn in Paradise Valley Arizona. They were surrounded by 75 of their closest friends and family as they said “I do.”

Their story began 5 years ago on Match.com. A stand out part was they found out that they both worked for the same company, just on different floors!! They had absolutely no idea. On Valentines day last year Brandon proposed at a very romantic restaurant called Sass. It was POURING and Caitlin said it was extremely romantic!

They decided to get married at the Hermosa Inn and it was Gorgeous. It was unlike any place I had ever seen. The Hermosa Inn is actually a very unique hotel that has so many cool and unique places for beautiful photos.

Their style for their wedding was very Intimate and romantic with a desert garden backdrop. They used a ton of greenery and natural tones, with hints of blush. The bridesmaids were in mismatched dresses (floral, blush and burgundy) which complimented the groomsmen in all navy. Miss matched bridesmaid dresses are always my favorite because I think it helps all of the wedding colors come together so perfectly.

Once they said their I do’s we headed down to the Hermosa Inn wine cellar for some very unique photos. They told me these were the photos they wanted more than anything! I absolutely love when couples want to step out of the box and try something different.

Caitlin shared her biggest advice for new brides “ My biggest piece of advice, hands down, would be to spend a little extra and get the wedding planner. Tessa was the main reason I was so relaxed and got to truly enjoy every moment of our wedding. She literally handled everything and I didn’t have to worry about a thing, for a perfectionist like myself, this was key! I originally had thought that since we were having such an intimate wedding, we didn’t a wedding planner but there are so many little details that you can’t possibly handle on your own.”
