Small Arizona Wedding

[Karen_and_Andy]

I just wanted to introduce myself to the board. My name is Karen and I'm from the Columbus, OH area. My fiance and I are planning a small, outdoor destination wedding in Arizona on June 12th, 2010. Initially we started planning for a cruise wedding last year but changed our minds due to a number of factor. I'm not sure how often I'll be on the board my job keeps me very busy, but I signed up so that I could browse ceremony ideas and vendor recommendations. So far we've only booked a hotel and a florist so there's a long way to go. Luckily our wedding is very small with only a couple attendants so we're hoping that will keep things relatively fuss-free and stress-free. I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Welcome Karen! Sedona is one of my favorite places. We took our engagement pics at Red Rock Crossing in June and the weather was so awesome. And one of my un-bridesmaids was married at Merry-Go-Round Rock in July. Let me know if you want to see pics. Happy planning

Congrats and welcome to the forum!! I'm also from the Columbus area - glad to see another bride on here! I love Arizona, y FI and I went on vacation there last March and literally went from one end of the state to the other. Sedona is gorgeous and there was actually a wedding going on while I was there, looked beautiful! Good luck with all your planning!!

Thanks for the welcome! We're still trying to decide between Red Rock Crossing and Bell Rock for the ceremony. It's going to be a small wedding party so we still have time to figure it out. We're thinking of taking a trip there again in November or December to make some final decisions.

Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but in what category should I start a thread to find other brides marrying in Sedona, Arizona? It looks like the only US Mainland categories are Las Vegas, California, Hawaii, etc.

Hey Karen and Andy,

Welcome to the forum - it's a great group of girls here. There are even 5 or 6 of us in AZ. There aren't a lot of people on the forum getting married in AZ but it is a very romantic state with a lot of venue choices. From Sedona and Oak Creek, to Lake Powell and the Grand Canyon.

I live in Phoenix, two hours from Sedona. I also coordinate destination weddings. I'd be happy to help in any way possible, even if it's just going up to Sedona, taking pictures for you and giving you a candid opinion on location.

 

Have fun and congratulations on your engagement.
