Colorful Pi Day Wedding

February 23, 2021 | No Comments

Today’s feature is a feast for your color-loving eyes! Tucson photographer Meredith Amadee loves a whimsical, colorful wedding and she’s sharing a beauty with us today. Here’s how Meredith described Bridget and Justin’s big day:

Residing in Colorado, Bridget and Justin’s desire was to have a destination wedding in Tucson, Arizona on their anniversary, Pi Day! They emphasized wanting to show their friends and family a good time in the desert and show off its beauty as well as the local goodness of Tucson. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 lockdown happened the day before the wedding. With the help of amazing vendors stepping it up, Bridget and Justin were able to have a scaled-down, joyous celebration on Pi Day in the beauty of the desert!

The couple included so many special touches that were perfectly *them*. Bridget wore the most beautiful and unique bridal outfit I’ve ever seen and photographed, and adorned herself with intentionally chosen jewelry pieces and a flower crown. Justin was decked out in their wedding colors, blue and yellow, in a bespoke suit and he looked quite dapper! We enjoyed all the gems and desert botanicals that the Lodge on the Desert had to offer for their first look and couple’s photos. An even bigger treat was riding in the vintage car to their ceremony and taking photos in Gate’s Pass along the way.

Bridget’s and Justin’s friends surrounded them with love and support through their presence, words, and incredible dance moves! I am so happy this couple was able to tie the knot before the world got too crazy and I’m sure they are, too. It was such a magical, colorful, desert-filled wedding!

We reached out to the bride and groom to find out a little more about their celebration. According to them, getting married in Tucson was the best decision they made about their wedding. (We couldn’t agree more!) They wanted their wedding to be outside, with the mountains as a backdrop and lots of greenery and they knew Tucson could provide all of that. As Bridget noted, Tucson “also provided a warm escape for our family and friends who traveled from the Midwest, Northeast and Northwest”. Bridget and Justin had high praise for their local vendors as well, sharing: “Jane Castle brought our wedding day vision to life while working with us long distance. Her network of vendors enabled the day to run smoothly. Hans Hutchison was a great DJ for us because we’re both music lovers and Hans’ professionalism and organization kept us calm when a lot of things around our wedding were stressful. Posh Petals heard our call for color and use of live plantings and more than stepped up. We were so thrilled to see our plantings donated to those in the community after our wedding concluded. Working with Meredith to capture our special day was a perfect choice for us, she brought her love of color to our very colorful wedding. (Editor’s note: we absolutely LOVE the idea of live plantings being donated post-celebration. Bravo!) Here’a little more from the couple:

The best part of the day was looking out across the museum and seeing all our loved ones having a great time together. People came from all across the country and shared their love with us that day. We look back on that day with full hearts and we can’t wait to safely return to Tucson!
