I'm not sure if I'm a believer in love at first sight. I believe there is so much that goes into love - it would be nearly impossible to be sure based on a very first glimpse.

Husband and wife!
What a cute couple:
After cocktail hour, the guests were invited to head down the street to Paradise Valley Country Club, where the reception took place. They were greeted by this fabulous escort card table complete with individual bouquets of fresh flowers that each guest was able to take home with them:
And the ballroom was crazy-amazing!
There were gorgeous details everywhere you turned:
