How often can you get advice for free from a wedding coordinator? Not very often right? Well, our Style Central Stylist Victoria Canada shares her design ideas, tips and tricks for welcoming your guests to your Arizona wedding as soon as they check into their hotel. The feature article can be seen in our new issue, on newsstands now, but here are a few more images from Sedona Bride Photographers and the blog exclusive video from Serendipity Videography featuring the “Very Swanky” box.

The Bicycle Crawl Map is super clever and the Tangerine soda? Yeah, it’s inspired by 2012′s color of the year: Tangerine Tango!

The lobby at the Hotel Valley Ho is mod and hip

Sam and Leor met at college so their ASU “safari” engagement session was fitting. What you are going to notice right away is how vibrant everything is- Sam’s dress, the backgrounds at ASU and this cute couple’s love for each other…

Seriously cute stuff, right?

I love the warmth of these pictures

Here’s my favorite from the session:

What I love about these images is that Sam and Leor seem to really like to be close to each other. They snuggled like the camera wasn’t even there, which is what a lot of couples struggle with. I don’t know if they practiced before their e-session but you certainly can, especially if you tend to tense up when it’s picture time.

I asked Sam and Leor a few questions- here’s what they had to say:

KG: How did you two meet?

S/L: We met one night at a formal for Samantha’s sorority. We both had other dates! We ended up reconnecting 5 months later through mutual friends and realized we were inseparable.

KG: How long did you date before getting engaged?

S/L: We dated a little over 4 years

KG: Leor, what is your favorite thing about Sam (and vice versa)?

Sam: my favorite thing about Leor is how easy going and fun he is. He is always up to try new things. Our favorite is trying new restaurants together!

Leor: There’s a lot of things I love about Sam! Mostly how kind and thoughtful and caring she is to me and everyone around her.

KG: What’s the connection to ASU?

S/L: Leor and I both went to ASU for 4 years graduating a semester apart. We were both involved in Greek life which is how we meet. Usually greek life has a bad reputation but it’s really a great way to meet people. We have several friends getting married this year who met also through Greek life!

KG: What drew you to Serendipity Videography and Kimberly Jarman Photography?

S/L: What drew us to Serendipity was ultimately the work. We saw the video samples and Taryn’s fabulous energy and passion for weddings. What a great combination! Good work & enthusiasm. After seeing our save the date we knew we made the perfect choice. We accidentally ran into Kimberly while meeting with Taryn from Serendipity. She was so sweet and her photo samples were unbelievably sharp and told a story. This is exactly what we wanted out of our photographer. After seeing the photographs from our engagement shoot, we were even more excited for her to shoot our wedding. Her energy & creativity on our shoot really brought to life our idea of shooting on the ASU campus.

KG: When/where are you getting married?

S/L: We are getting married March 31st at the Ritz Carlton in Phoenix

Sam and Leor also shot a Save the Date with Serendipity at their session. Check it out!

Congratulations Sam and Leor- Happy Wedding!

Many thanks to Kimberly Jarman Photography and Serendipity Videography for sharing this fun engagement with us
