Christie and Tyler Wedding Sneak Peek {The Phoenician Resort}

Christie and Tyler’s destination wedding was nothing if not spectacular! They choose Phoenix as the perfect backdrop for their wedding…mainly based on the slim change of rain. The day started off magnificent, during photos beforehand…we noticed some clouds. And as Christie is walking down the aisle with her Father…the thunder booms. It’s been said that rain on your wedding day is good luck – After this fantastic wedding, I can honestly say that it is true. Christie and Tyler both kept wonderful attitudes and enjoyed the day…even with the adjustments that needed to be made. The wonderful teams at BTS Event Management & The Phoenician Resort made the switch from outdoor soaking ceremony to indoor elegance seamless and easy.

Additional vendors that we loved working with: Lux Wedding Flowers, Got you Covered Music, Amore Files, & Celebrity Tux and Tails


I can honestly say that I can’t pick a favorite image….I know – I should be able to at least have one! But this last shot of the first dance…LOVE IT! Also – I love the image of the Tyler and the Groomsmen walking through the doorway…So amazing!
I am blessed to work with such an amazing team. I LOVE working with Chris – he is my rock. Tabitha is our amazing assistant, we just don’t know what we did before we found her.

If you had to pick two favorite images – which would you pick?

    Christie - Hi Jill and Chris – thank you so much for taking these amazing photos to capture our day! It was definitely an eventful wedding… and it was a ton of fun! Who knew we’d come to Phoenix only to encounter a monsoon as I began walking down the aisle?! I think my favourite photo might be the one with the bridesmaids & groomsmen all making a face while Tyler and I kiss… except of course for Anna, who can’t seem to act anything but happy! I can’t stop laughing at Tyler trying to be cool walking through the door… it was a nice try and probably the closest he’ll ever get to debonair! I’m also highly amused by the picture of me placing the ring on Tyler and mocking him with a “Take this symbol as a ring of my love.” Besides these great entertaining photos, the one that makes me really happy is of me walking with my dad down the aisle (the first time). Definitely a happy night!ReplyCancel

    Auntie B - Wow!!!! What great pictures! I love the picture of the rings on the curling rock (of course) and I think the one of Tyler and the boys walking in the door is very “Ocean 11ish” – haha! Jill and Chris did a great job of capturing the essence of the day for sure! Can’t wait to see the famjam pix!ReplyCancel

    Lee Ann and Doug - Great job, Jill and Chris. One favourite is of Christie and Mark and the genuine affection you’ve captured between them. The other is the beautiful smile Tyler is sporting as he shakes Mark’s hand at the ‘outside’ ceremony. Looking forward to reliving a wonderful event through your lenses!ReplyCancel
