Luu and Chris's Cloth and Flame Wedding at the Icehouse

Riding Tandem had the pleasure of working with Luu and Chris to create the wedding of their dreams! Our couple chose to tie the knot at the industrial Icehouse with the help of Cloth and Flame. Cloth and Flame is absolutely amazing at bringing all of the elements you could possibly want for your special day. Before the ceremony could start, Luu was dressed in her beautiful gown with the help of her mother. Getting ready with your closest friends and family really makes the day extra special! Chris showed off his custom suit before snapping some pictures with their fur babies! We love the idea of including your animals on your wedding day, and who doesn’t love to see some sweet doggos!?

The love in these two’s eyes is undeniable! The smiles didn’t stop as Luu made her way down the aisle to Chris. They exchanged their vows in front of their guests and you could feel the love and emotion in the room during their ceremony! After they said their “I do’s” guests tossed rose petals to celebrate, which we thought was such a cute idea!

This was such a fun group to work with! After the ceremony, the bridal party got together for photos, before the newlyweds shared their photo-op moment together. Lacie Photography was the photographer for the day, and they did an amazing job of capturing the fun-loving personalities this couple had!

Luu and Chris made their way to the reception, where they shared their first dance and could start the celebration for the night! They shared a toast and had some heart-warming speeches by the couple’s loved ones congratulating them on the start of their beautiful new life together! After all of the sweet words were said, DJ C West was ready to start the party!

We loved all of the details of this couple’s reception! They had their sweet fur babies as the cake topper and an endless assortment of foods! There was no way anyone would be leaving hungry! It was such an amazing night to share!

The Riding Tandem team is so thankful to have been a part of Luu and Chris’s wedding day! We had an amazing experience and love creating these lasting memories for others. Congratulations to the lovely couple!

It was a beautiful day to celebrate Taylor and Shane! We loved their choice of the Heard Museum as the venue, as it has a ton of open space and a creative feel. It was the perfect location for our couple to tie the knot! With help from friends and family, Taylor and Shane dressed for the day before meeting for their first look.

Our couple had such a romantic first look moment together! They shared their vows in private and enjoyed the time that they had together before heading to the altar. Janelle Etzel Photography was amazing at snapping these precious memories in the making.

The groomsmen and bridesmaids joined in for photos before the ceremony. The ladies looked amazing with their florals from The Wildflowers. The men were also looking so snazzy! This group was such a sweet bunch, and we love getting to celebrate all of the important people in the couple’s lives as well!

Sealed with a kiss! Our couple cheered their way down the aisle as they were now Mr. and Mrs. It was time to make way to the reception to celebrate the rest of this special day!

Lexi and Danny's Fairytale Wedding at Agritopia

Meet Lexi and Danny! We had the pleasure of assisting this lovely couple on their wedding day at the Agritopia Farm. This venue offers the perfect fairytale-garden theme that couples love! It was such an experience to be a part of Lexi and Danny’s love story. Our couple prepped for the day before sharing their first look and vows in the one of 11 acres this venue has to offer. The scenery was gorgeous and had a variety of areas that felt intimate enough to share their first sweet moment together!

What a cute couple! We love these pictures taken by Paige Lorin Photography. Lexi and Danny snapped some photos before joining their friends and family who were anxiously waiting for the ceremony to start!

This ceremony was stunning! The natural beauty of the venue made it easy to add just a few small touches of decor to really tie the event together. The choice in florals from Garden Gate Flowers were perfect! Then, walked down their aisle by their parents, Lexi and Danny were finally able to meet for their moment! Sealed with a kiss, our newlyweds celebrated as the new Mr. and Mrs.

Lexi and Danny brought all of the vibes with their red-car photoshoot and reception. They had fun temporary tattoos their guests could use and a crossword puzzle, made by Etchings by Emma, for everyone to work together on! Lexi was the star of the show, especially when she left to chop her hair as a symbol of her new beginning, before leaving for the night! Such an amazing and sentimental idea! The Riding Tandem team was so lucky to meet these amazing humans and be involved in their wedding day! We enjoyed celebrating you. Congratulations!

Heather and Michael's Cloth and Flame Wedding at the Icehouse

Heather and Michael’s wedding love story is one for the books! These two are the sweetest and most charming humans, and we were so lucky to guide them during this special time! Celebrating their day in the heart of Downtown Phoenix at The Icehouse, Heather and Michael were destined to have a beautiful wedding day. They had an industrial-chic style, and the pops of disco made for the perfect fun-loving vibes!

Our bride looked stunning in her wedding gown as she shared a special moment with her mom while getting an extra hand to be dressed. Heather and her bridesmaids glammed and snapped photos in their dressing room while Michael and his groomsmen had their model moments outside.

Cloth and Flame did an amazing job bringing Heather and Michael’s vision to life with their wedding decor. Everyone was in love with the color scheme and scene of this wedding. As more guests arrived, they were welcomed to stop for a small charcuterie board snack or to fill out a sweet note at the welcome table.

The moment had finally come! As Heather made her way down the aisle to her soon-to-be husband, we couldn’t help but notice the tears of happiness that were running down the groom’s face. It was truly a touching and intimate moment for the two, and it was obvious that they are meant for each other! After their solidifying kiss, the newlyweds took the time to get family photos. Sadie B. Photo and Film is a pro and did an amazing job with snapping all of the important moments and taking the time to get some unique shots. With such a beautiful couple, there were many different photo style opportunities!

How stunning and unique are these photos! The florals by Wild Posy were just the perfect touch of color that Heather was wanting to incorporate for her wedding. With pink, maroon, and other soft-like tones, Heather’s bouquet was a personal favorite!

The reception was such a fun time! With delicious food from Modern Tortilla and Oakwood Fire Pizza, guests were able to eat and snack all evening. Heather and Michael added a dessert table, made by Cake by Kenna, and it was a hit! Adding something a little different like donuts lets guests enjoy a sweet treat after disco dancing the night away!

The Riding Tandem team is so thankful for having the opportunity to help plan the wedding of Heather and Michael. We hope for a lifetime of happiness and adventure. We are always overjoyed with these experiences!
