Whitney & Vincent // Sedona Adventure Pink Jeep Micro Wedding at Enchantment and Merry Go Round Rock

October 19, 2023 by Leslie Allred in wedding

Whitney and Vincent had such a memorable, adventurous wedding. They got ready and had a tearful first look on the beautiful property of Enchantment Resort. We then headed to Pink Jeep in uptown Sedona to board our Jeeps. Years ago, Whitney and Vincent took a Jeep tour to Merry Go Round and decided they would get married at that exact spot. They made their dreams a reality and came back with close friends and family to witness their wedding. It’s a bumpy ride to Merry Go Round Rock, but it’s always worth it. Preview above, full film below.

Lindsay & Mitch // Snowy Sedona Elopement {Sedona Elopement Videographer}

March 22, 2023 by Leslie Allred in elopement

Lindsay and Mitch were my last wedding of 2022. The original plan was to head up to to Merry Go Round with photographer Hailey Golich in her beautiful 4-Runner. Mother Nature had other plans. Due to snowy and muddy conditions, the road was closed. We quickly adapted. Lindsay and Mitch had their elopement ceremony at Mund’s Wagon trailhead, and then we went to Bell Rock for an incredible adventure session. Being the off-season and snowy, Bell Rock was basically empty. They had a first dance with snowy buttes in the background that I don’t think I will ever forget. Both Hailey and I were shooting from a distance to give them privacy, and I think there is a possibility that, for a moment, they forget we were there. They serenaded the words to one another and shed a few tears. Bliss. On Christmas, they announced their elopement to their loved ones with the sneak peek below and Hailey’s photos.

Marley + Bill // Sedona Elopement {Sedona Elopement Videographer}

August 18, 2022 by Leslie Allred in elopement

I love a true elopement. Just the two of them, far from home. They were easy going on all the details because getting married was what mattered most. Marley and Bill were genuine and sweet and exchanged vows where they were vulnerable and real. I’m so happy for these two, and grateful to witness such sacred moments. Also, this was the windiest ceremony I’ve ever filmed. Marley put her own veil in, and that thing stayed put, which was miraculous, because veils seem to fly off 80% of the time. Preview above, film below.

Jessica & Andy 2.0 // Red Agave Resort in Sedona

May 25, 2021 by Leslie Allred in wedding

I filmed Jessica and Andy’s May the 4th elopement in 2020. COVID was going in full force and we didn’t know what the future would bring. Jessica and Andy are both residents living in different parts of the country. They had their wedding planned for May the 4th at Red Agave in Sedona. They decided not cancel, but to elope instead, because that date was extremely important to them, as was being married living so far apart. Their elopement was beautiful— click here to see.

When it became clear that most of their friends and family would not be able to attend, the plan was always to come back to Red Agave with their family and friends. They made it happen, and it was incredible. Jessica was finally able to get her dress which had been stuck overseas, and to my delight, Brutus, their fabulous dog came to walk down the aisle for the second time. Congrats you two!

Jennifer & David Snowy Sky Ranch Lodge Wedding // Sedona Wedding Videographer

April 14, 2021 by Leslie Allred in wedding

Where to begin with this wedding? We all knew it was likely going to snow on Jennifer and David’s wedding. The day predicted 80-90% chance of snow, 1-3 inches in Sedona. On my drive from Flagstaff to Sedona, it snowed the entire time, but wasn’t accumulating much. I didn’t feel too worried about it because I drive in snow all the time, and 1-3 inches isn’t that much for Flagstaff standards. I wasn’t stressed at all and was sure I’d be home with my family that night. Ha ha.

As soon as I arrived at Sky Ranch Lodge to film Jennifer getting ready, it started snowing a lot harder. Jennifer remained calm and was grateful Stevy Fletcher the photographer, and I were there. I think she kind of worried we wouldn’t show up because of the weather, which never crossed my mind! It snowed while she put on her dress and final details, but then suddenly stopped snowing. Then I saw a warning on my weather app that said “SNOW SQUALL WARNING.” I asked Stevy- what the heck is a snow squall?

As I started setting up my tripods for the ceremony and as the guests sat down, I suddenly understood what it was. We could see a white wall coming towards us from off the Mogollon Rim. The ceremony started with a few flurries but 10 minutes in, it started snowing HARD. They weren’t snow flakes but little hard balls of snow. The visibility went down between my cameras and Jennifer and David, it was snowing so much. The snow accumulated on David’s suit, and on my cameras. However, Jennifer and David smiled through it. The officiant asked if he should cut it short, and they both said, nope! What resulted was an unforgettable ceremony, and I learned that my cameras can take more snow than I thought. Thanks goodness.

There rest of the wedding went on without a hitch- thanks goodness for the large tent at the venue! However it kept snowing. Soon we learned that the 89 and I-17 were shut down, and as vendors, we were stranded in Sedona. Sky Ranch Lodge put Stevy, her second Taylor, and I in a room for free, which was so generous. Stevy even let me borrow a pair of sweats to sleep in, that saint! Huge congratulations to Jennifer and David, and huge props to them for loving their best day ever, come what may.

Sedona Golf Resort Wedding // Mindy + Dillon {Sedona & Flagstaff Wedding Videographer}

January 11, 2021 by Leslie Allred in wedding

Mindy and Dillon delayed their wedding at Sedona Golf Resort from the spring to the fall. As a result, restrictions on gatherings lifted a little (before they were tightened down again later in the fall), and they were able to have friends and family attend their wedding. They certainly made the most of it. The wedding party was probably one of the most enthusiastic I’ve ever worked with. I think everybody was tired of isolation and ready to party.

This wedding had so many wonderful parts. Both wrote letters to each other, and I loved seeing all the similarities in their two letters Both Mindy and Dillon exclaimed “it’s long!” about the other person’s letter. Dillon was sure he would cry when Mindy walked down the aisle and he totally did. Watch the wedding film or preview to see and hear this part.

Their ceremony threatened to be rainy, but the wedding gods held off the rain and even brought out a rainbow for part of the ceremony. It was still pretty windy, but at the end of the day, it didn’t matter.

The ceremony was followed by a romantic portrait session on one of the beautiful holes at Sedona Golf Resort. We all drove golf carts to the location and laughed like children the whole way. After, there was a fabulous entrance, complete with a a wedding party tunnel, speeches, first dances, cake cutting, killer dance party, and sparkler exit. I love my elopements, but wow, big weddings are so much fun. Congratulations Mindy and Dillon! Full film above, preview below.

Sky Ranch Lodge Wedding // Melissa and Sean {Sedona and Flagstaff Videographer}

October 26, 2020 by Leslie Allred in wedding

I loved this wedding. It helped me remember the joy of big weddings. There were a full 50 people there. Definitely the biggest wedding I’ve filmed since March. I must say, I have missed the dance parties.

Melissa was such a beautiful bride. That dress fit like it was made just for her. Melissa’s parents live in Sedona, and Melissa knew all about the fun Sedona things she wanted to include in her wedding. She and her bridesmaids rode the trolley over to Tlaquepaque to meet Sean and the guys for their first look. When he saw her, I remember him saying “hot wife!” Dang straigh. Tlaquepaque is such a fun place to film. I love that stone tunnel. The tricky part is dodging the tourists with my lens. You can’t remove them from footage like you can from photo. After filming the bridal party and grabbing some romantic shots, we headed over to Sky Ranch Lodge for the ceremony. Melissa’s sister was the officiant, and she did a fabulous job. Their vows were absolutely gorgeous and tender. For sunset, we headed to a beautiful red rock location, and then headed back to the venue for dancing and speeches. Doesn’t get better than that! Full film above, preview below.

Sedona Elopement // Brandon + Rebecca {Sedona Elopement Videographer}

October 03, 2020 by Leslie Allred in wedding

Brandon and Rebecca changed their plans so many times. They were originally supposed to be in the tropics for their wedding. Because of COVID-19, they switched it to the Catalina Mountains above Tucson, AZ. These mountains experienced a terrible fire this summer, and so their wedding was cancelled again. They decided on an adventure in Sedona on a beautiful evening. Red Rock Rubicon Jeeps took us up to this incredible location, and with a few family members, Rebecca and Brandon were married.

I love how resilient Rebecca and Brandon were, and their commitment to get married this summer, no matter what.

Brandon’s vows in the sneak peek above took my breath away. Their longer film will be kept private.

Michelle and Josh L'Auberge de Sedona Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

January 24, 2019 by Leslie Allred in wedding

I know I say this a lot, but seriously, I will never forget Josh and Michelle’s wedding. Watch this film (full version above, preview below) and your heart will be full of love, peace, and hope. This world is crazy and stressful, but good people are finding love and real fairytales happen.. Michelle has two children, and the vows Josh gave to the children, and the words the children spoke to Josh were so loving and joyous. It was clear that this wasn’t just two people coming together, but an entire family, with all four people loving each other tremendously. I am so happy for them and am excited I can follow their lives on Instagram, because all four of them are going great places.

The wedding was at L’Auberge de Sedona right along Oak Creek. It was such a lovely and intimate setting. L’Auberge is a fabulous venue. There are multiple ceremony and reception locations and they are all so classy. I absolutely loved working with Katrina at Sedona Bride Photographers, and Bliss Extraordinary Floral did another fantastic job. Also, Patricia Vega did the hair and makeup, and it’s obvious she’s amazing. Also, Dan Vega played guitar, and his cover of Perfect was insanely sweet. I am loving the wedding industry in Sedona. There is so much talent and kindness. The staff at L’Auberge even forgave me for losing my valet ticket… My first 2019 wedding is in a few weeks, and I can’t wait.

Erin and Taylor's Sky Ranch Lodge Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

December 05, 2018 by Leslie Allred in wedding

Erin and Taylor traveled from Wisconsin to get married in the red rocks of Sedona. They met one evening in a bar, and then the next morning, she asked him to help her move into a new apartment, where he also met her dad. The rest is history. Erin and Taylor were married at Sky Ranch Lodge. Since moving to AZ, I’ve loved checking out the numerous wedding venues of Sedona. Sky Ranch Lodge was perfect for this couple. Their ceremony spot is gorgeous, because it is high above the city with stunning cliff views and twinkling city lights at night. Also Erin and Taylor and their guests could stay at the venue, making it convenient and homey.

When Erin and I spoke on the phone for the first time, she emphasized repeatedly that all of her guests were extremely important to her. She did not want a wedding film with just the couple, but wanted to make sure her guests were in the film. She also did not want a highlight film, but a longer documentary style film (20 minutes), which is below. I loved featuring her sweet family and friends, because as her dad said, this is really what matters in life.

Katya and Matthew Wedding Film {Sedona and Flagstaff wedding videographer}

June 04, 2018 by Leslie Allred in wedding

MOAB, UT WEDDING

Katya and Matthew grew up an ocean apart.  One day, nine years ago, he walked up to her during a California evening.  It's amazing how life brings people together.   

Matthew's parents are documentary filmmakers, and now Moab residents.  His father Michael Chandler was nominated for an Academy Award for his editing in "Amadeus", a best picture winner.  He worked on multiple films from the 80's and 90's, one being a personal teenage favorite of mine, "Empire Records" (Rex Manning day anyone?). Later he produced documentaries, including one for PBS.  In 2015, Michale Chandler and his wife Sheila Canavan (a very successful attorney) created a documentary together that was picked up by Showtime.  

I love the incredible people I meet as I film weddings, and I am always grateful to couples and their families for trusting me to witness and capture important, intimate life events.
