Great Joy

When we asked this Sedona Destination Weddings Bride:

“How much do you love your new husband?”

She respondedby throwing her arms up with joy as if to embrace the entire moment.

She loves him so much that she planned the perfect romantic elopement to Sedona.

Sedona did not disappoint.  She enveloped this joyous couple with a stunning Sunset at spectacular Red Rock Crossing with majestic Cathedral Rock rising up above.

This was a moment and a Wedding that her Groom will hold dear in his heart forever.

This is what pulling off the perfect Elopement looks like.  Pure Bliss!

Happy Couple

Thank you so much Iala and Akal for making our elopement so incredibly special.  You really did take great care of us since the first time we spoke until even after our wedding and never let us down, for that we are truly grateful.  Our family was far away but you were all so welcoming, made us feel comfortable and at ease with your awesome personalities that it really took the edge off.  We felt like we known you all for years and we were not alone on our day. We are still amazed at how stress free everything was and how everything turned out exactly how we wanted.  The Airport Vortex is such an amazing place.  I’m happy that in one of our photos when we first got to the top of the vortex you captured the look on my face of being blown away by it’s beauty.  Everyone who has seen the photos simply gush over them and asks “How did you find this place?”  and we always say how lucky we are that we found your site or we would never even known the Airport Vortex exists.  We have so many wonderful stories to tell everyone about our cermony, I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of telling them.  See you again when we renew our vows in about 10 years :)
Eternally Grateful
Chrissy & Ron

In The Flow

This lovely Sedona Bride is in the Flow.  Standing on a Red Rock slab in the middle of Oak Creek she lets her train flow in the Creek.

This is a very powerful Vortex site.  It is said that when you face down streams you release all your cares and worries, suffering and pain.  And when you turn and face upstream as our Bride is doing you fill yourself up with Grace and Love and Peace and Joy.

Oak Creek Bride

This very beautiful Sedona Bride looks like a water maiden and her cute little ring bearer looks like a water sprite himself!

In the summertime early morning Weddings along the banks of lush Oak Creek are cool and full of summer sparkle.

Giant cottonwoods reflect in the waters surface and the temperature is perfect.

This Wedding took place at Red Rock Crossing. This is a popular Sunset Wedding Location but as you can see mornings here are magical too.

Leap of Faith


Marriage is the great Leap of Faith.  That is because when we marry we promise to love each other – not only as we feel today – but as we intend to feel for a lifetime.

With our Sedona Weddings we celebrate the Love that will grow and deepen over a lifetime.

The Leap of Faith is a good thing.  On your Wedding Day it is a Jump for JOY!  May you always remember the Joy that set wings to your feet. Amen

Togetherness

Two Heads are Better than One

This picture really is perfect for that old saying.  This young couple put their heads, hearts and lives together in their romantic Wedding Ceremony by the Banks of Oak Creek.

When we come together in Matrimony we get two of everything. More love, more hope, more brain power, more life and family, more joy, more Bliss, MORE!!!

It’s a good thing.

Isn’t She Lovely

Good Morning America certainly agrees that Sedona is magnificent. They have chosen Sedona as one of the TOP 10 most beautiful places in America. Their weatherman Sam Champion was here this past week filming and interviewing Sedona people and businesses.
We are very honored that our Shaman Officiant Akal was chosen by the Sedona Chamber to be a featured guest.
They filmed one of his amazing Drum Songs on Airport Vortex at Sunset. So watch ABC and Good Morning America the week of August 8th. And then let your imagination fly and call us soon to book your Sedona Destination Wedding!!

Shamanic Sedona Song

At this Intimate Wedding along the banks of Oak Creek our Shaman Akal serenades the couple with his drum singing solo.

Akal’s drum songs are moving, memorable and once in a lifetime. He creates his song from the energy of the moment. This Song was heard on the Wind for a moment and remains in the heart forever.

Our Shamanic Sedona Package is truly one of a kind!

Lover’s Knoll Bride

This beautiful Bride is basking in the glow of Sunset at Lover’s Knoll.
Lover’s Knoll is an awesome Sunset Wedding Location.
There’s ample parking. very east access. And Cathedral Rock all aglow with the last of the day’s Sun.
We love this location. At Sunset all the Rocks light up and shine in all their Red Rock Glory. There are very few people here and we often find we have the Knoll to ourselves. it’s one of Sedona’s Special treasures. Perfect for elopements and larger Wedding parties too.

A Sedona Ring Blessing

Sedona Destination Weddings has a a special Ring Blessing Tradition.
First we fill a Tibetan Bowl with water from Oak Creek. Oak Creek is considered sacred by the local tribes. I call it the Ganges of America. This then is Holy or Sacred Water.
The Wedding Rings are placed in the water at the beginning of the Ceremony. They are being cleansed and empowered with the Words of the Ceremony and the Vows of the Bride and Groom.
When it is time to exchange rings our Officiant further Blesses the Rings by ringing a bell over them and calling for a Blessing for the Marriage and for the Couple to wear these rings as a reminder of the Vows they have spoken.
After the Ceremony the Bride and Groom and all the guests take turns scooping out a bit of the Sacred Water and sprinkling it on the Rocks – giving the precious water back to the desert and as they do so saying a Blessing for the Marriage. It is a lovely way to include everyone in your Celebration.
The last of the water is given back by the Officiant with this Blessing:
MAY THE RAIN OF BLESSING FROM THIS DAY FALL ON EVERYONE.

Sand Tradition

Here is a beautiful image of a Sand Ceremony set up along Oak Creek at Red Rock Crossing.
The Sand Ceremony is a lovely element to add to your Ceremony.
You are left with a lovely souvenir of your Special Day and the Vows you spoke and the Union that you share.

Sedona Best Man


This is Abner. He played quite a part in a recent Sedona Elopement.
Abner looked quite fetching in his Tuxedo Collar. He gave the Bride away, was the ring bearer. He also thoughtfully sat on her train so she wouldn’t float away in Bliss.
He was a great addition to the Wedding. And he got to have a lovely cool off in the Creek.
Having your Beloved pet at your Ceremony is a sweet touch.

A Happy Bride

I still am in awe of how perfect our wedding was, from beginning to end. There’s really a powerful combo of having time the day before the wedding with Akal to bond with the earth, the vortexes and with our spirits. It sets the stage for the wedding, and a foundation, to build upon with the connections of our spirits and energy that unites a couple in marriage… in perfect harmony.
The comments are pouring in at my blog and Facebook about how beautiful, powerful, and love filled our wedding looks in the pictures, description and video. People are saying their eyes fill up with tears or they actually weep while watching it. Just think if they had been there with us that on that mountain smack dab in the middle of vibrant, powerful, breathtaking action that only being married in Sedona can bring. I can thank Patricia, our photographer, for her energetic, giggling ways that instinctively knows when to snap the moment as if it had been rehearsed a million times. She almost seemed like another Super Hero, “Spidey Girl”; being everywhere at once click….click… finding all the tender, humorous, and big screen drama of our made for TV movie like wedding. Pinch me!! Our wedding photographs are heirlooms.
Thank you, Rev. Iala and Akal for taking our love story and turning it into a cover of a romance novel. Part of me laughs at saying that last statement, and the other part knows we asked the Universe to give us the wedding of our dreams, and then the Universe delivered it to us wrapped in turquoise skies, rich red dirt, Raven filled vistas and a couple in tune with our needs, desires and spiritual longings. Our wedding kicked it, didn’t it?! Oh man, as in Superman and Lille Lane, it sure did!

Madonna Rock


Madonna Rock is one of Sedona’s incredible Land marks.

Madonna Rock is located at the far side of Twin Buttes. She is enfolded by the Pinnacles known as The Three Sisters or the Nuns.

She watches over the Chapel built on the rocks. Madonna holds her Beloved Child and looks out over a wondrous Landscape that includes Bell Rock, Court House Butte, and Cathedral Rock. Her beauty is breathtaking.

Madonna rises up over Chapel Trail. This is one of our very favorite Wedding Sites. It is a large Red Rock Platform under Madonna reached by a 15 minute moderate Hike. The area is a powerfully magnetic and feminine Vortex. A perfect spot to nurture your Nuptials.

Sedona Wedding Witness

The Red Rocks of Sedona hold so many mysteries. Depending on the Light, the time of Day or year there are a multitude of Beings etched in the Rocks.
This majestic Red Rock Totem Bird stood sentinel above us for one Sedona Wedding.

A Sedona Prayer


You see these Piles of Rocks all over Sedona.
I call them Rock Stupas.
Each rock is a prayer balanced precariously on another prayer.
In some Vortex Spots there are hundreds of these piled up. Rock Gardens of Prayer.
This one was along Chapel Trail. It graced a wonderful Vow Renewal Ceremony. Our couple added two rocks or two prayers of their own.
Take a few deep breaths, relax and send your own prayers into the Rocks.
Many Blessings

Sedona Wedding Site – Sugar Loaf

Sugar Loaf is one of those sweet local spots. Not many visitors find it or even know how very special Sugar Loaf is. It’s known as the very Heart center of the Americas. An unassuming little Knoll in the middle of West Sedona. It has wonderful views of Thunder Mountain and Coffee Pot Rock and Chimney Rock. It’s a fabulous Wedding Site at Sunset. The light on the rocks is amazing and you are up close and personal with some beautiful Red Rocks.
The energy here is very heart centered and loving, gentle and sweet and accepting. In fact, Reverend Akal and I were married alongside sugar Loaf under a Tree that we now call the Wedding Tree. We visit it almost daily in our hikes and go there to renew our vows and connection whenever we feel the need. It’s definitely a favorite of ours.
This is a very easy hike to a spot we call the Singing Rock. Parking is limited in the lot but there is over flow available on the street.

Sedona Winter Wedding


This was a winter wonderland wedding. It took a lot of trust on the part of our Bride and Groom. All day long it was raining. Just before the Wedding it turned to snow. And there we were in a beautiful Winter Wonderland. Truly Sedona does not do ugly. She is beautiful in any weather and every day!

Our Bride and groom were thrilled. Snow is Sedona is fairly rare – they definitely were Blessed. No one even felt the cold. In fact – the Bride wore opened toed shoes through the snow drifts. We were on a a Snowy Cloud 9. And all the pictures are so fabulous!

I just have to share a few more pictures from that special day! It’s one we will never forget.

Sedona Ring Bearer

This little Angel was a sweet addition to one Sedona Wedding, She patiently waited with the rings around her neck until just the right moment. When I called her to come she pranced up to the altar bearing the rings. She brought a smile to all our hearts and a special touch of love to the Ceremony.

Your Sedona Wedding Party comes in all shapes and sizes and species.

This Wedding took place at Airport Vortex. It was an elopement on the coldest day that Sedona has experienced in many years. This lovely young couple were determined that that was their day and their time and nothing was going to stop them from Celebrating their Love. Surprisingly none of us felt the cold. When there is Love in the Air our hearts warm us from the inside.

Sedona Wedding Guest

An unexpected guest attended our Valentine’s Day Wedding on the banks of Oak Creek at Red Rock Crossing.

A duck is a great omen. Ducks mate for life and this handsome male was there with his mate. A very special blessing for the lucky couple.

Ducks also let everything flow off their back. They go with the flow in the Creek of life.

Duck is a powerful teacher. I always say when Quack Quack is headed your way – practice Duck Medicine and DUCK!!

The Sedona Bride and Groom

Such a gentle, rich and fulfilled moment and one that we are honored to be a part of.

Sedona Bride

Red Rock Crossing is a beautiful Wedding location in the early morning hours. The place is quiet – you might have some ducks swim by or a heron fly overhead – and once a horse came down to the water to drink.

Cathedral Rock at Red Rock crossing is the second most photographed spot in Arizona after the Grand Canyon. The morning hours here hold a special charm. Calm, quiet deserted. This is when Sedona’s magic really shines.

Cathedral stands tall and majestic above you and shimmers in the water below you.

Our beautiful Sedona Bride seems to be in Bliss. Soaking up the morning, the sun, the beauty and the love on her special day.

The Wedding Walk

I love the Wedding Walk. The new Mr and Mrs strolling towards their new life together. It’s like the first dance here in Sedona. This one is under the big shade trees of Oak Creek at Red Rock Crossing.

The Bride and Groom are always in a happy haze. We did it. We’re married!! Such a joyous walk in such a beautiful place.

This was especially happy because our groom contacted me 7 months before from active duty in Afghanistan!! I prayed for him until the moment he called me state side and said “I’m back, Reverend Iala. And I’m ready to get married.”

I was never so happy to see a Groom in all my life. I am sure his Bride felt the same way.

We like to honor all our men and women in service. That is why we have our 10% Military Discount on all packages.

Sedona Red Rock Views

This is the view of Cathedral Rock from Airport Vortex.

I love Airport Vortex for small, intimate elopements. Especially on a quiet weekday morning. Chances are we will have it all to our selves. A view of Cathedral like this in your Wedding album is priceless.

Wherever you go in Sedona there are amazing Red Rock backdrops. Each day and every hour of the day is unique. You never capture the same photo twice. The light, the clouds, the shadows reveal new aspects of the Rocks in every moment. Sedona is a very photogenic lady. Truly a photographer’s paradise and a Wedding Photographer’s Delight!

Love’s Longevity

This is one of the Giant Cottonwood Trees that you find along the banks of Oak Creek in Sedona.

They stand testament to many stories of many Brides and Grooms. Their majesty and their wisdom, their silent tales of many generations lends a special strength and support to a Sedona Wedding.
This Cottonwood tree is hundreds of years old and lends a wonderful backdrop to this couple along with a promise of Love’s enduring nature.

Sedona Wedding Site

Madonna Rock is a wonderful Wedding site. Only a 12 minute hike along the Chapel Trail and you find yourself on a Red Rock platform with a wall of Red Rocks rising up behind you, Madonna Rock and the Sisters enfolding you and sweeping Vista views of Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock and Courthouse Butte.
It truly is a breathtakingly spectacular location.
The energy here is very nurturing, magnetic and feminine.

Natures own Chapel Amphitheatre – perfect for your Sedona Wedding.

Beautiful Sedona


Sedona has been voted the most beautiful place in America. It’s moments like this rainbow over Courthouse Butte that earn Sedona this honor.
Sedona is full of breathtaking landscapes, vibrant Red Rocks, bluer than blue skies. Even a dark sky can yield up a treasure such as this rainbow.
There’s actually never a bad day or wrong time of the year to get married in Sedona. The views change from moment to moment. Photographers love it here – no two pictures are ever the same. The sky even when overcast blankets Sedona in Magic and Mystery.
Sedona is the perfect backdrop for your Sedona Wedding!

11-11-11

It’s not too early to begin thinking about 11-11-11 Weddings.
In fact this is a perfect time to book. Especially if you want the 11 a.m. time slot.

We have several packages we are creating for that day and three great Wedding Sites picked out. Red Rock Crossing, Huckabee Trailhead and Sweet Sugar Loaf at the Singing Rock. There are a limited number of Weddings at each location – another reason to plan ahead and reserve your spot and your package!

Each of these locations are breathtakingly beautiful and easily accessible.

I’ll outline the packages in future postings and post them on our website as well.

Many Vendors are charging more for their services that day and the Forestry will insist on shuttles for large Wedding parties so keep that in mind when budgeting for that special day.

We will make it as smooth and stress free and magical as possible for you and your Sedona Wedding.

11-11-11 promises to be a major portal, gateway and opening to a life filled with Love and Happiness – a fantastic day to get married and a magnificent day to get married in Sedona.

Sedona’s powerful magnetic field will intensify the Love and the Joy.

Early November is a lovely time in Sedona. The leaves are vibrant colors adding to the awesome beauty of the Red Rocks.

Stay tuned for those packages – they are coming soon.

Less is More

This photo is of a very ecstatic Ralph and Marcy on their Sedona Wedding Day last September.

Ralph and Marcy are highschool sweethearts with a great story. They went their own way in life and both got married to other people. It was Ralph’s ex-wife of 19 years who found Marcy on the internet and gave her contact info to Ralph!!

They reconnected and have been together ever since.

Ralph took great pains to arrange the perfect Sedona elopement.
He booked our Sedona Memories Package

We arranged the site permit and met him at the Back o’ Beyond Trailhead with a photographer, officiant and one witness. That’s when Ralph and Marcy realized they left their wedding rings back at the hotel.

Thinking quickly our witness fashioned two beautiful rings from some red string he found in his car. We all laughed so much at these new rings and yet when the time came to exchange rings and the strings were blessed and they tied them on each others fingers – those rings became a symbol of all they had been through to come to that moment. There were tears in all of our eyes as those string rings became more precious than gold.

Less really is more – you can tell by their Leap of Joy!

Super Sedona Wedding Post

Superman and his Beloved Lille were very happy with their Sedona Wedding – I wanted to share with you their comment to yesterdays blog:

NEWS FLASH – Superman Marries Lille Lane

On September 22, 2010 Superman married his Lois Lane or Miss Lille at airport Vortex. It was the Fall Equinox and a powerful day and a powerful Ceremony.

They chose our Sedona Song Wedding Package. It was a two day never to be forgotten event.

Lille and Superman went out onto the Vortexes with Akal and had a chance to really connect with the energies have a transformational experience. Together they chose the Wedding site that they both Superman and Lille resonated with.

The Wedding Day was very intense – everything from sunshine to hail!
I was not worried a bit. I knew that the Spirit of Sedona would shine on us all and that Airport would shelter us for as long as we needed. Sure enough the sun came out the minute we all arrived and we had exactly enough sun to get us through the entire ceremony and lots of photos after wards. Lille and Superman were truly blessed. The rain around us was another level of Blessing – a special anointing by the Divine and a great gift to the desert.


Lille tells the story best on her blog. And she’s made a lovely little video so I’ll let her take over from here.

Sedona Wedding Sites – the Tipi Temple

The Sedona Tipi Temple is the most unique Wedding Location you will find.
In the shadow of Thunder Mountain this beautiful Tipi Temple is large enough for a party of approx. 20 people. The circle shape echoes the circle of your rings and your eternal love. Inside the Tipi Rises high over your head and has the feeling of a pyramid. The acoustics are amazing and the interior walls are the same magenta hue of the local claret cup cactus flowers. The walls themselves have been filled with crystals during construction which amplifies the energy of this spot.

The Tipi Temple is a wonderful location for our Shamanic Wedding package or at the very least some drumming and singing!!

You can learn more about the Tipi temple at our Tipi Temple Package page.

A Sedona Tipi Temple Wedding is very Sacred and very private. This is a beautiful jewel hidden in the heart of the Red Rocks.

Wedding Sites – Tlaquepaque

Tlaquepaque is a quaint, old Mexican style shopping mall right on Oak Creek. There are cobble stoned courtyards and a lovely little chapel for your Ceremony. For more info on the Chapel see our Sedona Chapels Package

Even if you go for a Ceremony out on the Red Rocks this little jewel is a great place for a photo session either before or after your Ceremony.

There’s plenty of parking, easy walking access for everyone and an old world charm that is remarkable and uniquely southwestern.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Bell Rock

Bell Rock is a well known Sedona Monument. It has great views of the valley in front of it with Courthouse Rock beside it and Twin Buttes and Cathedral in the distance. This site has very electric and powerful energy.

Bell Rock is a male Vortex. We call it Pa Bell because it gives you a direct line to the Creator. It is a great place to send up your prayers and intentions for your Marriage. It acts like a giant transmitter. Your vows and commitments to each other will be definitely heard and noted by the Divine.

There is plenty of parking and it is accessible with a moderate 10 minute hike.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Airport Vortex


Airport Vortex is one of my all time favorite places on the planet. This Vortex has such powerful and transformational energy. This is an electric/magnetic Vortex. That means it is balanced between male and female. The above Wedding was part of our Sedona Song Package

This is a two day event. On day one the bride and groom went on a powerful Vortex Tour with our Shaman, Akal. He took them out to many of the Weddings sites, helped them access the energies and prepared them for their Wedding Day. On this tour the Bride and Groom have an opportunity to really feel which site they both resonate with. This couple chose Airport Vortex and so the next day their lovely, intimate Wedding was held on Airport. I’ll post more about this Ceremony on a later date.

Airport is perfect for small weddings, parking is very limited and the access path can be daunting to Wedding guests. The photo ops are incredible. On your hike in you have sweeping views of all of West Sedona including Cockscomb, Bear Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Coffeepot, Wilson Mountain and Shiprock. At the Wedding Site you have views of Twin Buttes, Lee Mountain, Courthouse, Bell Rock and Cathedral.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Lover’s Knoll

Lover’s Knoll is just off a windy mountain road with world class views. There have been many car commercials filmed on this road. Spreading before you are Twin Buttes, Schnebley Hill, Lee Mountain, Courthouse Butte and Cathedral.

Sunset is the optimum time at this site and Sunset on a full Moon night cannot be beat anywhere on Planet Earth. Indescribable beauty, lighting and energy, a Wedding here on the Full Moon would be legendary.

It’s got easy access and ample parking – an unbeatable choice – as I said on any sunset night and on a Full Moon Sunset it becomes transcendent.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Huckabee Hollow

Huckabee is the start of a trail head a short way up Schnebley Hill.

I found this lovely spot that is a natural Ampitheater surrounded by gorgeous Red Rock formations and an incredible Vista of all of Sedona spreading out before you.

Imagine your Ceremony in the shade of a twisted Vortex Juniper on a Red Rock platform with the Red Monoliths of Schnebley Hill rising up above
you.

There are a lot of pros to this site. Can reach this site with any kind of vehicle so no need for the expense of renting jeeps. Very easy access for all ages. Lots of parking. Even a bathroom/change room at the trail head. Quiet and secluded. A very memorable and unique location for your Sedona Wedding.

You can also benefit from the powerful and uplifting Vortex Energy of this amazing Red Rock Butte.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Isis Overlook

Isis Overlook is a real hidden gem. It is a sweet little Red Rock knoll with views that sweep around you in a 360 degree span of unparalleled beauty. To the West is Cockscomb and Doe Mesa rolling into Bear Mountain and Boynton canyon then comes the great pillars of Isis temple Or Isis Rock then all the Secret canyon Wilderness and Brim’s Mesa and then the back end of Thunder Mountain. it is right in the center of an amphitheater of Red Rock Glory.

Access is over a bumpy dirt road. This can be done with a small party but you will have so much more fun accessing this site on the back of a jeep. This is a real adventure setting. It is still not far to go in a regular car and there is some parking. Though without jeeps this is a site for small wedding parties or elopements.

You really get a sense of the majesty of nature and the indescribable beauty and power of Sedona at Isis Overlook.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Magic Vista

Magic Vista is one of those hidden treasures. I have dubbed it ‘Magic” because it truly is a magical little spot. The views are unbeatable.
You are right in the shadow and the heart centered energy of SugarLoaf, Thunder Mountain rises above you with Coffee Pot (or Horus Rock). As you turn you have a magnificent 360 degree view. From Horus Rock your eye comes to Soldier’s Pass and Brim’s Mesa (called Brim because an original settler kept his prize bull – Brim up there grazing) and then Wilson Mountain and Shiprock and then Schnebley Hill and around to the Twin Buttes and Airport Vortex!

I just thought of another great reason to call it ‘Magic Vista’. Walt Disney lived in Sedona for awhile and many of the whimsical street names were given by him. He was inspired by Sedona and at Disney Land he made his focal piece “Magic Mountain” which was modeled after Thunder Mountain!

This hidden little gem is the absolute easiest access Wedding Site in all of Sedona. No long hike, no climb. just pull up, park walk a few hundred feet on a flat well kept trail and you are there. The ideal times at this location are Sunset and anytime on weekends.

Magic Vista is a personal favorite of mine because I love the energy of Sugar Loaf – it is the heart Center of Sedona and the Americas and that’s some powerful energy to have in your Wedding Ceremony and a great way to begin your married life together.

Wedding Sites – Back O’ Beyond

Back O’ Beyond is a fabulous spot for a Wedding. You are right on a Red Rock platform on the side of Cathedral Rock – Cathedral’s great spires rise behind you. There are breathtaking Vistas of Bell Rock, Courthouse and Twin Buttes.

This is another magnetic Vortex – I call this the ‘Womb with a View’. Very nurturing, calming and loving energy.

This site is approached with a 7 minute moderate climb. Not good for Grandma but great for small parties and elopements.

The trees here grow up in spirals in response to the energy. This is a breathtaking and romantic and definitely unforgettable Sedona Wedding site. It is one of the reasons that Sedona is a great Destination Wedding location.
