in Getting Married In Sedona is a Magical and Beautiful Experience

There is magic in every Sedona wedding. But over the many years of marrying all kinds of couples, we’ve noticed some specific “signs” that appear at weddings that have a more-special-than-usual feel. Here is our take on the seven secret signs that indicate a particularly ecstatic union.

Sign #1: Guest Appearances by Wildlife

When critters arrive at an outdoor Sedona wedding ceremony, they may bring a special blessing to the couple that can only be transferred by them. Duck may appear bearing the blessing of great abundance. Ravens overhead may signal a strong mystical union. A male and female frog pair may be an indication of a strong, lifelong bond.

Bride and groom can take a moment, if they choose, to clear their minds and meditate upon the honored guest(s), allowing Spirit to speak to them and bring them the blessings of nature on their magical day.

Sign #2: Precipitation Before, During or After the Ceremony

Does the thought of an outdoor wedding bring up fears of inclement weather? Well, you need to be comfortable with your choices, of course. And we have graciously and seamlessly guided couples to cover whenever needed.  But as for the sudden display of nature our couples usually say, “Snow what!”  And that’s because a shower’s clearing or wedding whiteness in winter make some of the most stunning weddings possible.

snow what!

Whether the weather is rain or snow or hail, precipitation has long been acknowledged as an auspicious sign of spiritual clearing and purification. If you should be so fortunate as to experience this blessing of nature, you can be assured your union is starting with a fresh, clean slate for you and your beloved to write upon and the new growth that follows the rains.

Sign #3: Rainbow Magic

This is an easy one! There’s nothing as magical as spotting an incandescent multi-colored arc suddenly appearing in the sky overhead as you make your vows or drive to or from the ceremony.

Rainbows are a brilliant sign of good fortune, a radiant reflection of the glory of higher worlds coalescing into the physical plane. How amazing to see the colors stretch across the sky over the land especially for you on your wedding day. It will absolutely make your heart leap with joy!

Sign #4: Wedding Orbs

Sometimes you can only feel the magic around you, but not see it…until it shows up in your photographs as beautiful circles of light.

Orbs have been said to indicate the presence of angels, fairies or loved ones who are with you in spirit. When you see these in your photographs you can be sure that you have been visited by some very special company who are making their presence known to you.

Sign #5: Spontaneous Displays of Great Joy

Elation moving through the bride and groom is always a good sign at any wedding ceremony. But there is something about being outdoors in the great expanse of nature, in the elevating vortex energy of Sedona, that really lends itself to spontaneous displays of great joy.

Sign #6: The Look of Love

Nothing compares to the energy of the heart shining in the eyes of someone in love as they gaze at their beloved. This transfer of love energy is one of the clearest signs of an ecstatic union. Call it adoration, elevation, radiation–whatever it is called, it is beautiful to behold.
