Summer Wedding at Cactus and Tropicals Greenhouse || Draper, Utah

I’ve been waiting with anticipation to share this lovely greenhouse wedding from last summer! It’s definitely one of my favorites. All of this warm weather is making me giddy. Wedding season is here!

Aisha & Ben met in high school and started dating during their senior year. Ben asked Aisha to a school dance. She was so nervous, but it turned out that she really liked him. They have been best friends ever since! At the wedding, Aisha’s family talked about having Ben over for dinner back then and how he just became part of the family after that. Then Aisha & Ben both served LDS missions after graduating. Happily, it all worked out. They were so excited to be getting married!

Aisha & Ben’s wedding day at the Provo City Center Temple was warm and beautiful. Aisha was such a gorgeous bride! Of all of the wedding dresses I have ever photographed, I get the most compliments and questions about hers. The dress came from an online European store, and it was a screamin’ deal! She is the coolest. Aisha’s mom is from Switzerland and they both speak French fluently. Many other members of the bride’s family were able to make the journey abroad to be here for the wedding as well. It was so fun for the couple to have them all here!

The reception that evening took place at Cactus and Tropicals in Draper. The celebration began with a ring ceremony during which all of the bridesmaids and groomsmen got to share stories about the bride and groom. Some of the bridesmaids read cute texts and notes that Aisha had written about Ben back in high school. It was really sweet. The greenhouse venue was so pretty and just full of flowers! The bride and groom and their guests had a great time dancing the night away.

Right after the wedding, Aisha & Ben headed straight for Europe to attend a big family reunion. They decided to go a little early and ended up honeymooning in Europe for several weeks. Since their marriage, they have traveled the world together and are doing the coolest things.

Congratulations, Aisha & Ben! I hope you enjoy reliving your best day again and again through these photos. Thank you for choosing me as your wedding photographer.

P.S. Invite me on your next European vacation! I can fit inside a carry-on.
