This January wedding brought us a little adventure and a whole lot of fun!  Patti and her ladies began prepping with the Beauty team of Amelia C & Co at the Cosmopolitan before we headed over to Cili at Bali Hai Golf Club for a picturesque ceremony overlooking the golf course.  The group at By Dzign put the floral together, Wanda Tracey officiated and the ceremony music rang beautifully thanks to Classical Entertainment which included a lovely song performed by Patti’s daughter making it a truly special touch to this sweet couples wedding day.

After a few portraits around the golf course at Bali Hai we headed off to the Bellagio for some iconic Vegas portraits with the fountains before heading to Nora’s Italian Cuisine for dinner.

This is blog post is just a tiny peek at the many images captured on the wedding day so although we did not post photos from dinner at Nora’s Italian Cuisine rest assured, the ambiance and food were incredible!  Now, before you glance at the next set of images and ask how in the world we were able to go from the Cosmo > Bali Hai > Bellagio > Nora’s > then the Palms with an entire group of guests all in one day, the answer is found in the hands of Patti and Fernando’s wedding planner, Pauline Clute.  Paulina and her team were always 10 steps ahead making it possible for an easy transition for this entire group of out of town guests to take this adventure with us.  We have been photographing weddings for decades and sometimes even what we think is a simple room flip or just going from one location for a ceremony to another for a reception on one property can be surprisingly stressful.  But multiple locations in one day??? – Paulina handled it like a true professional which allowed us to do our job and focus on making it a great experience so a little shout out is due to Paulina and her team! 🙂

We did, in fact, wrap the day with an epic party in a lush suite at Palms Place where DJ Shai Peri kept the dance floor going all night (I may have danced a bit myself).  Events with a Twist stirred up some beautiful cocktails and the view… well, it speaks for itself.  JMC and I had a wonderful time with this couple and their friends and family not to mention the great crew of professionals that they brought in to assure the perfect day!  Congrats to Patti and Fernando and we hope to catch you on your next visit to Las Vegas for some celebratory drinks!

Much Love,

JMC and Dalisa
