“Of all the places they’ve traveled in the world, there is one that holds more meaning above all the others to Matthew and Adrianna. On that desert cliff, listening to the wind whistle through the monstrous canyons that seemed to trickle on to infinity, their lives changed forever and for the better. Nantucket, Aruba, Hawaii, Napa; those incredible destinations couldn’t compare with the romance and the significance of that day visiting the Grand Canyon. Because it’s the day that he bent one knee into the red dust and asked her to be his bride. Sigh. Their love is grand, filling the depths of those canyons and expanding past the stars in the deep purple sky that blankets the Arizona desert.”
Matt & Adrianna’s engagement story is almost as romantic as their plum and silver wedding! This stunning day was shot by KKP associate Riane Roberts, and I can’t tell you how elated I was scrolling through each and every gorgeous capture! What stuck with me most where their sunlit desert portraits, the first they’d ever taken as husband and wife. They walked hand-in-hand with the Arizona sun flooding the golden desert around them, and they’re so sweet and joyful that I couldn’t help but smile. Those precious moments were the ones they’d been waiting for as the months slowly went by leading up to their “I do’s.” From a bubble exit from their ceremony to personalized prescription candy bottles at their reception (what else would a pharmacist give!), every detail was so meticulously and beautifully planned, showing how much care went into this day. Matt & Adrianna, I am so incredibly blessed to have you two in my life. You are two of the most caring, genuine, kind people I’ve ever met, and I know your marriage is going to thrive and grow through everything that life throws at you! You were meant for each other and your love is too sweet for words! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Pruitt!!
