Gabrielle & Jordan. Reno Temple Wedding.

“My Forever Friend” are the words inscribed on the inside of Jordan’s wedding band. And for Gabrielle & Jordan, those words are so, so true. They have been best friends for the longest time…they met while attending school in Idaho & quickly became the best of friends. They found that they had so much in common & loved spending time together-whether it was on a hike, biking or simply just being together. Theirs is a true, deep love which holds its roots in friendship. Being married to your best friend gives life a beautiful silver lining-just knowing that your best friend is by your side through thick & think makes life better. Easier. And so much more beautiful. And that’s so true for Gabrielle & Jordan. They were married last Saturday in the Reno LDS Temple & their mile-wide grins made it obvious that they were thrilled to be marrying their forever best friend.

I’ve been looking forward to this wedding for awhile-Gabrielle attended my photography workshop back in October & we chatted about her wedding details. I was so excited when she booked me as her photographer because I knew their day would be just like Gabrielle-classic, gorgeous & totally fabulous. I loved, loved, LOVED Gabrielle’s custom made dress, her chunky jewelry & Jordan’s grey suit. Sooooooo classy-they both looked incredible! Their beautiful reception was held at the California Building-it’s such a great place for wedding receptions…it’s definitely my favorite venue in Reno for wedding receptions. I loved all the fun details from their reception-the beautiful Christmas trees lining the building, the pinecone & crystal accents, the Hot Chocolate station, the miniature Bundt cakes & the candy station. Every detail was perfect for the Winter season & I was happy to see that they embraced the season & showed how gorgeous a Winter wedding can be!

Gabrielle & Jordan-I loved working with you. Let me rephrase that: I loooooooooooooved working with you. You are a darling couple & I loved to see that you truly are each other’s best friends. I wish you all the love, adventure & friendship in the world-I know without a doubt that your lives together will be just as fabulous as the both of you are. With much love…xoxo, marielle.

The Reno Temple was cold…but so gorgeous…

I was lucky enough to have my friend KayLynne assist me. Her photograph is on the left.

Their wedding cake was from Nothing Bundt Cakes. Their cakes are divine…and sooooo adorable!

I love, love, LOVE when couples have a candy bar at their reception. I have the biggest sweet tooth on planet earth so it makes me extra happy when I see these!

Which one is your favorite?
