Over New Year’s weekend, we serviced a Sedona elopement for Cameron at Black Tie Optional, a wedding planner we work with often. We took the bride and groom and their group, in our largest vehicle, from Scottsdale to Sedona for the ceremony, to dinner in Sedona, and back to Scottsdale. Not only was the ceremony in Sedona magical, but the newlyweds were able to spend time with their favorite people enjoying the excitement on the way to Sedona, and celebrating their love on the way home.
