April 11 came and went, we're anxiously awaiting the rest of our photos. Once they come in I'll do a day in review. Our photographers said they'd give us one sneak peek, but they couldn't decide so they gave us eight!

The last one of the two of you looking at is eachother is sooo sweet. I love the one under the sign, what a beautiful shot!
Thank you! The entire day was perfect and fun, we're so happy it shows in the pictures.
Holy cow your flowers are gorgeous!
Thank you! This was my first go at making bouquets, the one in the pictures is the second reincarnation. I made m bouquet and then I did two others for my ladies and I liked them more, so I took mine apart and redid it. I also made boutineers for the guys and a fancy flower for my Mom to wear.
I bought all of my flowers from the dollar store since we were on a very tight budget, I was SO happy they had my colors available!
Love that location!! Congrats u/CapnM. Looking forward to your post!
Thank you! We picked the location with pictures in mind.
As a photographer. You are awesome for that. Your pictures are very well done. Congratulations!
Thank you. Pictures were at the top of our must have list because they will last, and being a graphic designer I care very much about how things look. We are very impressed with the photos we've seen so far I knew this guy was good but he's gotten even better!
You and your bouquet are gorgeous! And what a fun idea for a wedding location! I'm thinking the closest ghost town to my friends and family is like 2 hours out on the way to Vegas. There definitely aren't hotels nearby. How did all of your guests feel about commuting to a local ghost town near you? Were there local hotels nearby?
We live in the Las Vegas valley and we had our ceremony at Nelson Ghost Town. We let guests know they didn't have to drive out to Nelson if they didn't want to, they could meet us at the reception in town.
I made my bouquet myself from dollar store flowers, a few brooches and colored craft wire. I wanted something fun that would look great in photos.
I am completely shocked that I can look as good as I did, I'm still amazed with my hair and make up (I hardly ever do much with both).
You are simply stunning! And you guys are a great looking couple.
Aww shucks, thank you! :)
Funny story... we were at a wedding there in November of last year for our friends' wedding. The pictures were so cool! There were so many other groups around us doing photo shoots, too. The bride and groom were nice enough to have the photographer take individual pictures of the three other couples who were attending (so there were 8 of us total, including bride/groom). Our picture turned out so nice that we're using it on our Save The Dates!
Congrats to you!
It's such a beautiful background for pictures, that was super cool of the married couple to lend their photographer for you too.
When we were out there were a couple other photographer groups. Everyone was nice enough to stay away from the married couple though. We want to go back and rent some ATVs or kayaks and check out the Colorado River.
That's a really cool idea for a location!
We wanted something outdoors, a bit unique and the touch of history had us sold!
