Jessica and Carl – An Arizona Spring Wedding

by Niki - Inspired Bride 1 Comment

Springtime in Phoenix means warm weather, cloudless skies, and the sweet smell of orange blossoms flooding the old citrus-tree-filled neighborhoods. It’s a magical time of year.

It was only fitting, therefore, that Jessica and Carl, two New Yorkers who fell in love watching the cherry blossoms bloom, get married in Arizona. Jessica and Carl met in 2005 at Georgetown University in Washington DC, where they were both getting their Master’s Degrees.  However, the exact moment they met is still up for debate. They had been waiting for this day for years, and when it was finally here, it was as breathtaking and as sweet as cherry trees in full bloom.

For Carl and Jessica – both medical residents in New York – this was a destination wedding!
