Allie + Taylor | An Effortlessly Elegant Black and White Themed Wedding at Blackstone Country Club
Allie and Taylor's wedding at the Blackstone Country Club in Arizona was a sophisticated celebration I’ll never forget! From the elegant black and white wedding color palette to the luxurious venue and modern decor, every aspect of their special day was simply stunning. Allie and Taylor are such a fun and joyful couple who adore their family and friends. Their day was a truly beautiful reflection of their love for each other and the people who mean the most to them - I felt so lucky to be a part of it!
Allie and Taylor's story is one that proves that sometimes, love takes a little patience and just the right timing! They first met at Allie's sister's wedding where they both were in the wedding party. Taylor thought Allie was a total babe, but as fate would have it Allie had a boyfriend at the time... but Allie and Taylor both now say that the feeling then was mutual:) A year later Allie was single, and Taylor was in town for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. He ran the idea of a double date by Allie’s sister, and the rest - as they say - is history! Taylor asked Allie to marry him on October 9th, 2021, when she thought they were going out to a special dinner to celebrate her 25th birthday. She had no idea that both of their families would be there, waiting and watching the special moment take place! They had a wonderful evening celebrating their engagement and were so excited to plan their wedding and begin their lives together.
Allie and Taylor were married at the Blackstone Country Club located in the beautiful Sonoran desert in Arizona. This is a truly breathtaking wedding venue, with an atmosphere of effortless elegance and romantic sophistication. The clubhouse offered a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces, including a grand ballroom, a spacious outdoor terrace, and a gorgeous intimate courtyard. The exquisite stone architecture and upscale furnishings perfectly complemented Allie and Taylor’s classy black and white wedding color palette and refined decor. Their wedding ceremony was held on the spacious club lawn, which boasts lush green grass and a beautifully crafted wood-framed arbor adorned with delicate flowers. The surrounding landscape provided the most incredible view, with the golden hues of the desert in the foreground, and the majestic Arizona mountains in the distance. I could not dream up a more perfect setting!
The country club’s gorgeous stone courtyard hosted Allie and Taylor’s wedding reception under sparkling strung lights and the Arizona desert sky. The black and white wedding color palette was elevated and refined, and every detail of the decor was elegance at its finest! The tablescapes were some of the most beautiful I have ever seen, with white linens, white floral arrangements, and black and gold accents. Allie and Taylor danced the night away with their guests, and it was simply the best to get to capture all the fun and laughter and joy!
Allie and Taylor, I’m so glad I got to be a part of your incredible day – cheers to you both as you begin this beautiful new journey together!
