Every wedding teaches me a thing or two about life, cultures or people.  Enter Leigha & Adam’s Maggiano’s Las Vegas wedding.  I loved Leigha right from the get go.  From our email correspondence I knew she was a spunky, witty gal.  Meeting in person confirmed this!  I was excited to be working with her and Adam but I was a bit shocked on the wedding day when dealing with all their guests who had travelled from the midwest. Everyone was just OH SO NICE.  Don’t get me wrong…we have wonderful couples with great guests, but something was different here.  Leigha schooled me a bit on what is known as “Hoosier Hospitality” and from my experience it means the most polite, accommodating and helpful group of people I’ve had the pleasure to work with.  I couldn’t get over it!
Leigha & Adam opted to do a First Look on the wedding day, followed by some pictures around fabulous Las Vegas.  How great are these pictures in Downtown Vegas with the graffiti and Leigha’s killer beautiful eyes??  Guests were invited to a ceremony at Mandalay Bay followed by a reception at Maggiano’s.  Purple and green (it was St. Patricks day weekend after all!) accented the floral.  A destination wedding in Las Vegas includes great entertainment, right?  Cue Mr. Elvis Presley!  Great as always to surprise guests with a fun, interactive performance.
