Rebecca and Zack knew they wanted their romantic reception to be held beneath the stars in the orange groves of Mesa , Arizona. They also knew they would need some extra help bringing their vision to life, so they contacted Arizona wedding coordinator and Signature Events owner, Charlee Geisler .

“The natural beauty of the orange groves provided the perfect setting for us to make Rebecca and Zack’s dreams a reality. When we started,” Charlee continues, “the reception site was a gravel lot in the middle of rows of orange trees. There were no lights, no power, and no restrooms, but we made it into something magical.”

The theme was “Starry Night,”  and Charlee wanted to incorporate the stars as much as possible. However, since it was also April in Arizona, she wanted guests to be comfortable, which meant brining in air conditioning. “We decided to go with a clear tent so that guests would feel like they really were under the stars. The design elements we incorporated included soft white draping for the walls, twinkle lighting overhead, and hanging illuminated multipoint stars from the top of the tent to enhance the romantic effect.”

Throughout the night, guests were able to enjoy the beauty of the Arizona spring, while dining and dancing in cool comfort. The romantic tone set by the twinkle lights and  draping was further heightened by the elegant blue and white centerpieces, sparkling crystal, and navy blue linens.

To complete the evening, the bride and groom cut the cake and shared a kiss as perfectly timed fireworks erupted over the grove, completing the perfect, romantic starry night.
