The Market at Vincent's on Camelback

Yesterday I went to Vincent's on Camelback for their Saturday market. They have fabulous food, farmer's market, and many booths. It makes for a great way to spend your Saturday morning. The shopping is a blast! They have so much stuff to choose from, champagne, jewelry (much from over seas), handbags, honey, pastas, mustards, candles, soaps and tableclothes from France, jellies, spices, flowers, and much more! I love going there with my family to enjoy the market together.

Vincent's is at 40th St and Camelback, and are open from 9am to 1pm every Saturday from October thru April. I so recommend going and trying the carved ham, rack of lamb, huge roasted chickens (your choice for $10 , includes potatoes and grilled veggies). Or choose a pizza for $8, custom ordered and cooked in their outdoor pizza oven. Add a bottle of champagne, and you have a feast!

Here are some photos of the market--so much I can't blog it all!

Wedding at Phoenix Annual Parade of the Arts!

This was one of the most unusual and most fun weddings I have
ever been to. My best friend, Phaedra, got married to Ryan this
past Saturday. The setting was the Phoenix Annual Parade of
the Arts! The ceremony took place before the parade, on a stage
where the parade was starting and finishing from. It was colorful,
casual, and creative. Ryan helps put on the amazing parade, and
he and Phaedra thought what a better location than the parade they
both love to attend. Many friends helped put the wedding together,
for Ryan and Phaedra have a TON of friends each! They are both
very loved and everyone is glad that they are finally officially husband
and wife!

Following are images of Phaedra getting ready at the salon, some formals,
the ceremony, wedding reception, and the parade. The parade was like
the grand finale of the reception!





This is one of my favorite shots of the day, Phaedra under the hairdryer.



Phaedra and her children, Iain and Kaya.

Amazing cake, made by Bianca, our maid of honor.
