Magical Day at JW Marriott | Las Vegas Wedding Photographer

When you walk into the JW Marriott, you’re immediately blown away by the greenery surrounding the property (and if you know anything about Vegas, greenery like this is hard to come by)! I knew immediately that Cori & Luke’s wedding there was going to be one for the books because anytime Melina from Starry Eyed Events plans a wedding, it’s STELLAR. And boy, was I right about that!

Cori & Luke are so fun and full of magic when they’re together and their wedding encapsulated exactly that. Oh can you not tell from their wedding photos? Then you have to check out their Charleston engagement session for even more proof! They are so fun, in fact, that at their wedding they surprised everyone with a performance of Die With a Smile by Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars and a choreographed dance number, too! Does it get any more exciting than that??

And can we have a moment for Cori’s gorgeous bridal moment? Her gown was an off the shoulders wrap dress. The down-the-back pearl feature was such a classic nod to wedding dresses. She paired it with a long veil with floral appliqué. And she. was. stunning.

It was a complete dream being able to photograph these two magnetic humans on their wedding day at the JW Marriott. And from the sound of it, they felt the same. Here’s what Cori & Luke had to say:

“…If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to document your wedding in the most authentic and artistic way, someone who will make you feel beautiful and confident in ways you never expected, and someone who is just a pure joy to be around and talk to, please stop your search here and inquire with Katelyn…”

At the end of the night when they were leaving the JW Marriott and their wedding, that had a private dance moment, just the two of them! Afterward, they ran out of the venue while their guests waved gold streamers, a beautiful choice for those who aren’t feeling the sparkler vibe. Overall, the day was pure perfection and I hope you see that in every photo.
