Modern Scottsdale Wedding at Mountain Shadows Resort

Eliyza & Al’s wedding at Mountain Shadows Resort in Scottsdale was truly unforgettable. From the moment guests arrived, they were welcomed by a beautiful sign and stunning florals that perfectly complemented the desert backdrop. Cocktail hour featured a lively jazz band while guests mingled before being led into dinner by a fun horn procession that brought incredible energy to the evening. Eliyza & Al then shared the most beautiful first dance before the celebration continued with an amazing band that kept the dance floor full all night. One of the most touching moments of the evening was a heartfelt and perfectly delivered speech from best man Nick that had everyone laughing and emotional at the same time.

As the night continued, guests enjoyed a late-night cigar bar and one of the most fun dessert experiences of the evening with fresh cannolis made by Mike, who quickly became part of the celebration by dancing with guests while filling cannolis to order. Between the music, the laughter, and the incredible energy in the room, the night ended with late-night bites and a relaxed after-party where everyone could soak in the final moments of an unforgettable celebration. It was such an honor to help bring Eliyza & Al’s vision to life!


The Best Team!

J Starr is the absolute best! When we first got on a call with Jennifer, we instantly knew her team would be the perfect fit for our needs. Though, when we met Adrianna (our lead planner), the stars truly aligned. Working with Adrianna was such a pleasure. She was knowledgeable, kind, and understanding to all our wants- all the qualities you’d want while going thru the process of wedding planning. She really knew all the ins and outs of the business, and became a true friend throughout the process. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives, and a huge contributor to that was J Starr and their amazing team. We cannot recommend them enough!”
