Elegant Jewish Wedding at Scottsdale Omni Montelucia



Wow! What a day! I wish there was a button I could push to go back and replay this wedding day over again! Only this time I would make one change - I'd actually get to *attend* this wedding as a guest! and take part in their beautiful wedding day and dance the night away at one of the most hyped wedding receptions I have every seen!

There is a reason these two (Mr. and Mrs. Tauber) coined their unique wedding day #Taubchella, not only because of their love for music festivals but because they are  highly capable of throwing one heck of a night full of dancing, crazy light sticks and a energetic vibe that captivated everyone and got them on the dance floor! It was amazing and a beautiful way to kick off their marriage!

Zach and Alex! Wow what a journey that led to such a unique and truly amazing wedding day! From your perfect florals, to your tearful first look and ceremony full of smiles, this was a perfect day. I am so happy for you both and cannot wait to see what life holds for you two!
All our best!  Jenn, Kayla and the Studio girls

"I had so many great moments, it is hard to pinpoint just one but I think in terms of the day was waking up and realizing it was MY wedding day and I was going to get to marry the love of my life in just a few hours. It was almost surreal and still is! I think getting ready was a highlight and being surrounded by my best friends and family. Being in so many weddings for my other friends, it was weird for it to be roles reversed and it was truly such a special time knowing that everyone was there to support me and help me through this special day!" - Alexelegant white wedding dress hanging at the Montelucia and groom's details

I was just in awe of how beautiful she looked, and at the moment everything set in that today was actually the day we're going to be getting married. It was truly an amazing moment!"-Zach

Everything from the early morning of that day til the late night was perfect, and I know we will never forget anything about the special day."-Zach

While creating my vision, I gravitated to soft, romantic colors and details and ended up choosing blush, champagne, white (as an ode to the classic wedding look), mauve and gold. I was so happy with how everything turned out - it was truly exactly what we envisioned. For the details, we had a unique opportunity to highlight our names because we are A & Z so a lot of the little details like our invitations, napkins, guest book signage, etc. accentuated our initials!"-Alex

"I think my favorite part was from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM. This timeframe consisted of the ceremony followed by us being able to hang out just the two of us while everyone was at cocktail hour. The ceremony was amazing, and something we'll never forget, but being able to hang out just the two of us before the reception was really a special time where we could take everything in and get excited about what is to come for the rest of the night."-Zach

"Yes! So someway, somehow Wilbur the Wildcat and Sparky the Sundevil were both able to make it to our wedding. I have to say that I honestly can't take too much credit for this as Zach orchestrated the whole thing! Zach's sister went to a wedding last year where Wilbur made an appearance so that's what initially gave us the idea and it was too perfect because as you know we went to rival schools (I went to ASU and Zach went to UofA) so we thought how fun it would be to have them make a special appearance. Zach reached out to both athletic departments, coordinated and followed up and followed up until we were able to secure both of them for our special day. It was a complete surprise to all of our guests (I think only my sister, Zach's parents and Zach's sister knew) so that was definitely a highlight to see everyone (even those with no affinity to either school) get excited! It was a perfect way to kick off our reception!"-Alex

"Taking our snack break after family photos was hilarious (definitely needed :)) and probably my favorite moment of the reception... I had to go to the bathroom right as the dancing began and during that time I guess the DJ handed out those glow sticks that Zach created on Etsy so I come back from the bathroom and everyone was just going wild - I was like "where am I" but it was so amazing that literally EVERYONE was on the floor dancing and just having the best time."-Alexbride and grandma dancing at ballroom reception at Montelucia
We wish you guys all the best!!
