There is a specific kind of magic that happens when you’ve known your person since middle school. You’ve seen every version of each other, grown up side-by-side, and built a foundation that’s as solid as it gets. Dylan and Kiersten Fuller’s January 16th wedding was the perfect reflection of that journey—a day that was every bit as warm, moody, and intimate as the love story that inspired it.
It Started with Chemistry
Their story didn't begin under the neon lights of the Strip; it started in an 8th-grade science class. By junior year of high school, they were officially dating, and they’ve been making each other laugh ever since.
When it came time for Dylan to propose, he chose a spot woven into the fabric of their relationship: the Mission Inn in Riverside. Since they visit the Inn every year, it was the perfect, sentimental setting for Dylan to ask the biggest question of their lives. It wasn't about a grand, flashy show—it was about a place that felt like them.
Creating a Moody Sanctuary
When the search began for a Las Vegas wedding venue, Dylan and Kiersten knew they wanted to step away from the typical casino-style ballroom. They were looking for an off-strip hidden gem that offered true intimacy and a space where their guests could actually feel at home.
The moment they walked into A Simple Affair, they knew they had found their spot. They traded the bright Vegas lights for a moody, romantic color palette of deep oranges and rich reds. To pull the "warm and simple" vibe together, they had one absolute must-have: hanging lights. The glow from the rafters transformed our industrial space into a cozy, candlelit sanctuary—the perfect shield against the January chill.
Small Moments, Big Memories
The night was a whirlwind of signature cocktails (which were a massive hit!) and non-stop laughter. But for the new Mr. and Mrs. Fuller, the best part of the night happened when the party slowed down.
In a world where weddings can sometimes feel like a performance for others, these two chose to end their night with a private last dance. With the room quiet and only the hanging lights glowing, they danced to "Older" by 5 Seconds of Summer. It was a beautiful, full-circle moment for two people who have quite literally grown up together.
The Vendor Magic
A huge part of why the day felt so effortless was the work of Amanda at Chasing Rayne Photography. She didn't just take photos; she made the entire experience stress-free, capturing the raw, "warm and moody" energy of the day while making the couple feel completely at ease.
Dylan and Kiersten, thank you for choosing A Simple Affair Las Vegas for your intimate winter wedding. Your story is a beautiful reminder that when you find your person early, every year that follows is just another chapter in a great adventure.
