A Detail and Design Forward Destination Wedding In The Desert

This vibrant destination wedding brought bold Chicago energy to the heart of the Scottsdale desert. The couple traveled from the Midwest to celebrate in true oasis fashion, leaning into a day filled with color, creativity, and intentional design. From poolside moments with their closest friends to a dynamic dinner set around a caterpillar-inspired layout, every element felt both elevated and uniquely personal.

The ceremony was one of a kind. Guests were seated on plush orange velvet couches arranged in a circular format, placing the couple in the center as they exchanged vows. The reception that followed was just as expressive, featuring suspended florals, tropical textures, and a palette of vibrant glassware and linens that reflected the warmth and energy of the desert.

I had the honor of documenting this celebration as part of the trusted team for Alexes Lauren Photography. It was a joy to help capture the bold vision and thoughtful details that made this day feel so artfully curated from beginning to end.
