Elopement in Joshua Tree, California
An elopement in Joshua Tree Desert in California has been one of our dreams since we started being professional photographers, and the atmosphere we found there totally met our expectations.
The smell of the wind, the profound silence, the colors and the unique light of the desert have been the perfect background for an elopement.
The ceremony, intimate and emotional, with such a mystical atmosphere, has been held in the middle of the desert of Yucca Valley under a flowered arch and some blue candles all around, arranged by Venice Wild Flowers.
The villa, an amazing location named Serenity Escape in Joshua Tree, has been the best scenery of the reception, a modern and elegant house surrounded by the desert, a perfect mix of modern design.
After the ceremony, during the sunset, we took some pictures of Alectra, the bride and Adam, the groom, in the spectacular light of the desert, among the Yucca trees. The sky was a little cloudy and that made the atmosphere even more intense.Carol, our talented friend, owner of The Blushing Details, has been the planner and the designer of such an incredible wedding. The table setting was so romantic and elegant, the color palette of this desert destination affair was full of pinks, oranges, peach, and neutrals with pops of turquoise, we’ve been also featured by Inspired by This.
The stunning colors of the desert’s sunset made the atmosphere unforgettable, the perfect one for an intimate and touching wedding.
