Do you want to know what my wedding dreams are made of? Actually scrap that. Do you want to know where I'd love to live forever? This place. This STUNNING pink palace. The Sands Hotel & Spa in the Palm Springs area is the absolute perfect wedding venue AND vacation getaway for anyone that loves thoughtful decor, chill desert vibes, and insanely delicious drinks. To be honest, that description doesn't even scratch the surface of this magical desert gem; so you really just have to go. Like now. Pack your bags and head there asap. I'll meet you in the Pink Cabana.
When Jason Lloyd and I started dreaming up this wedding editorial, we had no idea how perfect it would actually become. I feel a lot of that is due to our amazing couple Alexandra & Madison, who actually eloped over a year ago in ripped jeans and t-shirts. They took this opportunity to celebrate their love by booking a few extra nights at the resort and bringing their sweet pup Madex along for the adventure. Jason Lloyd created an absolute dream wedding for them, along with the gorgeous florals by Lily ofSalt Road. Scroll down to see all the gorgeousness!
First things first, y'all.... LOOK AT THAT BOUQUET. No really... Look! Never in my life did I think I expect to see an ARTICHOKE in a bouquet... but, then again, I haven't worked with the sheer floral brilliance that is Tabitha of Winston & Main. It's definitely one of my favorite bouquet designs to date, and it fit so perfectly in with this intimate winery wedding inspiration at the beautiful Triunfo Creek Vineyards in Agoura Hills!
When Velvet Alley Events and I started dreaming up this shoot, we were sure on a couple of things:
1.) We had to have it at Triunfo Creek Vineyards
2.) Wedding details that rocked Pantone's color of the year, ultra violet, were a must.
Triunfo Creek's property is massive, but we chose to use their gorgeous fireplace inside their winery as a focal point for many of our ideas. The slightly unfinished look of the brick fireplace adored with colorful florals created a scenery that was intimate, yet bold.

What you're about to see an overload of gorgeous wedding inspiration! Eden Gardens in Moorpark is one of my favorite garden themed wedding venues, and I really wanted to create a whimsical wedding experience with some serious tea party vibes. For this inspiration shoot, I collaborated with a ton of awesome Los Angeles based wedding vendors to create some seriously dreamy photographs. Blush tones and olive vines ruled this photo shoot. We went for gold accents, gorgeous lacy details, and hard torn paper goods. Thanks to all the vendors that helped to make this styled shoot a dream come true!
