Red Rock Desert Romance With A Whimsical Blue Wedding Dress

Red Rock Desert Romance With A Whimsical Blue Leanne Marshall Wedding Dress – Elizabeth M Photography 1

Who says you have to wear white to your wedding? (Not us!) As you may have noticed we’ve been gushing over quite a few colorful wedding gowns lately and this hand-dyed Leanne Marshall dress is the ultimate ‘something blue’!

I had the joy of twirling around Leanne Marshall’s studio in Manhattan in one of her raincloud blue wedding gowns a year or so ago and were it not for my mom not being in attendance to shop – it probably would have come home with me. (However, I did wear another blue dress of hers on our wedding week). Leanne’s gowns are meant to float & fly, making them the ultimate gowns for a windy desert fête, as seen here in the Red Rocks of Nevada.

Photographed by Elizabeth M Photography & made extra pretty with a dramatic Roots Flowers & Events bouquet, this desert elopement inspiration is ever-so-romantic. The watercolor blue gown absolutely pops against the coral cliffs. (Hot tip, opposites on the color wheel will give you the ultimate popping effect when choosing your colorful gown & backdrops). We’ll be dreaming of desert winds & blue dresses for a while now.

From Elizabeth M Photography

I love the outdoors, and as a creative, I feel fully able to express myself when I’m surrounded by the grandeur of nature. But I also love some glam and I believe when glamour is mixed with the outdoors, magic happens. I also believe there’s something truly special about the red beauty of just outside of Las Vegas – this natural, elegant and jaw dropping canyon is just 20 minutes from one of the busiest and artificial cities in the states. I wanted to showcase a location that is so accessible, yet so often overlooked.

The flowers are wild and overflowing, lush and show stopping. With colors of green, rouge, creme and blush, they showcase the perfect color palette for any season.

The gorgeous Leanne Marshall dress is light and flowy. The hand-died blues stand out against the red rocks, and catch every gust of wind that comes by – which creates for a beautiful look of movement and magic.
