Blush Palm Springs Desert Wedding

Blush Smoke Tree Ranch Palm Springs Wedding – Elle Lily Photography 11

What color blends nicely with the sandy yellows and cactus sage green of the desert? Blush. What is quite possibly our favorite desert wedding destination there is? Palm Springs. Yeah, I guess you could say this pretty pink Smoke Tree Ranch wedding has us a little head over heels.

Smoke Tree Ranch (one of my personal favorite venues in Palm Springs!) was once the retreat of none other than Walt Disney. The resort has long been a refuge for fabulous Los Angelenos and it’s no surprise a favorite pick of many SoCal brides and grooms. Think saguaro cacti, midcentury cabins, rustic yet polished space to party & of course an excellent pool to cool off from the desert sun.

Jessica and Lance made the space their own with a wildly fun day (seriously, look at all of those smiles!) One dressed, the couple had their tearjerking first look among the cacti then ran off to their beautiful church ceremony. The big bridal party frolicked through the desert rocks for dreamy sunset portraits then retreated to Smoke Tree for a wild party.

Let’s just say we’re a little jealous Elle Lily Photography got to capture this beautiful day.

Their wedding day included romantic, dreamy, and desert-inspired details—and of course—their adorable pup, Duke, who made his way into many of their wedding day portraits. Their desert wedding color palette was composed of neutrals, muted pinks and purples, making for a perfect early-sp
