A desert elopement can be as timeless as you want, as this stunning shoot can attest! Tiffany Sangster Photography captured this utterly romantic wedding inspiration at a workshop hosted by Sophie Kaye Photography and Julian N Photography in Red Rocks Canyon in the Mojave Desert. Layers of Lovely created a lush ceremony site and garden-inspired floral design in the midst of the rocky desert with a classic wedding dress by Carol Hannah to create memorable bridal style!

A Desert Elopement for the Romantic at Heart

Sometimes event design makes an impact by blending in with the natural landscape, and in this case, Layers of Lovely went for the perfect juxtaposition by creating a blooming garden as a desert oasis. The circular ceremony backdrop incorporated wild greenery and an abundance of spring blooms to create something unexpected and yet perfectly at home in the rocky canyon. The bride’s Carol Hannah wedding dress added stunning simplicity with a full-skirted silhouette that fluttered in the desert breeze. The gorgeously constructed satin bodice added a minimalist touch to play off the oversized bouquet of roses, snapdragons, lisianthus, and greenery with fluttering silk ribbons. Dane Udas worked with the timeless elegance of the gown to create a romantic side swept updo that showed off the bride’s dainty crystal earrings and fresh makeup. A stunning vintage engagement ring from Victor Barbone finished off the look in style!
