Midwest Desert Wedding: Urban Chic Meets Arid Charm

Share

Stylish tattooed couple in wedding attire posing together

You’d never guess that this desert-inspired venue is in the heart of the chilly midwest! Industrial elements and warm colors create the perfect backdrop for this wedding inspiration. Dried florals, stoneware, and potted plants bring in that warm desert feel. To keep the effortlessly cool city vibe, they opted for a brown tweed suit for the groom and the bride slipped into a fun fringe mini for the reception. This shoot just goes to show that you shouldn’t let your location dictate your wedding design. If you want the desert, bring the desert to you. 

Creekwoodhill and Sage E Imagery designed this wedding inspiration to show couples that you don’t have to compromise on your vision, sometimes it is possible to have the best of both worlds. Eclectic Elegance Florals designed these desert-inspired florals that really set the scene and bring the inspiration to life at Each Other. These photos by Sage E Imagery beautifully capture the city and desert aspects of the design. To see more from this shoot, be sure to check out the full gallery.

AN URBAN DESERT

When you’re torn between a warm, desert feel but you’re city people at heart, deciding on what you want most out of your day can be hard. This couple decided to heck with choosing, we want the best of both worlds. So when they stumbled across Minneapolis’ new wedding venue, Each Other, they knew it was the right atmospheric vibes they were dreaming of. They used the venue’s lounge as their first look-getting ready spot and adventured into their bridal portraits in and outside the venue. From desert to urban with a quick step out the door.

AN ECLECTIC ARRANGEMENT

With peaches, contrasting browns, and white-cream blooms, the florist from Eclectic Elegance Florals wow’d her couple with dashes of minty palm greens, magnolia branches, budding fuchsia, and whimsical ribbon from Tono And Co. Maven Style Shop and Creekwoodhill made them swoon with a classic, cottage-chic tablescape, and paper by NY artist, PPAPER Studio. Slight pops of color came in with fluffy clouds of meringue cake by the ever-so-talented Quince Catering, with blushing wine to top off the evening. This special day was captured by photographer, Sage E Imagery.
