This Wedding Makes Cactus + Succulents Ridiculously Cool

If you fancy yourself a modern bride, then this Palm Desert wedding is totally for you. It plays on some of the hottest trends of the moment like cactus, succulents, greenery, and geodes, making this day anything but boring. See Sari and Daniel's "I do" through the lens of Nicole Clarey Photography and discover for yourself why we can't get enough.

From Nicole Clarey Photography... When you think of a destination wedding in Palm Desert you immediately think of sunshine and cactus. Although it was a rare rainy day in the desert, you can bet there were a ton of cactus and succulents incorporated into this gorgeous day! The chuppah that Sari and Daniel married under was definitely a showstopper and created a beautiful centerpiece for their “I do’s”. During the ceremony, as they were saying their vows, the sun broke from behind the clouds for the first time that day and a giant smile came across each of their faces. It was magical.

The reception was covered with cactus, succulents, orchids, and geodes and glowed with candlelight. Sari and Daniel are two laid-back people who love to have a good time and those vibes definitely carried over into their entire day. Along with their guests ate, they drank and danced the night away with the amazing West Coast band keeping the party going.

One of my favorite moments of Sari and Daniel’s wedding was during the ceremony. After announced husband and wife, without thinking, Daniel started to make his way down the aisle. However, he has left Sari at the alter. Being reminded by all the guests he forgot something, he turned back around to grab his bride. Although it was funny, it was also very cute. He was so excited to finally be married to his wife that he couldn’t wait to get the party going!
