This cheerful, boho Palm Spring wedding is an instant mood booster! With pops of pretty fuchsia blooms from Layered Vintage and a tropical meets desert vibe – there’s so much to love about today’s inspiring fête at The Cree Estate captured by Ashley Rae Studio. Trust us, the full gallery is not to be missed.

Written by the bride… When Tyler and I started wedding planning the first thing we agreed upon was wanting an outdoor venue that felt like a unique destination to celebrate with our guests. We were in love with the Cree Estate in Palm Springs the moment we saw it. From the mature palm trees and giant succulents, to the perfect property layout for the flow of a wedding, we couldn’t love it more. We also loved that we were able to stay onsite with our close family and friends as the property sleeps 16. To enhance the beautiful grounds of the property, all colors, decor, and design elements were strategically chosen to bring our “modern boho” vision to life.

Our venue was a blank canvas and we had to bring everything onsite, which we loved as it allowed us to plan and execute our wedding exactly as we envisioned. To pop against the lush, green grounds, we chose magenta and hot pink with hints of blush and tangerine. All décor had a boho vibe, and we incorporated different textures and mixed gold, copper, brass, and rose gold metals to really bring in personality. We also created moody element by incorporating primarily black signage.

We wanted our wedding to be a day of celebration. From food, drinks, and desserts, to entertainment we wanted our guests to leave feeling like they truly had fun. Both our caterers were amazing, and our guests raved that it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. We also had an amazing band that kept the dance floor going the entire time. Our family and friends totally surprised us with a flash mob, which had me in tears. Tyler and I closed out the night by jumping in the pool with our wedding party, which was the perfect way to end our celebration.

Unique aspects of our wedding day:

• During the ceremony we incorporated Las Arras, a Spanish Catholic tradition of 13 unity coins that represent an enduring marriage, and the Jewish tradition of breaking of the glass, which symbolizes life’s moments of joy and sorrow.

• We hand-stuffed small linen pouches with dried rose petals for guests to throw during the recessional, which was a great way for our guests to celebrate our nuptials.

• Most of our guests flew for our wedding so being able to give them a party favor that was small and easy to travel with yet personal and special was important to us. We tied a palo santo stick and custom matches that read “Come on baby, light my fire” to each name card on the table.
