Today’s fun styled shoot was inspired by the stunning desert oasis scenes from Morocco. A swoon worthy notion, don’t you think?! The serene environment created by Carly Rae Weddings + Primary Petals provided a break from the commonly bright array of colors seen in Morocco and took on a lovely, non-traditional palette of navy, amber, cream, light blues and mixed metallics. Such a pretty color story for a late summer celebration! And if you’re wondering about this unreal location that is so reminiscent of the Sahara desert, it’s the Glamis Sand Dunes in El Centro, California. Pretty amazing, right? We’re so glad that Meghan Kay Sadler was able to beautifully capture this unique editorial so we could share it with you all today!
Isn’t this such a romantic bridal look? The beautiful detailed Lazaro gown was provided by Mon Amie.
Such fun inspiration for a laid-back seating area at your wedding or a pretty styled backdrop for your engagement photos! Get the look with a gorge boho tent from Raj Tents.
