Are you familiar with Anza-Borrego Desert State Park + all its stunning scenery? If not, you might want to plan a trip out there in the distant future… A relatively short day trip from San Diego, the place is known for its gorgeous wildflowers, and dreamy desertscapes.
It’s here, that designer Events Inspired + Jamie English Photography envisioned their modern bohemian couple. Utilizing the natural landscape of Fish Creek Wash, the team crafted a dramatic + free-spirited elopement, brimming with moody florals + fun macramé accents. Julia of Events Inspired shares: We wanted to embrace the powerful angles of the jetting rock formations and carry them throughout aspects of the design. The natural, neutral tones in the surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for the bold hues and textures to make a statement.
Let’s wander through the desert!
The Details
Four Things Paper crafted this watercolor invite, and we ADORE the bright red hue to offset the moody florals from Blue Ladder Botany.
Modern + marvelous, the bride rocked the ‘Elizabeth Obee’ gown from Pronovias.
Tying in the watercolor from the invitation, Four Things Paper wrote their vows out to be saved forever.
Moody meets neutral! We’re totally saving this bouquet for later… and we have a feeling it will look gorgeous when it dries!
The Ceremony Space
The combination of macramé + pampas grass is a FAVE of ours. Isn’t this backdrop set-up from Events Inspired + Blue Ladder Botany stunning?!
The Lounge + Cocktails
Custom cocktails in the desert, yes please! Snake Oil Cocktail Co. crafted these delicious delights.

Isn’t this the prettiest location?! Way to go to the creatives behind this editorial.
