Just outside of beautiful Phoenix, Arizona surrounded by a breathtaking mountain view is the stunning El Chorro wedding venue. Full of beautiful spanish-inspired architecture, this wedding venue is so dreamy. Charming patios and vibrant gardens welcome guests, while lush florals and a scenic view of the Camelback and Mummy Mountains offer views like none other. This atmosphere of luxury offered the perfect backdrop for a timeless, modern luxe inspired wedding in November.
Bright, classic white florals surrounded by greenery donned the tables, surrounded by gold rimmed glasses and a swath of candles decorated the tables. Incredible place cards for guests were displayed perfectly, adorned by more perfectly placed white petals.
The stunning couple were the essence of romance. A classic, bright blue car from Roscoe and Louie made the perfect post-ceremony vehicle. The bride and groom celebrated the walk down the aisle as white rose petals were tossed their way. They then snuggled in for more post-nuptials images.
Getting to take part in this perfectly luxurious and romantic inspired El Chorro wedding was an absolute dream.
