It Was Pastels and Painted Palms for this Funky Outdoor Wedding

Planning

Funky Pastel Desert Wedding

Think desert pastels, boho florals, a totally unique wedding dress, jello shots and tons of cheese! Those are just some of the incredible details of Sarah + Joe’s outdoor wedding at Villa Royale. With the help of event planners Details, Darling, S + J treated their guests to a full weekend of festivities which started with tacos and ice cream on the hotel’s rooftop and ended with an impromptu pool party after the wedding reception.

S shares more about how they started the celebrations off right:

Our wedding weekend still feels like a dream. Friday night we opted to have a welcome party rather than a rehearsal dinner since we had so many guests from out of town. If you’re hosting a whole weekend of activities, we can’t recommend doing this enough!! Getting to socialize and make the rounds on Friday made Saturday a true love fest and allowed us to spend time together, enjoying everything we had been planning for.

Can’t wait to look through the lens of The Zamudios? Let’s go!!

Take a Shot!

Shots before the ceremony? So fun!!

I am obsessed with making Jello Shots, so we greeted guests at the ceremony with their view own jello shots to start the party displayed on the cutest custom cart by Details, Darling. Also, Joe + I both love music and happened to meet at a bar in Chicago, so Aubrey tied our personal story into the cutest, pastel seating chart displayed with spray painted pink vinyls and a velvet record player exploding with flowers.

Our search for an outdoor venue worked out better than we could have imagined, with the event space at Villa Royale giving us the ability to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all on the same lawn.

Say Cheese!

If there’s one thing we love, it’s definitely cheese!!

I used to work at a cheese store and it was always my dream to have a big, over the top grazing table at my wedding, and my best friends (who I met working at the cheese store) made that happen. Taking a bite out of a wedge of Humboldt Fog in my wedding dress was literally a dream come true.
