About This Package
Joshua Tree Wedding
Our stunning packages include the venue, photography, officiant, full-service planning, makeup, and more—all arranged by your Wedy planner, who can also book a private chef, connect you with a top local videographer, and add a florist for your tablescape.
As a frequent camper flocking to the desert for both stargazing & wild wedding fun, we know quite a lot about getting married in Joshua Tree 💫
Picture this: you say “I do” in a boho desert location, surrounded by succulents and Joshua Trees under guaranteed blue skies and sunshine. Then, a technicolor sunset falls over your couple portraits session and the party goes well into the night thanks to gorgeous weather & tantalizing libations of tequila & mezcal!
The evening goes on, culminating with some dances and the floor opens up to general dancing but before the photographer leaves, you’ll have your cake (and eat it too!)
With technicolor sunsets and stunning desert landscapes, Joshua Tree is full of hidden gems like The Morada, The Ruin Venue, Rimrock Ranch, Nowhere California, Indian Cove Amphitheater and more—making it an epic choice for a destination wedding in Joshua Tree!
Convinced? Lucky for you, we’ve put together this package which basically plans your entire Joshua Tree wedding — from your ceremony + reception venue to all the vendors you need to host a complete wedding!
