It’s no secret, the desert is our muse, and we loved designing this upscale, earthy wedding at the Paseo venue in Phoenix Arizona.

The Paseo is an exclusive, luxury venue surrounded by the picturesque Sonoran Desert. This romantic and completely private outdoor Arizona wedding venue is the perfect setting for an intimate celebration, and we couldn’t wait to plan and design a wedding in this space framed by the beautiful Superstition Mountains.

As luxury Arizona wedding designers, we were instantly inspired by the upscale, outdoor venue and we wanted to create a modern, earthy design that elevated the natural surroundings. At Mae&Co, we believe inspiration should always be the base for your designs, and we leaned in to the stunning golden hour warmth at this venue. Our colors palette incorporates beige, gold, and burnt sienna tones to accent the surrounding mountain terrain, along with blush and mauve highlights to add a sophisticated, modern feel. 

The ceremony and reception floral installations from Flora were a perfect addition to the couture linens and distinctive furnishings we sourced for this wedding. While the colors matched the Sonoran desert landscape, we loved playing with different textures to add depth an contrast to our design - and the ivory velvet and gold metal frame chairs from Prim Rentals added a perfect touch of glam to this understated Phoenix wedding venue. Think upscale desert vibes with an earthy twist!

After the bride and groom exchanged their vows with the Superstitions as their witness, the couple wandered through the pristine desert to enjoy a moment alone while savoring the natural Sonoran desert views. And as the sunset started to spill over this modern Arizona wedding venue, guests were invited into the Paseo venue pavilion space where a tablescape filled with golden detail to match the golden hour light. Plus, we loved adding in ornate golden flatware, clay colored candles and accents, and stunning snow colored and mauve linens - all working in tandem to create a cohesive design inspired by the Paseo venue’s surrounding landscape.

Styled Wedding Shoot

Industrial wedding venues have been trendy for a couple of a years, but we still believe that minimalist industrial spaces are the perfect imaginative, transportive canvas for a modern bride. If you’re inspired by editorial beauty and minimalist architecture, you’ll love this unique industrial wedding.

Designed at Easton Broad, a sleek industrial city space, we designed this wedding to be modern, cool, and organic. Taking full advantage of the expansive space, we created unique ceremony, reception, and champagne tower set ups. 

In the ceremony space, we designed a unique fabric installation. We created a loose, organic feel by layering and crossing the draping material to evoke a cool, editorial look. To amplify the sparse, modern feel, the floral design incorporated striking, white bare branches throughout, with luxurious orchid blooms. 

In the reception space, we created a design inspired by rich, luxurious textures. The simplified cream, ivory, and neutral color palette highlights the striking textures of the soft chiffon runner, the wooden vessels filled with lunaria, and the clear ribbed glassware. The concrete canvas of the industrial space was the perfect backdrop to keep the colors muted and understated, minimal and dramatic. 

And to add a unique, modern twist to the ceremony space we created a champagne fountain to create a sense of decadence — paired with French macaroons for dessert!

We love that this design shows that a minimal, industrial space is the perfect canvas for a luxurious modern bride. And if you’re looking for a simple yet striking industrial affair, we hope you find inspiration from this unique design!
