An all-inclusive elopement in Joshua Tree, California

When I think about this all-inclusive elopement in Joshua Tree, one thing comes to mind: be bold.

Six weeks ago, Haley and Nathan came to us originally wanting to elope in our home state with only one must-have: the date had to be on March 23, their 10-year anniversary. With spring not quite ready to wake up here in Appalachia, we boldly pitched them the idea of going out west to Joshua Tree for their elopement where the weather and scenery in March would fair us all much better. I’m certain that we all did a happy dance when Joshua Tree was chosen as their all-inclusive elopement location and this one was extra special for Michelle and Tom, since they used to live in down the road from JT. Trading in our rain jackets for sunscreen was exactly what we all needed to see this elopement come to life.

After our permits were secured, our collective teamed up with a few elopement vendors out in the California desert for this destination elopement. Our first call was to the picnic company in Joshua Tree, Your Boho Bloom. We highly recommend working with them for your elopement reception in Joshua Tree. They had the most beautiful picnic set-up that included boho decor, a charcuterie board, and other design touches that elevated the experience for Haley and Nathan. Next, we teamed up with Pinyon Pine Floral Design for the bouquet and boutonnière. Working with Tara for the florals was smooth and the arrangements we delivered to H+N were truly stunning (highly recommend working with her as your florist in Joshua Tree!)
