Getting Wedding Inspiration

Often ideas found on social media can spark inspiration. Ideally, making your elopement reflect who you both are is the whole point!

Finding Vendors to Help Create Your Own Wedding deliciousness

Trying to find vendors to help with location venues, and setting up rentals for seating and decor can be exhausting! Especially while trying to work or live life in general. But it is possible if you have the time, money, and know-how.

However, an even better way simplify your wedding is by using a planning company! Cactus and Lace Weddings came into being by wanting to help do just that.

We love our couples!

Let us show you a beautiful couple who came to us for help with their elopement. Meet Akilah and Adam, one of our most recent couples! A true love story, they met years before in college, each married someone else, then both were recently divorced and found each other again after years! It became a delightful job for us finding top-notch vendors to suit their preferences. As well, we created elegant and simply beautiful decor to enhance their special day.

Choosing an officiant who focused on meaningful touching ceremonies was very important. Next, choosing small pieces of trendy decor, that reflect their own personal style. An outdoor venue with gorgeous scenery at the Valley of Fire, helping to retain a tender intimacy with their friends and family was a lovely unique addition. And the moon was out the whole time, making marvelous images!

Our other favorite decor essential is flowers! Look at the stunning work by one of our favorite floral vendors. Arch pieces, a gorgeous bridal bouquet, and other touches make a wedding into something really special. Fresh, fragrant, stunning arrangements really upscale a standard wedding into something totally luxurious! We highly recommend!

Weddings are second nature to us, it is exhilarating, and we know all the tricks and tips to keep things affordable yet so beautiful! We are always amazed at how unique and different the combination of our clients’ wishes and our know-how creates a one-of-a-kind wedding, large or small. No cookie cutters here!
