Funky Elopement Inspiration at the Windmills in Palm Springs

There are so many reasons to love Palm Springs. It’s a place where mid century modern design and fashion step to the forefront, and your creativity can run wild. It’s truly a destination for those looking for a next level wedding experience with a nostalgic yet funky feel. As weddings begin to resume, we are seeing more and more couples choosing to step away from tradition and go their own way. This retro modern elopement in Palm Springs is just an example of how you can have the Palm Springs wedding of your dreams without blowing your budget.

We really wanted to demonstrate how being intentional about your styling and vendors can go a long way especially when trying to capture the spirit of Palm Springs. Almost all of the items used in the shoot were either vintage, thrifted, or could be attained affordably. When you save on your outfits and accessories, you’ll find a lot more room in your budget to hire incredible vendors to bring your mid century dreams to life with their talent.

And speaking of talent, a HUGE shoutout to the amazing people who brought this vision to life.
