Royal Palms Resort and Spa Wedding: Leo + Brittany

Navy and Greenery Filled Wedding

If you are the type of bride who loves simple yet intentional, this wedding inspiration is for you. The couple featured in this wedding have a story of their own that is sweet to the eye and heart. This wedding inspiration took place at the Royal Palms Resort and Spa which made the day feel like a summer oasis retreat with love in the air. They took a walk down memory lane as they recall one of the most important days of their life and celebrate their current journey of love right now. We emphasized a clean color palette of white and navy creating an understated elegance for a whimsical, dreamy, destination wedding inspiration.

To hear more about the couples own personal Wedding day enjoy these personal notes:

It was a warm sunny Arizona day in the Spring. Vision for the day was that their guests were just bursting at the seams with love. Their ceremony was held at the Algeria Garden, a small gated garden surrounded by the overgrown and well manicured jungle trees and Mediterranean architectures. Music was important to them. Their maid-of-honor and best man led worship in the ceremony, followed by the guests and them sharing in communion. During the ceremony, the father of the bride and mother of the groom were tearing up in the front row.

As they transitioned to their reception, the tables were full of candles and the greenery covered the tables. Guests had a free trolley ride heading to the resort and had their reception held on the lawn with open skies at the Royal Palms Resort and Spa. Views overlooking Camelback Mountain, with the sprawling landscape of jungle vegetation on the property around them. Candle light lit the air of intimacy, along with the twilight dancing. They absolutely adore when the bride’s father and her shared their “father-daughter” dance and have named it a “favorite moment.”  They celebrated with a choreography music mash-up and it showed off just how close their father-daughter relationship was. To end their night,  fireworks were shot up in the distance, making it a night to remember.

May you be inspired to add simplistic, creative, and Mediterranean details in your wedding for the day of your dreams and most importantly leave space to create memories that you will never forget. Just as this special couple did.

A well-liked marriage is one that can embrace the hard and the good together. One that doesn’t run away from the hard stuff, but shows up anyway.

Tender care from both husbands and wives communicate so much love in a marriage.

Laughter keeps our hearts light and playful with each other when we go through life. This is the perfect venue for your destination wedding in Arizona.

Marriage is about taking one step at a time, taking one walk at a time. We are only humans, and can only do so much. We often time have high expectations of ourselves, and it can leave us feeling heavy and disappointed. Let us remember to be gentle and receive grace for our fragile hearts. Leave room for forgiveness to flood our minds and hearts.
