Nestled in Coachella’s scenic embrace, Julia and Dwight crafted a dreamy oasis wedding at a private estate, marked by personalized details and heartfelt moments. From custom newspaper programs sharing their unique love story to Julia holding her mother and grandmother’s grandmother’s cherished wedding dress, the couple seamlessly blended tradition and creativity. This intimate celebration, with its warm desert sunset as a backdrop, encapsulated the essence of love, family, and the enduring beauty of shared history.

For couples seeking a wedding that blends vibrant energy with modern luxury, a private property in Coachella, California, offers an unforgettable setting. This celebration was held at a sleek, all-white luxury home with an expansive backyard overlooking a serene lake. The property’s design—a seamless mix of contemporary architecture and natural beauty—created a stunning canvas for a wedding full of personality, elegance, and fun.


The Venue: Modern Elegance Meets Desert Serenity

This private Coachella property combined sophistication with the laid-back charm of Southern California. Its clean white facade, spacious pool area, and sprawling backyard offered a luxurious yet inviting atmosphere for the event.

The lake, framed by palm trees and desert greenery, provided a tranquil and picturesque backdrop for the ceremony, while the expansive backyard served as an ideal space for dinner and dancing under the stars. The property’s pool added an extra layer of fun, creating opportunities for unique photo moments and a lively after-party vibe.


A Bold and Vibrant Wedding Design

The wedding design embraced the energy of Coachella with bold, playful elements that felt fresh and modern while still maintaining an air of sophistication.

  • Color Palette: The decor featured pops of vibrant colors like coral, fuchsia, and golden yellow, accented with neutral tones to balance the look. These hues complemented the desert landscape while adding an element of celebration and joy.
  • Floral Arrangements: Lush tropical blooms and desert succulents adorned every corner, from the ceremony arch to the reception tables. Brightly colored centerpieces lined the tables, while cascading florals brought drama to the altar.
  • Modern Touches: Acrylic signage, minimalist table settings, and geometric accents added a contemporary flair to the decor, seamlessly tying into the venue’s aesthetic.

The couple exchanged vows under a custom-built arch decorated with vibrant florals and greenery. Guests sat on chic white chairs arranged in a semi-circle, ensuring an intimate and inclusive feel.

As the sun set over the lake, the golden hour light created a dreamy atmosphere, making for unforgettable moments and breathtaking portraits.


A Poolside Reception Under the Stars

The reception took place in the backyard, where bistro lights twinkled overhead, and the pool reflected the vibrant hues of the decor. Guests dined at long tables adorned with colorful florals, modern tableware, and candles that added warmth and romance to the evening.
