From “I Do” to Tattoos: An Icehouse Wedding with White Roses, a Tattoo Station, and a Wild Afterparty
Ashley and Nick’s wedding at The Icehouse in Phoenix, Arizona was the perfect balance of classic romance and pure fun. The couple wanted to keep things chic and minimalistic, so we went with using a white, monochromatic color palette for all the floral and decor. We decorated the tables with gorgeous Playa Blanca white roses and assorted white candles. The historic brick walls of the venue provided the perfect blend of modern industrial charm and timeless romance.
But this wasn’t just any wedding… it was a celebration with a twist. Instead of the usual wedding favors, there was a tattoo artist on-site, offering guests the chance to commemorate the night with mini tattoos. Whether it was a tiny cactus, initials, or something more adventurous, it was a wedding memento that would last forever (literally).
The afterparty was nothing short of exciting with craft cocktails, late-night snacks, and one of Phoenix’s favorite DJ’s keeping everyone moving. A whole day filled with a little elegance, a little edge, and a whole lot of love.

A Modern Spring Wedding at Scottsdale’s Camelback Inn with Soft Pastels, a Pop of Bright Pink, and Taupe Accents
Set against the desert backdrop of Scottsdale’s Camelback Inn, this spring wedding balances softness with structure. The palette leans into muted pastels layered with warm taupe tones, creating a look that feels elevated and romantic. Florals feature a mix of blush, pale lavender, creamy neutrals and a fun pop of bright pink. Garden roses, ranunculus, and seasonal blooms come together in loose, textural arrangements that feel organic without looking undone.
The ceremony structure was adorned with simple, asymmetrical designs and light mauve draping, letting the beautiful backdrop of Camelback Mountain speak for itself. Reception tables carry the same understated approach. Low floral centerpieces in soft hues pair with warm linens, neutral stone table numbers, and taupe candles. Every detail works together without competing, allowing the space to feel natural and not overdone. This wedding is a perfect example of how spring color can feel modern and timeless at the same time.
