Arizona wedding

From ‘I Do’ to Tattoos: This Wedding at the icehouse Had It All, White Roses, a Tattoo Station & 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 contrast — a 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 — 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.

Julie and Donny’s Pink and Modern SPRING Arizona Wedding

Go Pink, Or Go Home!

Couples who want something outside-the-box are some of our favorite people to work with. When Julie expressed her wedding vision as something modern, pink and whimsical that would really wow her and Donny’s guests, well, I was filled with excitement to come up with some cool ideas for them. She didn’t have an exact way to describe what she wanted, which was totally cool with me! Welcoming creative challenges is very much a part of this job, and I respect those who want to take a risk to create a wedding unlike anyone else.

These two live in Canada, but flew out with their friends and family for a special and epic day in Arizona. Thank you, Julie and Donny, for your adventurous spirits! Xo.

Painted baby’s breath, Cappuccino ranunculus (with a pop of red ranunculus), and pink pampas grass made the ceremony space really stand out. The two wanted to embrace the Southwestern elements, so to stay in line with the “modern-pink” theme we painted a few desert plants and succulents and made some cool terrarium centerpieces. The pink sand and druzy quartz tied the whole centerpiece look together. For the transition into night, we found some pink twinkle lights that we weaved throughout the centerpieces.

Jeanine + Ankur’s Warm and Colorful Memorial Union Reception

The Memorial Union is a special place because it’s where so many couples meet for the first time, whether in passing or attending school together, so I can see why many go back to get married there. It’s a very special place to me personally because it’s where my mom and dad went to school together, and I spent a lot of time there with my family, feeding popcorn to the ducks by the lake and eating lots of ice cream. So it’s surreal to be there working on weddings for 1209 and watching our clients reminisce about past memories too while creating new memories together.

Being a part of Jeanine and Ankur’s wedding last summer really opened up some amazing doors for this upcoming summer. I get so wrapped up in each wedding we are currently working on, that I often forget that that vary wedding could somehow connect us to future weddings and new friendships. I was so ecstatic that I finally got to work with Kate Senger Photography on this wedding after meeting almost a year prior. She is a talented photographer that truly vibes with and captures the most precious details for her couples. It is because of her that we were able to meet Jeanine and Ankur and be a part of their wedding day. And because of this, we got to meet Julianne from Glitter & Twine Events. We quickly became friends and are going to be working on another wedding together this June. I love the universe and how one connection leads to the next!
