Burlap & Peach Modern Desert Wedding

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say we need more peach in the world. More peach and more burlap. Luckily, Karen and John, the happy couple in this real wedding understand the worth if giving good peach and burlap, and celebrated their big day in serious style. I'm loving their cute-as-a-button ring pillow, Karen's gorgeous laid-back style {simple veil, hair down, let the dress do the talking}, the family-style dining tables, and the glamorous golden table numbers. Throw in the wedding favour succulents and bluey mason jar vases, and I'm a very happy wedding blogger. Incredible photographs published with thanks to Sarah Yates.

Real Desert Wedding: Julie & Patrick

Yum yum yum! This is a mega-wedding for you, fresh from the desert! As a UK wedding blogger, I love looking at weddings from far across the pond. While we have to worry about rain and wind on our wedding days, US brides are often preoccupied with whether it's going to be too hot. Julia and Patrick hosted their wedding in Joshua Tree at the Sacred Sands Bed and Breakfast, in a stunning desert landscape. Many of the designs and wedding theme were created by the couple, with tonnes of wedding ideas to steal. There were also many eco friendly aspects to their wedding – all the succulents on the tables and even the succulent bouquets were re-plantable, all the food was organic vegetarian cuisine from the couple’s own favorite recipes, and even the Sacred Sands is an environmentally-friendly building (built using straw bale walls as insulation). As wedding favors, everyone received a poster with the couple’s wedding logo and theme from Clone Press {love it!}, and Julie’s gorgeous dress was by Jim Hjelm. The reception was held outside under a canopy of stars, and they had bunt cakes and biscottis for dessert. All in all, a perfect evening! Huge thanks to Stephanie and Isaac at Stephanie Williams Photography for their gorgeous pictures, and description of this fab wedding.

Real Quirky Desert Wedding: Jessica & Gray

The couple in this fantastic real wedding have some serious style. I've completely fallen in love with their understated minimalist big day, with its Mexican details and bright colours. My favourite wedding ideas to steal include Jessica's sexy ribbon garter, the Wild West-style font on their wedding programs, and the bridemaid's dazzling red hair accessories. Plus every wedding should have a traditional Mariachi band! Stunning pictures published with thanks to Punam Bean.

Real Destination Wedding: Umida & Mohamed

Destination weddings are all about the location, and when you're looking a location as gorgeous as Tunis, you can guarantee a spectacular big day. Umida and Mohammed chose the Residence, one of Tunisia’s finest hotels, as their wedding venue, and headed off to the ancient ruins of Carthage just as the sun was setting for the wedding photographs. It was perfect timing, and made for some incredible pictures. I'm loving the feather details on Umida's dress and shoes, and the pretty little studs in her hair - simple but stunning. Aren't destination weddings the best?! Fantastic pictures published with thanks to Anna Rosell.
