Jessica & Brian’s Romantic Palm Springs Elopement

Eloping in Palm Springs is always a dream, and Jessica & Brian’s intimate celebration was no exception. With a backdrop of iconic desert landscapes, a vintage getaway car, and a day filled with love and laughter, their wedding was the perfect mix of romance and adventure. As a Palm Springs wedding photographer, I love capturing these effortlessly stylish and deeply personal elopements that truly reflect a couple’s love story.


Getting Ready at a Private Airbnb

Jessica & Brian started their day in a stunning mid-century modern Airbnb, surrounded by their closest friends and family. The morning was spent sipping champagne, putting together thoughtful decor, and soaking in every exciting moment leading up to their vows. Choosing an Airbnb for an intimate wedding not only creates a relaxed atmosphere but also provides a beautiful, personalized setting for getting ready photos.


A Dreamy Windmill Ceremony

One of the most breathtaking and iconic locations in Palm Springs is the windmills, and Jessica & Brian knew it was the perfect spot to exchange vows. Jessica made a grand entrance in a classic 1965 Mercury, adding a timeless touch to the day. 


Portraits at the Palm Springs Windmills

After their "I do's," while their guests made their way back to the Airbnb, we stayed at the windmills for some stunning, windswept portraits. The soft, golden hour light painted the desert in the most ethereal way, making for some truly breathtaking imagery. Palm Springs wedding photography thrives in these golden hues, and Jessica & Brian’s portraits perfectly captured the essence of romance and adventure.

They then hopped back into the Mercury, complete with a classic “Just Married” sign and clinking cans trailing behind, making their way back to celebrate with their loved ones.

A Cozy & Fun Celebration

The evening wrapped up with an intimate candlelit dinner at the Airbnb, surrounded by heartfelt toasts, delicious food, and the best company. What made this elopement so special was the way Jessica & Brian focused on what truly mattered—celebrating their love in a way that felt uniquely them.

Palm Springs is the perfect destination for couples looking to elope in style, offering endless backdrops, mid-century charm, and a romantic desert glow. Whether you're planning a large wedding or an intimate elopement, this city provides the most picturesque settings for your love story.
