There’s something undeniably magical about a wedding set against the dramatic desert landscape of La Quinta Resort. Allie and Ryan’s day was a breathtaking blend of elegance and ease. An intimate celebration that felt warm, stylish, and deeply personal. With towering palms swaying above, the sun casting a golden glow over the lush green lawns, and their closest loved ones surrounding them, this wedding was nothing short of dreamy.

A Bride with a Vision
Allie has a natural beauty that radiates from within, and it was our absolute joy to enhance that glow with makeup that felt polished yet effortless. We kept her look soft and romantic, ensuring she felt like the best version of herself. Her hair cascaded in dreamy, undone curls, perfectly complementing her ethereal floral gown. A true showstopper with intricate embroidery that felt like it was made for this moment. Her bridesmaids and family members also received our touch of beauty magic, with each look customized to enhance their features while staying cohesive with the overall aesthetic.

A Ceremony in Bloom at La Quinta Resort
Their ceremony space was like a page out of a storybook. Flanked by palms and framed with lush florals in warm, autumnal tones, Allie and Ryan exchanged vows in front of an intimate gathering of family and friends at La Quinta Resort. The floral design felt organic, a natural extension of the desert surroundings—whimsical yet refined. As the couple shared their first kiss as husband and wife, the joy was palpable.

A Celebration to Remember
From golden hour portraits to a candlelit dinner under the stars, every moment of the evening was filled with warmth and beauty. Guests dined at an elegantly set table adorned with flickering candlelight and textured florals, creating an atmosphere of romance and intimacy. The night continued with laughter, heartfelt toasts, and an outfit change for Allie. Trading her embroidered gown for a sparkling gold dress that caught the light as she danced the night away with Ryan.
At Elwynn + Cass, we believe beauty is about so much more than makeup. It’s about confidence, feeling radiant, and embracing the moment fully. It was an honor to be part of Allie’s day, to witness the joy, the love, and the undeniable magic that made this wedding truly unforgettable.
Congratulations, Allie & Ryan—your love story is as timeless as the desert sky.
