Modern + Chic Poolside Wedding at the Alcazar Hotel
Andrea and Alex’s poolside wedding soiree is clean and classic and perfectly balanced with the rich colors of the desert surroundings. Complete with a charming ceremony in the Alcazar’s lush courtyard and a family-style dinner at estate tables set beneath bistro lights, Andrea and Alex’s nuptials are the definition of desert elegance. Did we mention the evening Cinco de Mayo fireworks display and late-night tacos which capped off the evening? It doesn’t get much better than that!
