Love Under The Stars: Secret Garden Stunner

Written by Alyssa Keith | Dec 1, 2022 6:22:00 PM

With its pleasant weather, stunning desert landscapes, and vibrant foliage, fall in Arizona is a fantastic time of year. Secret Garden in Phoenix is a hidden gem tucked away at the foothills of South Mountain and is a true oasis in the desert. On a gorgeous autumn day, Lindsay and Naru chose this scenic backdrop to exchange their vows, surrounded by friends and family. Join us as we take a closer look at their remarkable day!

Lindsay and Naru decided to share a first look before the ceremony, allowing their talented photographer to take advantage of the many beautiful photo ops on the grounds.

When it was time for the ceremony, Lindsay made her entrance down the iconic grand staircase at Secret Garden. The couple upgraded to a gold circular arch and added in beautiful ivory floral with greenery from In Bloom. After the ceremony, they took a group photo with their loved ones, as is a long-standing tradition at Secret Garden

Taking advantage of the lovely fall weather, the couple opted for the “dining under the stars” reception at Secret Garden. Lindsay and Naru kept their tablescape clean and elegant with white floor-length linens, gold chiavaris, gold charger plates, and greenery from In Bloom to go around their lantern centerpieces.

A memorable element was the couple's custom favors – little jars filled with tea! This added a personal touch to the event and is also a hit among guests, allowing them to fondly reminisce about the couple with every sip of their tea. Adding another fun touch, Lindsay and Naru creatively incorporated their beloved fur babies into their wedding festivities by naming their signature drinks after their adorable pups!

After sharing their first dance and toasts outside under the stars, the celebration seamlessly transitioned inside the grand hall, where guests enjoyed open dancing and had a blast at the photobooth. As the night came to a close, laughter and joy filled the air, and guests headed home with hearts full of cherished memories from Lindsay and Naru's unforgettable wedding celebration.
