3. Incorporate Unique and Personal Touches
"Weddings at The Boulders Resort are timeless and romantic—whether it’s desert elegance, adventure, or tranquility, the surrounding natural beauty will ensure the wedding photos are extraordinary. But in addition to offering unique outdoor venues, we can add creative options such as a horse-drawn carriage arrival to the ceremony. We also can personalize Everlasting Memories with details that are meaningful to you both, and your guests, such as adventure (Golf, Pickleball, Rock Climbing, Tennis, Hiking), culinary (Customized Cocktails), and Tranquility (Spa Bliss and even Spa Suites followed by a VIP wedding night in a suite or villa)." ~ Erin Donovan, Boulders Resort & Spa Scottsdale

4. Provide a Luxury Beauty Station
"As a luxury wedding makeup and hair team, enhancing the guest experience goes beyond just working with the bride and bridal party. Offering a beauty station for touch-ups during the reception can make guests feel pampered and special. This service allows attendees to freshen up their look, ensuring they feel confident and photo-ready throughout the event. Additionally, providing personalized beauty tips and mini-makeovers can be a delightful and memorable experience for guests. By elevating their experience, we help create a seamless and luxurious atmosphere, contributing to the overall success and elegance of the wedding day." ~ Nataliya Kovchan, Le Beige Beauty

5. Customize Your Dance Floor
"We know that weddings and milestone events are more than just gatherings; they’re once-in-a-lifetime experiences where every detail should honor the couple’s unique character. Whether it's the base for a first dance, heartfelt speeches, or you’re just looking for that final touch to stun your clients and guests, a custom-designed dance floor wrap transforms an ordinary space into something extraordinary. Set the stage for magnificence with our custom dance floor wraps and event graphics!" ~ Rob Hayes, SHOUT!
