Toffee Hues Infuse Destination Wedding at Sanctuary Camelback Mountain

Something must have clicked when Taylor Richards interviewed for a job in Baltimore. As part of her interview process, Taylor spent a few days shadowing Joe DeBernardis, followed by a round of beers on her last day there. It marked the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Having attended many multiple-day celebrations themselves, the couple knew they wanted a destination wedding to maximize time and memories with their closest family members and friends. And Scottsdale was the spot to do just that. “We love Scottsdale because of the scenery, but also because there is something for everyone,” they recall. Sanctuary Camelback Mountain was the perfect setting for the “elegant rager with a touch of desert” they envisioned. Stand-out details included custom cocktails with their beloved dog Kody, and florals galore incorporating greenery, bleached ruscus and blooms in shades of toffee, blush and white. “I wanted the day to be aesthetically beautiful but overall an absolute blast,” Taylor says. “We wanted everyone to always have a drink in hand, with great music playing, having so much fun and feeling the love.”
