A Colorful Celebration: Olivia & Ethan’s Arcosanti Wedding
Olivia and Ethan’s wedding at Arcosanti was a perfect blend of modern architecture, vibrant color, and heartfelt emotion. Nestled in the high desert of Arizona, Arcosanti offered a stunningly unique backdrop — raw concrete structures, sweeping desert views, and artistic touches everywhere you turned.
From the very beginning of the day, it was clear this celebration would be full of energy and personality. Olivia and her bridesmaids got ready in one of Arcosanti’s artistic spaces, sunlight streaming through the windows and bouncing off bold floral arrangements and colorful details. Ethan and his groomsmen had their own relaxed morning just steps away, surrounded by the same creative, architectural charm that makes Arcosanti so special.
Once everyone was ready, we explored the grounds for wedding party and family portraits. The mix of desert tones and vibrant attire created such a fun visual story — every corner of Arcosanti offered a new texture or shape to play with.
Their ceremony took place overlooking the canyon, where Olivia and Ethan exchanged vows surrounded by family, friends, and warm desert light. It was intimate and emotional — the kind of moment that reminds you why photographing weddings is so special.
After the ceremony, we wandered through Arcosanti for bride and groom portraits, capturing the contrast between the couple’s joyful energy and the serene, sculptural surroundings. The way the light hit the architecture was pure magic — golden, soft, and cinematic.
As the sun set, the celebration moved into the reception, filled with laughter, dancing, and incredible pops of color. From vibrant floral centerpieces to creative lighting that reflected off the concrete walls, every detail felt intentional and full of life — just like Olivia and Ethan themselves.
Their day at Arcosanti was a perfect reflection of their love: bold, creative, and full of joy.
