In April of 2023 I took over the wedding department (or lack there of) at Cactus Joe's Nursery just outside of Las Vegas. Cactus Joe's popped onto the map as a wedding venue almost 10 years ago, but didn't gain momentum until 2020 when couples were scrambling to find an outdoor space to host their wedding in the midst of a pandemic. When I stepped into this role there wasn't structure nor an actual team who handled incoming inquiries and bookings nor anyone with any grain of knowledge about the wedding industry to effectively work alongside with other planners and vendors in the industry.
So I took this still little known property and within my first 12 months turned it into one of the most sought after outdoor desert venues in the valley. What makes us so special? Well, let me show you:
Seriously, where do I sign up? The tall mountain peak in the center of the above image, taken by one of my favs, Onyx & Arrow Collective, is Red Rock Canyon and on a beautiful clear day you can see the variations of reds and oranges that make Red Rock so famous. This also faces west, so yes golden hour here is the bee's knees!
This blank slate of a space allows my couples to really create whatever their heart desires. You can be as simple as you want to be or go all out and have all the things to really dress things up. Either way, you are going to have an incredible experience and wedding photos that will make your friends super jealous.
