This Modern Southwest Wedding Inspiration Takes Our Breath Away

Terracotta, cobalt and coral work in unison to create this breathtaking modern Southwest wedding inspiration planned and designed by R&J Events! Thoughtfully styled with elegant and bohemian elements alike, this Southwestern-inspired tablescape includes terracotta clay chargers housing black marbled dinnerware, simplistic white candlestick holders holding bright blue accenting taper candles, blue glass goblets and gold flatware contrasting with a raw wood table and mod white linens. This bride models a stunning strapless trumpet gown from Modern Affinity featuring simplistic, clean lines and a chic belt detail that add a modern touch to the rustic setting that is this ceremony setup – dried florals around a cowhide altar atop a cement platform all juxtapose beautifully alongside one another. We can’t wait to cut into the jaw-dropping white, piped arch cake seen below! Keep scrolling to see this modern Southwest wedding inspiration play out for yourself. Cheers!
