Ace Hotel Wedding: Palm Springs, California

Ace Hotel Palm Springs Wedding Photos

One of my favorite places to relax and knock back a couple of cocktails has always been Ace Hotel in Palm Springs. I seriously love the vibe. Yes, drinks served poolside until 2am is one of those reasons. But this post isn’t about me, it’s about Ali, Chris, and their Ace Hotel wedding.

Ali and Chris met at Lake Mojave while essentially boating, camping, boozing, and all that fun stuff. After a whirlwind romance that included Chris cooking breakfast in the nude every Saturday, this awesome couple got engaged. The plan: get married at a church in Palm Desert, where Ali’s uncle had been a Pastor for nearly 30 years, then bus back to Ace Hotel for cocktails. The plan went off without a hitch. The wedding was authentic, full of good energy, and a blast for all 200+ guests. Below are some photos from this awesome venue, plus helpful info if you want to learn more about getting married here.

What People Actually Say About Getting Married Here

I’ve read through a stack of reviews from real couples who got married at Ace. A few things keep coming up over and over. The staff gets mentioned by name in almost every single one, which says a lot. Multiple couples booked their rehearsal dinner, the wedding, and a Sunday brunch all on property. Their whole crew never had to worry about transportation all weekend. A few couples called out how the Commune’s mid-century, desert-boho look matched their vision without much extra decor needed.

The Party Doesn’t Have To End At 10pm

Music at the Commune and Clubhouse wraps around 10pm, standard for outdoor Palm Springs venues. Multiple reviews mention just walking the whole party over to the Amigo Room, the hotel’s own bar, once the reception ends. Easy way to keep the night going without anyone driving anywhere.

A Few More Things Worth Knowing Before You Book

Yes, You Can Bring The Dog

Ace Hotel is pet friendly. More than one couple mentioned their dogs attended the wedding weekend with them, cookies included from the staff. On the practical side, the venue books events as small as 10 guests. Not exclusively a big-wedding space. Bar service starts around $64 per person and covers a bartender, house liquor and wine, and a champagne toast. A real starting number for your budget before you even call their team.

My name is Ryan. nice to meet you.

Are you ready to enjoy some sunshine while consuming wine until the midnight hour and beyond? Of course you are! The truth is planning a destination wedding in Temecula (or any wedding for that matter) can be a stressful. So make sure you treat yourself (and your fiancée) kindly throughout the process. Enjoy it! And if you ever feel overwhelmed just pour yourself an adult beverage and visualize yourself dancing with friends and celebrating all evening long on your wedding day! Don’t forget to think about the R&R of your honeymoon either. Your wedding WILL be awesome because you are awesome. So let me focus on the Temecula wedding photography while you focus on the good times.
