About Desert Love in Las Vegas

The appeal of this outdoor venue changes with the seasons. In summer it’s a stark reminder that the desert is a hot and intimidating outpost for rugged individuals who can brave the elements.

During winter and monsoon season occasional weather patterns fill the sky with swoopy and wispy clouds providing spectacular sunsets. Spring and fall offer idyllic days and comfortable temperatures perfect for long photo sessions.

With all the calm and beauty surrounding you and your partner on your special day, you won’t believe you’re just minutes away from the bright lights and loud beats of the Vegas Strip.

What people are saying

"The photos Cactus Collective showcases on the site is exactly what you get. I would trust McKenzi and Cactus Collective a million times over! Thank you, Thank you!"

“We knew we wanted to try finding a package-type deal in Las Vegas for our small wedding. We opted for a few add ons like music, a site visit, extra photography, videography, and champagne toast. The team was communicative throughout the whole process.”

“Cactus Collective helped me plan a destination wedding at the scenic Valley of Fire outside of Las Vegas. Everyone commented that the ceremony, officiant, food, decor and overall experience was amazing. Thank you Cactus Collective and your incredible team for a day I'll always remember!!!”

Take The Road Less Traveled on Your Wedding Day

Desert Love is an excellent venue option for couples in need of a little more space and flexibility. Arbors, decorations, seating and other add ons are allowed. This venue is close enough to Red Rock Canyon to provide the amazing views the area is known for, but secluded from the tourist crowds that flock to the park itself. Soak up the desert’s beauty while celebrating your love story.
