Weddings at Rita Deanin Abbey Art Museum

We Are The Exclusive Weddings Partner of this One-of-a-Kind Art Museum

Celebrate your multifaceted love amongst the work of multi-talented artist Rita Deanin Abbey. The “most important unknown artist in Southern Nevada” personally designed the spaces at the Las Vegas museum that now bears her name. The prolific artist would probably identify with eloping couples, as she liked to stay out of the public eye herself. Her southwestern themed abstract art is now on display and makes for a lovely setting for micro weddings and elopements.

  • 20 minutes from downtown Las Vegas

About Rita Deanin Abbey Art Museum

This 10,500 square foot museum showcases a little known Las Vegas super star and draws artistic couples to the northwest corner of the Las Vegas Valley.

It’s hard to ignore her compositions while posing for your wedding day photographs.

Known locally and internationally for her art, Rita Deanin Abbey exhibited pieces at and completed commissions for libraries, temples, galleries and universities.

Inspired by nature and the great outdoors, her work and her museum are relatable to couples sharing her affinity for desert landscapes, wide open spaces and infinite skyscapes.

Dedication to craft emerges from every piece of her art and creates an unmatched collection of pieces to explore on your wedding day.

The work of this inspiring artist spanned eight decades, and will live on for even longer thanks to the dedication of her husband, Robert Bealleveau, and the efforts of the Rita Deanin Abbey Foundation.

Personalize Your Collection with Extra Touches

"From start to finish, working with Cactus Collective was an absolute dream. Their communicative and efficient approach made the entire wedding planning process smooth and stress-free. We always felt fully informed and supported. Every question was answered, and every concern was addressed with care and attentiveness.

What truly stood out was their intimate and personalized service. Cactus Collective used the personal information we provided to make sure that our wedding reflected who we are as a couple. Their ability to infuse who we are into the details made the day feel special and intimate.

Their kindness was another highlight of our experience. Every member of the team was genuinely happy to help. They went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly, and their warmth and generosity made us feel truly valued throughout the entire process.

Cactus Collective provided not just exceptional planning and execution, but a heartfelt, personalized experience that made our wedding day unforgettable. We are beyond grateful for their kindness, efficiency, and dedication. If you’re seeking wedding planners who are communicative, efficient, intimate, and kind, look no further—Cactus Collective is simply wonderful."

"Having Cactus Collective plan our elopement to Eldorado Canyon is one of the best decisions we made. With only about 6 weeks to put everything together, I wasn't sure there'd be enough time to secure our venue and organize everything but CC had our permit for our desired location within 4 days.

Every step along the way went seamlessly with the help of Ginger, Penny, Mel and the rest of the team. The client portal made it so easy to communicate and do everything that needed to be done in preparation for our big day so all we had to do was show up.

If you're looking for a fun and stress free wedding experience, I highly recommend Cactus Collective to help plan your special day. Their comprehensive and detailed approach makes it so simple for you to relax and enjoy the process."
