Draper – Mattie & Victor

Cactus & Tropicals is always a magical venue, but this day was truly something special. With a sweet ceremony at Mount Olympus Presbyterian and a reception tucked into the lush, greenhouse-filled heart of Draper, this wedding felt like a love story unfolding inside a secret garden.

The ceremony was perfect with live music, and two people saying “I do” surrounded by the people who mean the most to them. Afterward, we moved to the greenhouse, where tropical plants and hanging greenery framed the reception in the most dreamy, organic way.

We accented the space with lavenders & greens, accompanied by the beautiful bud vases Cactus & Tropicals set the tables with. Once everyone was seated for dinner, the mariachi band started to play! My assistant described it as an “immediate and immaculate vibe” and I would have to agree.

This was one of those weddings that felt effortless in the best way ! Relaxed, real, and rooted in love. I’m so honored I got to be a part of it.
