Mid Summer’s Night in Scottsdale

This destination wedding in Scottsdale, Arizona is what dreams are made of

Wonders never cease. In August of 2019, Nirjary Desai of KIS (cubed) Events had a client approach her and asked to have their multiple-day wedding celebration pulled off in less than four months. Not only did her team bring this December 2019 wedding to fruition, but the photos and the fun speak for themselves.
Just one year ago (when large groups were still able to safely gather), this stunning couple tied the knot at The Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona. “We wanted to highlight the natural beauty of the destination so we focused that into the ceremony,” says Nirjary, Chief Experience Officer and Founder of KIS (cubed) Events.
A bright floral design adorned the Mandap and cascaded down the aisle at the base of Camelback Mountain in Scottsdale. Guests were treated to a feast for the eyes both at the ceremony and again at the reception.
“The client loved a ‘Mid Summer’s Night Dream’ concept but wanted it to feel like a concert in a garden. That’s what they got in the ballroom. They didn’t stop dancing until 4AM,” says Nirjary.
Live musicians and performers wowed guests while the décor and elegance of the night swept them off their feet. Nirjary Desai is known for her “wow factor” and creating once-in-a-lifetime moments for her clients. “My life has always been a battle between my eastern culture versus my western lifestyle. Those experiences make me want to advocate for a more socially inclusive world,” says Nirjary.
