El Churro Mountain View Ceremony
The celebrations kicked off with a ceremony on the Casa Paloma Event Lawn, where the couple exchanged vows with Camelback Mountain and the surrounding valley providing a breathtaking backdrop for the event. “When Aaron and I were first looking at locations, there weren’t any places that we both agreed on,” says Kathleen. “It wasn’t until we were driving home from looking at venues that we stopped at El Chorro. I had read about the venue online, but did not write it down as an option. I had no idea that they had so much extra land and venue options on their property. When we stopped by and looked around, we both knew instantly that we wanted to get married there.” For the ceremony, the pair kept the decor to the minimum, so as not to detract from the beautiful natural scenery. Pillars boasted bright purple lilacs and lavender stood at the entrance of the aisle and a few moss-covered planter boxes filled with lush white blooms were placed at the ends of intermittent rows.
