Best Day of Our Lives!

We got married at Desert View almost 2 weeks ago and I don't think we will ever stop talking about how amazing the day was! The team was so helpful from the beginning with giving us advice, introducing us to vendors and coordinators, allowing our family visiting town to tour the venue, and overall, helping us to put together the perfect day! Zac and Faith were very responsive and helpful, which we greatly appreciated. Both the dressing suites were gorgeous and created such a fun atmosphere for our wedding party and family. But the biggest part of the venue was the view. We couldn't imagine how beautiful everything would be when we walked in on the day of and it exceeded our expectations! Our guests were able to take so many amazing photos at cocktail hour with the mountains in the background and people kept telling us how beautiful everything was. It had air conditioning throughout both buildings and they were able to turn it down even more when we started dancing. We loved every single moment of the day, we couldn't have asked for a better venue and better team to work with! Also, whenever I told my vendors that we were getting married at Desert View, every single one would say something about how much they loved going there. My photographer said the lighting was absolutely perfect, and my other vendors mentioned that the team is so easy to work with and they enjoy their time there. Overall, I would highly highly recommend Desert View if you are looking for a beautiful space, background and something that people will talking about for many years! Thank you Zac and Faith!!

1 million percent recommend!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Desert View Wedding and Events! I can’t recommend them enough—they were incredible throughout the entire planning process and truly amazing on our wedding day.

We currently live on the East Coast but are originally from Arizona, and we found this venue on Instagram. One of the biggest advantages was having so many vendors included in the package—food, cake, bartender, DJ, florals, planning, and linens. It made the planning process so much easier. They also offer flexibility if you prefer to bring in your own vendors, but honestly, their recommended vendors were so great that we didn’t feel the need to change anything.

For outside vendors, we booked photography, rentals, our officiant, and hair and makeup. Everyone worked seamlessly together, which made the whole experience even better.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful—you really don’t need to do much decorating at all. There’s also plenty of parking for guests. Everyone had an amazing time, and it was such a memorable experience for all who attended.

On the day of the wedding, every vendor associated with the venue was kind, helpful, and professional. Everything ran smoothly, which was such a relief since the day can feel so busy and overwhelming.

I truly can’t recommend this venue enough. They played such a big role in making our wedding day so special and beautiful.

Outstanding!!!!!!!

My son and daughter-in-law had their wedding at Desert View Weddings in March 2026. The way their two buildings and outdoor space are designed to make the most of the spectacular view of the Superstition Mountains and to accommodate any couple's dream wedding is quite remarkable! Desert View's staff was great to work with and their preferred vendors were top-notch! We could not be more pleased with this ideal venue for their special day!

Book before its Booked!

This venue is absolutely beautiful and that has nothing on the members of the team here. They were absolutely amazing.

Russell is personable and so easy to work with.

Chastity and Katia saved our wedding meal with their fast acting solutions and ordering.

This team and venue are amazing, I would highly suggest getting married here. We have had an insane amount of compliments about the views itself but also the cleanliness and space.

it was perfect! Book before your day is booked :)

Absolutely Perfect

We recently had our wedding at Desert View, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The venue's stunning natural backdrop provided the perfect setting for our special day. From the breathtaking views of the desert landscape to the impeccable service provided by the staff, every detail was meticulously taken care of. Each staff member we came in contact with was so friendly, responsive, and understanding. The venue was clean and in pristine condition. Our guests were in awe of the beauty surrounding us, and we couldn't have asked for a more magical experience. If you're looking for a truly unforgettable wedding venue, look no further than Desert View.

Blessed!!!

Do not hesitate to book Desert View as your wedding venue!!! My daughter and fiancé decided that this was THE place when it was still a dirt lot. I was more skeptical. However, through the ups and downs of construction and numerous visits to the property, I found one consistent thread- the caring and committed staff. Russell and his amazing team did everything in their power to ensure that our wedding was all that my daughter hoped it would be - AND it was!!! Additionally, I found Russell to be an honest and fair businessman that listens to his clients and anticipates solutions to possible concerns. There is a HEART in this business that was refreshing to work with!
