Our wedding at the Dream House was absolutely perfect and so unique! Our guests still can’t stop talking about it! The venue is set right in the middle of the beautiful Palm Desert Mountains, blending seamlessly into the breathtaking landscape. We couldn't have dreamed of a better spot to get married. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel so special. They were not only super professional but always there when we needed them. Quick to respond to texts, they helped with everything along the way. We had our ceremony on one side of the house with a beautiful mountain backdrop and a violinist playing. For the cocktail hour, we moved to the pool area, which offered the best view anyone has ever seen. Our guests kept saying the same thing – they were blown away. The main party was held inside the house in a room nicknamed the game room, which has sliding doors all across that open up to the outside. The decor our planner designed gave the room a unique, modern desert disco feel. The night flowed very smoothly from one space to another, giving our guests freedom to explore all the house had to offer. What you can do with the house in terms of layout and decor is nicer than any wedding venue I’ve ever been to. The decor and flowers were stunning. Even now, our guests keep telling us it was the nicest wedding they've ever been to. The Dream House made our big day so special and unique, we couldn't recommend it more.

  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Morada is an open-air wedding venue located in Joshua Tree, California. With 350 acres of untouched Mojave Desert, the estate offers soon-to-be-weds a chance to retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. Any couple’s romantic event will be surrounded by picturesque mountain ranges and romantic sunsets during the evening, providing a stunning, photo-ready backdrop.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a glamorous vibe
  • Has a dance floor to dance the night away
  • Lush gardens

Venue considerations

  • Does not provide event staff
  • No free parking
  • Couple must handle cleanup and setup
The Morada was exactly what we were looking for in a venue. As soon as we pulled up we knew it was the right place. The accommodations were sparkling clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The kitchen in the main house is thoughtfully and thoroughly stocked, which made our stay even more homey. It's not cold and thoughtless like a lot of AirBnb's these days— it feels like someone's treasured home that's so well cared for and cozy. There was a lack of closet space which made it a little tricky given we had a lot of formal wear to hang, but we made it work. The casita is also well-equipped and thoughtfully designed. The owners allowed us to customize the space a bit to our liking, and the extra house allowed us some much-needed privacy during our wedding weekend. The outdoors are breathtaking and the big, open sky is stunning. The sunsets and stars are like no other— it feels like you have the desert to yourself. We enjoyed short hikes on the property, and there is plenty of outdoor seating to rest and relax in the shade. The bonfires at night were a great addition when it got a bit chilly and for some added romantic atmosphere. Our guests raved about how beautiful everything was— and while perfection wasn't our goal, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect celebration of our love. I'd be remiss to not mention Pablo and Devon specifically, who were incredibly helpful throughout the process, but especially in the weeks and days leading up to the event. Devon helped us navigate any logistical questions or challenges, including everything from a significant amount of package deliveries to requests for extra clothes hangers. We encountered an unprecedented rainstorm the day after our event, and Pablo helped us move our rentals under the porch to avoid any damage fees. Every time we looked up from our to-do list, Pablo and Devon were busy getting the grounds ready for us while simultaneously somehow staying out of the way of the main action. They were like our fairy godparents. I cannot thank them enough for their labor which contributed greatly to everything running smoothly. I highly recommend using a day-of planner or coordinator to help navigate the vendors— our amazing planner, Yu and Us, stepped in to do this and it helped us focus on other details while the groundwork of the party was laid out. We mostly used vendors recommended by the venue as it is a unique location that requires some extra logistics. We held 3 events— a welcome dinner & Paebaek (Korean tea ceremony), the wedding, and a brunch— all outside, and all special in their own ways. We also stayed an extra night, Wednesday through Monday, which I can't recommend enough so you can soak in the beauty of the space and the desert as long as possible. As a lesbian interracial couple, we never received even the slightest hint of judgement or negativity from anyone we interacted with. We're grateful to have experienced a space that felt safe for queer people, both for ourselves and our guests. There wasn't a moment where we didn't feel welcome and celebrated. Thank you to the Morada team for an unforgettable week!
