Desert Foothills Events

Planning a destination wedding? Want a venue that doesn't look like the last one you looked at?

Our North Scottsdale venue is far from that boring ballroom space with bad carpet and high prices. Imagine a private, quiet, and pristine untouched desert, surrounding you with towering saguaros (that's cacti for all of you out-of-towners) as the backdrop to your Scottsdale wedding. Cactus shadows dance across the the Sonoran Desert floor as the sun sets into splashes of moving vibrant color across the Arizona sky. What could be more beautiful? Following your ceremony, guests will be ushered into our remarkable 10,000 square foot rustic 'barn' with twinkle lights, dance floor, and plenty of space for catering, toasting, dancing and entertainment! Your guests will be talking about the experience for years to come.

The Barn

The centerpiece for all occasions.

Our signature 'barn' is nestled in the private Sonoran Desert, far from power lines and street lights. By day, beautiful hawks frequent the area, and by night, the bright sky offers stunning stargazing opportunities. The lush desert landscape features giant saguaro cacti, some up to 1000 years old. Built over 30 years ago, the rustic barn boasts high ceilings with open beams and rafters. You might even spot our resident barn owl. The barn can seat up to 425 guests, and includes a 2,500 square foot sunset patio that accommodates 150 guests, offering the best views of the desert sunset. This space is perfect for dining, entertainment, and receptions. Picture enjoying fresh air under the vibrant Arizona sunset and then moving into the warm, spacious, and beautifully decorated barn for your event. Your guests will be in awe, experiencing a true taste of the Southwest.
