Sassi Desert Wedding from Harrison Hurwitz Photography
This Arizona wedding is the epitome of the classic, dessert wedding. It’s absolutely timeless. It’s beyond beautiful. And it’s shot by one of our favorites, Harrison Hurwitz Photography. Against the cool colors of the hot Arizona dessert, everything and everyone looks perfect. We are completely in love. This is definitely the kind of wedding little girls dreams are made of. And in the name of wedding daydreaming, let your inner little girl meet up with my inner little girl in the gallery for more!
From Beatriz, the bride … Alvin only cared about the food, so I knew Sassi was going to be a great place due to their amazing kitchen. I also fell in love with the amazing views, desert scenery and the architecture. I particularly appreciated how it wasn’t too modern or trendy.
The same simple yet timeless elegance which attracted me to Sassi also led to my choices in decor, flowers, and dress. We tried to keep everything as simple as possible and avoided creating too much work for ourselves. We focused on spending time with our friends and family instead of worrying about minor details.
I am a native of Michoacán, Mexico, so we also wanted to tie in some Mexican traditions to the ceremony. We had a mariachi band and traditional Mexican wedding traditions such as a lazo ceremony and the exchange of arras. I wore a gold bracelet given to me by Alvin’s mother and a necklace and earrings given by my mother. The headpieces were custom designed in my hometown, La Piedad.
Harrison Hurwitz, our photographer, was alongside to capture every moment. So caught up in his work, he even got entangled with a cactus plant. His wife, working closeby, was rather concerned – but not so much as to miss capturing the moment on film.
As the night winded down, we sent everyone off with one of our paletas. It was a simple treat to end a simple wedding on a warm Arizona night.

Great photography!!! It couldn't be better!!
Love the photo with the veil floating in the breeze - just gorgeous!
Absolutely stunning! Hurwitz Photography was my photographer for my wedding and is one of the BEST in this state! We still show our photo album to friends and it's 6 years later.
What a spectacular wedding and fabulous photos captured at exactly the right moments!!!
Amaaaazing photography and images! This wedding looks absolutely GORGEOUS..and I know how much of that depends on a good photographer. You can skimp on a number of things but DON'T skimp on the photographer. The cake will be eaten, the deejay/band will spin songs no one will remember, but you will have those images forever. Hurwitz Photography is the best of the best.
Nice article and great photography! Harrison shot photos for us years ago and they are timeless, and priceless. We love his ability to see something in a simple gesture and capture it; turning it into a beautiful work of art. It's good to see his photography continues to be appreciated.
To the bride and groom: CONGRATS!!! I recently was a guest to my close friend's wedding (Which I was lucky enough to help plan details to) at SASSI! The food was AHHHH- MAY-ZING!!!! This venue is just breathtaking and has a MILLION places for awesome photos! The staff was VERY attentive and a well oiled machine. Several changes had to be made the day of due to the breezes that blew in from the Valley (Thank goodness or it would have been HOT) and the Sassi Staff was on top of it without worrying the Bride and Groom! I will be heading back to SASSI to celebrate my last birthday in Arizona before I head back east... their regular menu looks amazing and I MUST see this place again!!!
Amazing photos. Your photographer captured it with style!
The photos truly capture the spirit of the day as well as the atmosphere. Harrison has taken family photos for us, and we are quite fond of his work. Congrats to the bride and groom on sharing your memories!
Great photography. I love his work. I will use Harrison at my next wedding. D W
I will use Harrison at my next wedding too! Great work! E
Congratulations to the happy bride and groom! And congratulations in putting together an event that will not only be memorable to them but to each and every one of their guests. What a beautiful setting! The photographer, Harrison Hurwitz and his wife, absolutely captured the moment in time with each and every shot. My favorite shot is the bride outside in the breeze with her veil floating out behind her. Beautiful! Harrison has a way of anticipating each moment and being there at the right time. We will definately contact him to cover our next family event.
So graceful, so unique, so Harrison Hurwitz!
