If you follow along on our Instagram page, you know I have a soft spot for warm destinations which most recently led to Palm Springs over Spring break. Nestled in the Coachella Valley, Palm Springs is a desert resort town like on other and I can’t wait to share a few favourite spots from our recent trip.
A short (and I must add) direct flight from Vancouver, B.C., you can start your day at the office and make it down to the desert in time for happy hour.
Whether you’re looking for a quick weekend getaway or a sunny destination for a wedding, the desert has lot’s to offer.
We’ve rounded up our favourite spots perfect for grand affairs or intimate soirées, and for more information on Palm Springs venues give us a ring, as we love to travel.
