Ally + Abdullah

Tucked away in the heart of Palm Springs, Ally and Abdullah’s wedding weekend at Casa Cody was nothing short of magical—a celebration steeped in timeless elegance, effortless joy, and the warmth of their closest friends and family. As the oldest operating hotel in Palm Springs, Casa Cody’s historic charm and lush, sun-soaked gardens provided the perfect backdrop for a weekend of love, laughter, and unforgettable moments.

From the intimate welcome gathering the night before to sun-drenched afternoons spent lounging by the iconic pool, every moment felt like a scene from a classic Hollywood film. And when the wedding night arrived, the magic only deepened—Ally, radiant in a vintage designer gown, embodied the grace of an old Hollywood starlet, while Abdullah, dashing in a vintage tuxedo, looked every bit the leading man. Surrounded by a vibrant and stylish crowd dressed to impress, they danced late into the night, savoring every fleeting moment of their once-in-a-lifetime celebration.

Long after most guests had departed, the party continued in true cinematic fashion—a gathering of kindred spirits, laughter echoing beneath the desert sky, and a love story unfolding like a beautifully shot film. It was a weekend to remember, and I had the privilege of documenting it all, capturing the magic of Ally and Abdullah’s love in a place as timeless as their romance.
