The Butterfly Roof's Desert Wedding Ledger
A reported guide to 46 wedding venues between Palm Springs and Twentynine Palms, with prices, capacities, jurisdictions, and permit rules.
Field notes
The directory treats venue research as a combination of reporting and administrative archaeology: listings are read against city codes, county rules, federal-park context, weather, and event calendars. Its evidence includes a 26-contract annual limit for weddings at rented houses in Palm Springs, Indio thresholds that change with parcel size and attendance, and the scarcity of public rate cards. The homepage also flags properties whose status may change, including Palm Springs Riviera's stated closure for a seven-month renovation.
