With Halloween coming up next weekend, what better way to get excited with some chic Dia de los Muertos inspired skulls? The Big Fake Wedding Phoenix was everything we could have hoped for and more. And the cactus-shaped macarons? Well, those were just a bonus. Check out some of our favorite moments from this inaugural event below!

Inspiration
Our “Paleta de Piña” inspiration board was modeled after the fresh flavors, bright colors, and fascinating traditions of the Mexican culture. Think big skirts, perfect for twirling. Hot days by the beach cooled down by fruity paletas (aka popsicles). Woven blankets, piñatas, embroidery, pottery, Dia de los Muertos… the list goes on and on. We encouraged our Phoenix vendors to be vibrant, brave, and fun in this sweet and spicy opportunity to cut loose and celebrate with color.
