Whether you envision a rooftop ceremony at sunset or a garden-style celebration among palm trees, this venue has a backdrop to match your vision.
The Sky Line Rooftop, perched atop the hotel’s seven-story tower, offers panoramic views of Camelback Mountain and downtown Scottsdale—a magical choice for sunset “I dos.” For garden-style charm, the Palm Court Lawn is a lush and vibrant setting framed by the hotel’s signature mid-century architecture and towering palms, creating the perfect vibe for couples seeking a Scottsdale wedding venue with vintage charm.
Indoor options include the Sands Event Venue, a standalone space with a retro flair, and the SoHo Ballroom, which features retractable floor-to-ceiling glass for seamless indoor-outdoor flow. As a bonus, the hotel provides a weather backup for all outdoor events, giving couples peace of mind no matter the forecast.
