Derek and I went to Ace Hotel & Swim Club in Palm Springs for the weekend to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary. Derek had been working like crazy for the last few weeks, so a relaxing weekend was exactly what he (we) needed, and it was so great to enjoy it together. We laid by the pool for most of the time, but we also treated ourselves to a suuuper relaxing couples massage…oh man was that ever amazing. We will definitely be back to Ace – it was very much our style. Everything’s decorated with a vintage, hand-picked flare, and nothing is without character. Mmm.mmm.mmm. Love it.
Also, we started a new tradition! Since not only did Derek propose to me with photobooth strips, but we also had a photobooth at our wedding, we are going to take a photos in a photobooth each year on our anniversary! Lucky for us, the Ace Hotel has an old black and white photobooth in their lobby. Meant to be.
I’m pretty sure I’m more in love with Derek now than I ever have been before. He’s the best I could ask for.
