Say "I do" where legends played and Hollywood's golden era came alive. Bermuda Dunes by Wedgewood Weddings is one of the Coachella Valley's most storied addresses — a historic golf and country club community that has welcomed celebrities, champions, and tastemakers since 1959. Designed by William F. Bell with rolling dunes and palm-lined fairways inspired by coastal and British courses, the property carries a legacy that few venues can match. Arnold Palmer claimed his first PGA win here in 1960 and returned for his last in 1973. The Bob Hope Desert Classic called this course home for decades, and luminaries like Clark Gable and Cary Grant were regulars on the grounds. Today, Bermuda Dunes is being reimagined as a destination wedding venue without losing an ounce of that original character. The aesthetic is unmistakably mid-century modern — warm, sophisticated, and rooted in the desert luxury that defines Palm Springs style at its finest. Sweeping course views, lakeside ceremony settings, and sun-drenched outdoor terraces frame every celebration with natural drama. Nestled just outside Palm Springs, Bermuda Dunes draws couples from across Southern California and beyond who are looking for something more than a ballroom. This is a living landmark — a place where the fairways carry history, the architecture tells a story, and your wedding becomes part of a legacy that stretches back more than six decades.
