Our Favorite Wedding Vendors

We're not associated with these fine folks, we've just worked with them at weddings and know they do a great job!

Venues

Why we love it there: Best Hidden Gem! Southwestern charm, a small vineyard, and lush grounds come together for a beautiful location for small-medium size weddings. Your wedding photos will be very green and floral during warmer months!

Why we love it there: These elegant hotels both feature a classic southwestern flair with lots of room for weddings of all sizes. Eldorado offers an elegant and stunning white chapel and a rooftop area, while Andaluz features many small rooms in the lobby each with their own special decor which adds variety to your wedding photo possibilities. 

Why we love it there: Log River Ranch is the PERFECT rustic, yet elegant, event venue. Situated right on the river, their 2000 sq. ft. reception Barn features gorgeous string lighting, a beautiful chandelier, and endless photo opportunities. There is the option to also book their large log cabin, and the reception area is in a shaded forest area. Their staff will be very attentive to your needs on your wedding day as well.

Why we love it there: Casa Rodena offers an Old World feel with it's Tuscan architecture. There are many opportunities for beautiful photos in their Barrel Aging Room or near their pond. 

DJ Services

Why we recommend them: Daniel offers a complete DJ service which includes premium sound and an array of lighting options. His wireless microphones work consistently without static, which is something we see at weddings sometimes. The 'Uplighting' and 'Custom Monogram Light' are highly recommended add-ons that create for stunning reception photos!

Why we recommend them: If you need someone to really get the party started, Sider is your guy. Sider has an excellent ability to 'read the room' to know what to play next, and his setup uses a minimal footprint in your reception area.

Hair and Makeup

Why we recommend her: Kerbi brings 10 years of experience to the table, and we've seen firsthand how she can accentuate people's natural beauty! Her hair and makeup stays looking stunning from the getting-ready pictures until the sparkler send-off.

Cake

Why we recommend them: Their cakes have a very professional presentation, and they are delicious!

Music

Why we recommend him: Truly amazing harpist! I experienced his beautiful playing at a wedding at UNM Alumni chapel and it made everything feel nothing short of heavenly. He even threw in a well-time glissando that coincided with the first kiss, which made everything feel like it was straight out of a fairy tale.

Flowers

Why we recommend them: Gorgeous floral arrangements, creative designs, and very thoughtful, easy to work with staff
