Lovely and Classic New Mexico Elopement

August 17, 2024 BY: Amy

“Sweeping New Mexico landscape and family took the forefront in Brooke and Stephen’s intimate wedding just outside of Santa Fe. In lieu of a traditional wedding, the couple chose a quiet ceremony at the ruins at Pecos National Historical Park. The rich terracotta colored ruins provided the perfect backdrop for Brooke’s modern style which incorporated a classic silhouette dress, white flowers and handmade turquoise jewelry. After the ceremony, the couple and handful of close guests went back to Santa Fe to enjoy a privately catered al fresco meal. From the bride, ‘we love Santa Fe in the fall and wanted to encompass the beauty of New Mexico in our ceremony. Our favorite part of the evening was dinner. We enjoyed a fireside patio dinner with our families. We loved the intimate setting and that everyone could fit around one table. We incorporated warm fall colors in the tablescape. We hired a chef to serve a southwestern themed dinner.'”
