Welcome back Blue Rose Beauties & happy #WeddingWednesday to you! During these unprecedented times we hope to bring a little inspiration and happiness to your world. It brings us so much joy to be able to look back on the celebrations that we have had the pleasure of being part of and bask in the gloriousness of families coming together to celebrate love. We can’t wait for the dust to settle so that you can get back to planning as usual but in the meantime we will be here to put a smile on your face!

It is not everyday that we get to photograph two different types of wedding ceremonies in one day so this next couple is very near and dear to our hearts. Lani & Kellen’s wedding day last May was one we will never forget! Our bride Lani is a Diné/Filipina from Na’Neelzhiin, NM so its no surprise that their day was steeped in rich tradition and meaningful details. From her unforgettable-traditional blush dress & turquoise squash blossom necklace to her modern white gown and floral crown, Lani was simply stunning on her big day. Both ceremonies and through the entire reception the dapper groom, Kellen, looked at his bride adoringly and our hearts couldn’t have been more full for them. A beautiful wedding vase ceremony and an adorable puppy dog making a cameo down the aisle along with how truly magical the atmosphere felt are just some of the details we will never forget about their wedding day. We know that Kellen & Lani are on the adventure of a lifetime- and we are so honored that they chose us as their photographers to document the beginning of it all. Ok enough talking let the photos that we captured paint the story for you in full. Don’t be shy… get your scroll on with us & feel the love! #NewMexicoTrue

Sylvia and RonLarry, Hacienda Dona Andrea De Santa Fe

Puppies, pops of jewel tones and vitality, and perfectly curated southwestern details – oh my! It’s our favorite day of the week Blue Rose babes (#WeddingWednesday of course), and this time around we’re so full of love, our hearts might actually explode. If you’re a fan of New Mexico’s rich, layered history, or sweeping proclamations of devotion, or furry friends in weddings – your heart might just burst as well. So, if you’re ready to get lost in a world of love, grab a cup of calming tea and join us while we revisit Sylvia and RonLarry’s celebration!

Held by the esteemed Hacienda Doña Andrea, Sylvia and RonLarry began the newest chapter of their life together surrounded by traditional architecture and ancient details. Complimented by vibrant reds in the gowns, floral arrangements, and decor, the day rounded out to be completely unforgettable. From tiny potted cacti, to the bridesmaids and flower girl’s gowns, each little corner was bursting with personality and life — perfect for a couple whose love is just as passionate and alive!

The combination of old world and new love carries on — Sylvia’s stunning and modern lace gown was donned with coordinated with cowboy boots. RonLarry’s sleek blue attire mirrored the traditionally exquisite New Mexican sky and popped against their outdoor backdrop with the addition of a deep red bowtie. Framed by a magnificently cloudless and sunny day, the couple said their I-do’s on Hacienda Doña Andrea’s grand patio in the company of their family, friends, loved ones, and favorite furry companion!

We love New Mexico, we love weddings, and we love love most of all. Sylvia and RonLarry’s celebration brought all of our very favorites things together, and was an unparalleled honor to bear witness to. Thank you for allowing the #BlueRose team capture each perfect detail!

And when it comes to weddings that are guaranteed to make you smile, this dapper duo most definitely takes first prize. Kathryn Carson planned this fête to absolute perfection. It was filled with moment after moment of pure, unadulterated HAPPY. Reliving their wedding through this gallery collection reminds us of many warm embraces from friends and family and a palpable feeing of admiration in the air. They had a major floral moment with a beautiful live photo wall and it was unlike anything we’ve ever seen! Imagine an entire wall dripping with orange anthurium, pure white orchids and an explosion of garden roses and peonies. Perfection! The florals didn’t stop there but appeared in every single area of the residence giving the entire space a beautiful aura and even better aroma.  The ceremony + wedding was planned at their private residence in Santa Fe, New Mexico so envision the most charming yet intimate affair and modern southwestern romance at its finest.

Caley and James, Loretto Chapel

by | Aug 28, 2019 | | 0

Do you ever look at a couple and think wow those two are going to have one interesting, lively, hilarious life together? That’s the exact sentiment that I had in my heart while choosing highlights to show you from their perfectly planned celebration. This gorgeous summer day in sweet ole Santa Fe New Mexico is everything classic wedding dreams are made of. The bride was an absolute vision donning an elegant lace wedding gown while her delicate bouquet, adorned with beautiful anemones and garden roses by Artichoke and Pomegranates, was the perfect floral accessory to match. James is in the running for our most dapper groom of the year and was channeling major James Bond vibes. For this Mr. and Mrs, spending their day walking into their forever in a modern, yet timeless chapel and venue with lots of natural lighting and endless photo opportunities was always written in the cards and that is exactly what they found at Loretto Chapel and La Fonda on the Plaza.

#WeddingWednesday is in full effect and has me smiling from ear to ear, capture after capture, because the connection that Caley and James share is not only electric but their playfulness is palpable and IMO that might be the most endearing quality when it comes to romance. Joanne Woodward said, “Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that’s a real treat.” We couldn’t agree more Joanne! There were lots of laughs but also lots of profound emotions floating around on this wedding day, just wait until you see the groom’s face when he catches that first glimpse of his bride coming down the aisle… oh my gosh our hearts! So many beautiful things to witness with these two and we hope you will grab some tissue, get cozy, get your scrolling finger and relive this beautiful day with us….

Kelly and Lisa, Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm

by | Aug 16, 2019 | | 0

Set amongst 25 acres of lavender fields, enormous cottonwood trees and lush formal gardens, the existence of Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm basically radiates with historical significance. Su Casa Magazine said, “one could spend a lifetime at Los Poblanos and never fall out of love.” and that embodies our sentiment exactly especially when it comes to the wedding of Lisa + Kelly. It’s never lost on us how incredibly lucky we are to able to experience and share love stories like that of these two. It’s a wonderful honor and when you have Floriography- Luxe Floristry and Amy Gallegos with For The Love Events behind the floral, design and coordination helm- it’s truly like hitting a wedding jackpot. These professionals have much of their own history weaved into Los Poblanos. They know the space, the history, the land and all of its quirks and highlights like the back of their hardworking- chicly manicured hands. They know which florals will perfectly accent the ambiance, they know the precise patterns to bring out the radiance of the historical heirlooms- and it shows. Hand lettered terra-cotta place cards, vintage depressed glass goblets, linen napkins and florals that will give you goosebumps- let’s just say these ladies styled this wedding to perfection.

If you love weddings layered with florals, a delicate palette, a feeling of warmth that pours from every image where the sun is shining, the smiles and love are overflowing and the details are unfussy and sophisticated then you might want to stay a while…

Fair warning, their love radiates, glows and shines through each capture. Their ceremony will make your heart swell and their smiles will light you up. The fete that Lisa and Kelly dreamed up, with this famously beautiful backdrop, will have you believing in the full majesty of love- we can promise you that!
