Fred and Rafael, Private Residence in Santa Fe, NM

Welcome back #bluerosebeauties, we’ve got a very special #weddingwednesday in store for you today! This next wedding is the type of celebration that makes us so eager to jump on the blog and share, and especially at this time of year when there’s so much to be thankful for. The details are abundant but we think you are going to notice the love in their eyes most of all. Love is love, and there is simply no denying that especially when it comes to Fred & Rafael. 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. Our words could never to do this wedding justice so keep scrolling, we’ve captured it in amazing detail. Fred + Rafael thank you from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to capture such a memorable day, we are so grateful. It was a wedding for the books and one we will never forget!

Kelly and Lisa, Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm

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!
