Emma and Aaron, La Fonda on the Plaza

by | Dec 18, 2019 | | 0

Happy #WeddingWednesday and welcome back Blue Rose Beauties! What happens when you mix the most amazingly sweet couple with a classically iconic color palette? Pure, unadulterated – wedding magic, of course! You must know how much we love La Fonda on the Plaza weddings by now and this next celebration of Aaron and Emma totally reaffirms that love. When it comes to tying the knot, we are sure that nothing could tell their love story better than the natural beauty of Santa Fe, New Mexico. This area is home to some of the state’s most breathtaking wedding venues and might we add, the most talented wedding professionals ever! The iconic color palette of white, ivory, cream, and muted blush was incorporated into everything from the table design to the floral arrangements. The masterminds at Floriography Flowers brought this bride’s neutral color palette to life with just the right touches of texture and flair. Have you ever seen cotton incorporated into a bouquet? Yes we said cotton! This bountiful bouquet is unlike anything we’ve seen before and needless to say we are living for all of it. Looking back at this idyllic ceremony at the Cathedral, her iconic lace dress and all the details in-between has us feeling so nostalgic. We feel beyond honored to have lived this magical day first hand at a wedding where you could literally feel the elegance and love radiating through the rooftops. We were there to capture the beauty of the day as the couple exchanged vows surrounded by close friends and family, now we hope you will stay with us a while and watch it unfold, all over again.

Emma + Aaron if you are reading this, we are sending you so much and many wishes for a lifetime of happiness and joy!

Ana and Joseph, Event Center at Sandia Golf Club

by | Jul 24, 2019 | | 0

Ana and Joseph, quite possibly two of the kindest and most genuine people to ever exist, happened to find themselves in the right place at the right time and in the midst of a real life love story. The universe conspired for them to be together and everything fell into place leaving them no choice but to celebrate in perhaps the most beautiful fashion ever, surrounded by those they love most. If you’re on team classic, rustic, burgundy & rose gold you might want to go ahead and grab a nice warm cup of coffee or tea, get your pinterest finger ready, and settle in for a while because this next wedding will have your cozy heart and pinterest boards overflowing with love and inspiration.

The bride and groom exchanged vows under the big, beautiful, New Mexican sky with the Sandia Mountains and their nearest and dearest standing witness. Their beloved Bently the Shih Tzu and Bebe the Yorkie made sure to anchor them in love as the hustle and bustle of the day unfolded and they did it in impeccable style- they totally get our vote for best dressed of the day! Guests took their seats at tables adorned with monochromatic – delicate blooms and rustic details while the entire space was surrounded by romantic drapery and chic tones that made for a sweepingly beautiful look. Lauren Landavazo and the staff at The Event Center at Sandia Golf Club made sure this day was beyond breathtaking yet effortlessly intimate all wrapped up into one. See it unfold, we’ve captured it all in stunning detail for you below…

Megan and Kevin, Historic Farmhouse

by | Jul 10, 2019 | | 0

Megan and Kevin first met during their sophomore year of college in a science class and let’s just say the “chemistry” didn’t end there. Fast forward to April of 2019, these “university” sweethearts took a giant leap of faith into their forever and it was glorious to say the very least. Picture it- a beautiful spring day, surrounded by friends and family at one of the most elegant, historic spaces, in all of Albuquerque. The Dietz Farms is a private space and served as the perfect, tucked-away backdrop for a day that looks like it was plucked right out of a fairytale. No detail was overlooked and we wouldn’t expect anything less especially with Just Lovely Wedding + Event Planning behind the wheel, working her magic!

Scrolling these photos again today, I had a few moments of raw reflection (and some happy tears). On the outside, you’ll see gorgeous images of a lovely couple but the true beauty lies within with these two. My theory is that the contagious smiles and sheer happiness seen here is cultivated from a profound sense of contentment. It’s the feeling of being at home no matter where you are in the world because you finally have YOUR person- the feeling that comes when you find the one whom your soul truly loves at last. We feel so lucky to fall witness to such profound love especially the kind that Megan & Kevin share- we have been so delighted to re-live this momentous occasion and bask in it. We hope you’ll do the same and spend a little time with us and this gorgeous gallery.

PS. In case you needed one more reason to scroll, the world’s CUTEST pup makes many debuts below- it’s worth your time, we promise!

We LOVE the uniqueness of each and every family we have the pleasure of photographing. Each member has a unique personality, and we love the dynamics when everyone gets together to have a good time. The Holly Family provided the cutest subjects to photograph in The Bosque which always gives the most beautiful light.
