Nestled in the breathtaking mountain landscapes within 60 minutes of Santa Fe, Blame Her Ranch provided the perfect backdrop for S+D's unforgettable wedding day. From the warm, rustic charm of the venue to the intimate and vibrant celebration with family and friends, their wedding day was nothing short of magical.
Their wedding day began with a calm yet joyful energy at the stunning Blame Her Ranch in Santa Fe. Renting out the entire venue created a sense of intimacy and comfort for their family and friends, allowing everyone to settle in and truly enjoy themselves and the entire day. Surrounded by the most special people, they shared stories, laughter, cigars, a few toasts ;), and really got to soak in all of their beautiful details.
S+D's stunning ceremony took place at the outdoor space at Blame Her Ranch, and even for November, we lucked out and the temperature was mild. The couple exchanged vows beneath a simple, yet elegant arch, with the vast, rolling hills and wide-open skies providing the perfect outdoor wedding venue setting. One of the highlights of their ceremony was a ring-warming tradition, where their guests passed the rings around to offer blessings and well wishes for the couple's future. The emotional exchange of vows had everyone in tears, but their silly pups helped to offer some comedic relief by trying to steal the show. A dramatic dip during their exit was the perfect grand finale to celebrate these adorable lovebirds.
Following their touching wedding ceremony, we captured beautiful family formals and intimate couples portraits around the property at Blame Her Ranch. The iconic New Mexico moody, cloudy skies surprised us with a breathtaking rainbow, appearing at the perfect moment for an unforgettable memory.
As you can see in some of the photos above, the dramatic rock vistas, meticulously designed outdoor spaces, and diverse, stunning backdrops make Blame Her Ranch the ultimate wedding venue in New Mexico. Whether you're seeking awe-inspiring natural landscapes or beautifully crafted event spaces, this venue truly offers it all (and top-notch service!), making it a top choice for couples looking to create unforgettable wedding memories.
As the sun set, the celebration moved into the warm and cozy barn at Blame Her Ranch. Inside, a beautifully styled long table was the centerpiece, adorned with elegant decor and surrounded by twinkling, hanging lights, creating a magical atmosphere. The couple created their own flower Photo Booth wall, made out of dyed coffee filters to match their wedding colors. Their wedding favors were hand-selected and thrifted champagne glasses which made for such a unique and timeless gift.
The intimate space opened up to the dance floor, where their guests were captivated by S+D's first dance which was illuminated by cold sparks for quite the surprise for everyone. After a delicious dinner of homemade tacos off their favorite Taco Truck, some shared heartfelt toasts, and a sweet cake cutting at their expansive dessert bar, the dance floor came alive with energy, keeping the party going well into the night.
