A Guide to New Mexico Weddingscapes
In New Mexico, the light, culture, landscape, and legendary architecture lend to stunning wedding pictures. Periodically, I'll profile a different, historically-rich weddingscape. Look for more venues in my Photolog.
Featured below is the Lodge of Santa Fe property, which can accommodate wedding galas for up to 300 guests, as well a simple destination weddings. The northern New Mexico-style chapel has a skylight to counter the earthen walls. The santero altar makes for a colorful backdrop for the ceremony. Though the grounds are crowded, there are plenty of architectural angles and views to frame the bride and groom. Small receptions can take place in a private dining area in Las Mananitas Restaurant with grand views of the mountains and Santa Fe lights. Located just south of the Santa Fe Opera.
