Autumn Wedding in Taos in September

Autumn Wedding in Taos in September

That green grass and orange pumpkins were brilliant in the sunshine on this late September wedding day at El Monte Sagrado. The priest blessed the sacred circle at popular El Monte Sagrado resort in Taos, and thus was able to perform a rare outdoor Catholic wedding ceremony which included communion. The bridesmaids carried brilliant bouquets with red Gerber daisies and multicolored sunflowers. The southwestern sunshine was warm; a perfect New Mexico autumn wedding.

These newlyweds have such a beautiful love story. Gina and Miles are both investigative reporters…cool, right?! Uncool that their careers keep them in different parts of the United States…but they accept it in stride and look forward to a retirement living together somewhere of there dreams. Gina and Miles both came from separate house afar to Taos, NM to enjoy their private pandemic-elopement in the sacred circle at the El Monte Sagrado resort. Although their wedding plans took a giant pivot, these lovebirds flowed with the pandemic and the changes it brought to their should-be-in-Hawaii-50-guest-wedding. Gina laughed as she showed me she was wearing her wedding beach shoes, that she had originally purchased for walking on sand. The falling leaves and dry crisp mountain air was the opposite of a summertime island wedding, but the goal was met after the vows were said and the license was signed. Per usual, Dan Jones of Embracing Ceremony wrote a gorgeous ceremony that was a beautiful reflection of their love.

Another awesome elopement package!! This couple came up to Taos from Albuquerque to escape the big city and to tie-the-knot! Taos had a surprise snow the night prior to this outdoor wedding and the continued wind blew the remaining leaves off of the trees, onto the snow! The wind stood still while the ceremony was performed and the snow brought a quiet beauty. Congrats to Martha and Elias and their blessed wedding on first real snow of 2018!

After decades of being together, this couple decided to exercise their legal right to marry! Gary and Carl were married at four diamond resort, El Monte Sagrado, by Judge Shannon of Taos. The ceremony was short and sweet and ended with Judge Shannon playing the wedding march on his phone, we all had a good chuckle. The day was brisk and the expired leaves textured the trees and ground, it definitely felt like fall.

It was unusually hot outside on this June day, but the large cottonwoods and weeping willows at El Monte Sagrado kept everyone cool at this outdoor wedding! Brittany and Reed were perfectly on time for their photos and we were able to get the pre-wedding, ceremony, and altar photos with out a hiccup (hooray)! The bride and groom and guests had so much fun at the ballroom reception with hilarious photo props and tons of laughing! Congratulations to Brittany and Reed!
