WHAT TO EXPECT
-
Please RSVP using the form located here no later than December 19th.
If at any point your plans change, we kindly ask that you please let us know as soon as possible by email or phone.
-
Listen, we’re asking you to travel out of state to celebrate our big day… there is absolutely NO expectation for additional gifting. Your presence is the most meaningful way to show support.
We have an optional Newlywed Cash Fund set-up through Zola that you’re than welcome to contribute to, if you feel inclined.
-
We invite guests to join us in Santa Fe as early as Tuesday afternoon for reception cocktails at El Rey Court starting at 4:00pm.
Recommended departure date is Friday, May 23rd, as Thursday will be a leisurely day with plenty of group recreational activities with the Grooms and their close friends and family.
We intentionally chose the date as to take advantage of the holiday weekend. Feel free to stick around and enjoy all there is to offer in the Santa Fe area!
-
Please reference our two lodging recommendations here.
El Rey Court will be where we congregate for cocktails on Tuesday evening, and will also be the shuttle pick-up and drop-off location the day of the ceremony.
We also encourage home rentals for more space and privacy. Two Casitas is our favorite rental company— they are conveniently available to book through their website OR through Airbnb.
-
The wedding ceremony is tentatively scheduled to start at 5:30pm. Please note Shuttle pick-up details in the section below.
Dinner, drinks, and dancing to follow. Feel free to bring a change of clothes. We have access to the full property, including rooms to change in.

The 2,000-acre Blame Her Ranch (BHR) sits at the southern most tip of Glorieta Mesa only 45 minutes from Santa Fe, New Mexico.
The ranch’s entire western edge is adjacent to the 1.6 million acre Santa Fe National Forest, which provides extreme privacy. Located at 7,000 feet with both southern and northern views of at least 70 miles—maybe some of the best in all of New Mexico.
There are mature ponderosa pines and pinions throughout the ranch with pasture lands and several seasonal ponds.
-
We welcome everyone to express themselves freely, whether that means blending traditional styles or embracing the bold and beautiful aspects of the Santa Fe desert.
-
We will be offering charter bus services to and from the venue for all of our guests. Please request your space in the RSVP form at the bottom.
Please note that the venue is about a 45 minute drive from Santa Fe, with several dead zones where phone service is limited.
Additional details will be shared as we get closer to the wedding date.

Option 1: Flying into Albuquerque and Renting a Car
Flight: Book a flight to Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ). This airport has more frequent flights and better connectivity from various cities.

Drive to Santa Fe:

Option 2: Flying Directly to Santa Fe

Nestled in the foothills of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, Santa Fe is in the Northern Rio Grande Valley on the southern end of the Rocky Mountains. Take it easy. The City of Santa Fe itself sits at a whopping 7,198 ft above sea level, and is the highest capital city and third highest city in America.
The altitude is no joke. Prepare to take things slow. Up your water consumption and pace your alcohol & cannabis consumption, should you choose to indulge (it is legal in New Mexico).
Santa Fe's climate is dry, with sometimes less than 20 percent humidity. Nights and early mornings are cool, even in July and August.
-
We love your kids, but have decided to host an adults-only reception. We kindly ask that you make arrangements for your children on this day.
Kids are more than welcome at any of the other activities we have planned.
We can't wait to celebrate with you!
