Caley and James, Loretto Chapel

Do you ever look at a couple and think wow those two are going to have one interesting, lively, hilarious life together? That’s the exact sentiment that I had in my heart while choosing highlights to show you from their perfectly planned celebration. This gorgeous summer day in sweet ole Santa Fe New Mexico is everything classic wedding dreams are made of. The bride was an absolute vision donning an elegant lace wedding gown while her delicate bouquet, adorned with beautiful anemones and garden roses by Artichoke and Pomegranates, was the perfect floral accessory to match. James is in the running for our most dapper groom of the year and was channeling major James Bond vibes. For this Mr. and Mrs, spending their day walking into their forever in a modern, yet timeless chapel and venue with lots of natural lighting and endless photo opportunities was always written in the cards and that is exactly what they found at Loretto Chapel and La Fonda on the Plaza.

#WeddingWednesday is in full effect and has me smiling from ear to ear, capture after capture, because the connection that Caley and James share is not only electric but their playfulness is palpable and IMO that might be the most endearing quality when it comes to romance. Joanne Woodward said, “Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that’s a real treat.” We couldn’t agree more Joanne! There were lots of laughs but also lots of profound emotions floating around on this wedding day, just wait until you see the groom’s face when he catches that first glimpse of his bride coming down the aisle… oh my gosh our hearts! So many beautiful things to witness with these two and we hope you will grab some tissue, get cozy, get your scrolling finger and relive this beautiful day with us….
