Austin sweethearts Ben and Bri have quite the soft spot for little old Santa Fe, so when they decided to tie the knot, these hunnies just knew The City Different would be the most perfect place to make their love just a tiny bit more official. From beginning to end this intimate soirée was one filled with intention, beauty, and love.
Bri and Ben first met in Houston via Bumble in 2019 and even though their relationship started off slow, these two quickly realized just how special their connection was going to be to both of them. After they both made the move to Austin in 2020 with their two dogs, Birdie and Blue, Ben and Bri began to spend extra time each year in Santa Fe. From skiing to hiking to drinking margaritas to exploring New Mexico’s rich culture, these lovers began to feel right at home in The Land of Enchantment. A few years into their dream of a relationship, Ben surprised Bri with the sweetest little proposal. Along with their two pups, these cuties headed for a a Saturday morning hike and at the top of Mount Bonnell, Ben popped the question. To top it all off, Ben even planned a brunch with their families to celebrate the event.
For their big day, two elements were a must for Bri and Ben: their wedding needed to be intimate and it needed to be at a place that evoked the truest spirit of Santa Fe. These hunnies knew that La Posada, right near the heart of the Santa Fe Plaza, would create the most stunning backdrop for their day and that a little magic from Lauren of Just Lovely Weddings could make all of their wedding day dreams come true. From the most chic, modern bridal look to lush florals to a candlelit dinner to dancing the night away at their after party at the iconic Pink Adobe, Ben and Bri truly knew just how to ring in marriage in style. We’re in awe of these angels and their unreal day.
We can’t wait to see what fresh adventures married life brings these true babes, cheers to it all!
