Wedding Inspo - Wedding Cakes

If you know our team, you know that wedding cakes hold such a big space in our hearts. Truth be told, we’re downright obsessed with seeing how our couples bring together their unique style with this traditional staple.

Each and every season brings out new cake trends as well as the classic styles we’ve come to absolutely adore over the years. We’ve been crushing so dang hard on all of the funky shag rug cakes, incredible heart-shaped beauties, and those pressed flower darlings, but we’re also major fans of those ever-so-stunning buttercream floral cakes that compliment literally any wedding out there. And the best of all is when we get to witness a perfect blend of a tried and true trend with something brand new (peep that floral cake adorned with custom made jewelry shapes below!).

We’re so dang ready to kick off our 2022 season and see all of those deliciously divine creations every single weekend, bring on all the sugar-coated goodness!

Wedding Inspo - Colorado Weddings

New Mexico may be our gorgeous home state, but dang do we absolutely adore Colorado weddings and elopements. Every once in awhile, we get to journey up to our northern sister state and it always blows us away with its stunning views and amazing celebrations.

From front porch weddings in the heart of Denver to stellar weddings on remote ranches to the most beautiful bashes among red rock formations, we’ve seen an incredibly vast amount of out-of-this-world days. We love the way the cities of Colorado are just as welcoming and cozy as the larger than life mountain ranges and state parks.

We can’t wait to be back in colorful Colorado for even more captivating days with the most lovely couples around!

Brant + Sharayah, a Colorado Wedding at Paradise Ranch

After 2020 forced them to change their wedding plans not once, but twice, Las Cruces lovers Brant and Shay finally said “I do” high up in the mountains of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. This pretty day had some of the most beautiful views around!

Paradise Ranch, a hidden gem of Colorado, provided the perfect place for every single piece of Brant and Shay’s day. From the coziest bridal suite where our queen Genica Lee gave Shay the most heavenly bridal glam to an open field with a free-flowing stream for the sweetest first look to the most rustic-chic open air cabin for a dreamy first dance, this location was absolutely made for these lovers. To top off an amazing ceremony and reception, we got to sneak away with Brant and Shay for the most stunning golden hour romantics, complete with all those infamous Colorado views.

This quick trip up to Colorado was endlessly beautiful, cheers to a lifetime of love together Brant and Shay!
