Miguel & Laurene | an Old Pecos Trail wedding | Santa Fe Wedding Photography | Santa Fe, New Mexico

I'm beaming with excitement and so happy to share with you all Miguel & Laurene's beautiful day! It was my last wedding of 2014 and the absolute loveliest DIY, New Mexican, fairytale themed wedding! 

From the spanish decor incorporating bean filled centerpieces (so darling), papel picado banderitas (mexican cut-out flags) to Laurene's succulent infused bouquet (100% made by the bride & her maids), yet all these sweet touches were COMPLETLY out shined by Laurene's radiant smile every time her handsome groom would look over at her.... It was truly the most perfect blend of celebrating their love and honoring their culture & roots. 

They exchanged the most deepest, sweetest vows and danced the night away with their closest friends and family. It was the greatest privilege to document their love story -- cheers to you Miguel & Laurene, I wish you many, many years of continued love & bliss!! <3

I vow to see you in the light and likeness of God. To honor, support, and respect you each and every day. To trust and confide in you, unafraid to be my most vulnerable self in your presence. To accept you just as the Lord made you, the beautiful wonderful man that you are. To stand by you on the brightest of days and the darkest of nights. No matter what life brings, we will see it through. I promise to celebrate us each and every day. We made it.
