During our years hosting and facilitating New Mexico weddings we have worked to establish some control over our lives, both personal and professional.
In the very personal business of Weddings there can be a very fuzzy line between the two.

So what is the difference between a Surprise, an Unforeseen Development or heaven forbid a Crisis?

Last minute wedding changes can be exhilarating or difficult. It is just a matter of perspective.

Which brings me to the subject of this posting.

They come in a variety of categories, these last minute Santa Fe weddings.
1. Why wait?
We are engaged, we want to be married and we want to be married right now.

2. Won’t the folks back home be surprised?
Santa Fe is so beautiful,  we want to get married while we are here on vacation.

3. Change of plans because now we are:
a. expecting a baby (congratulations!)
b. moving, transferred, deployed (lots to do)
c. accepted into a graduate program (going to be very busy)
d. exhausted by it all (wedding plans got out of hand, huh?)

4. Oh my gosh, we forgot to get married!
Been engaged so long that people have stopped asking “When’s the wedding?” so let’s just do it!

Sometimes there is just the two of you, simple and intimate. You call on Tuesday for a Thursday afternoon ceremony. A few precious words, you kiss and off you go.

Often we are asked to take up an entire wedding plan for next year and move it to next month. In such cases the couple often wants very few alterations (maybe change the flowers from spring tuplips to autumn sunflowers, perhaps just let the gown out a little). Your guests can get caught up in the sparkling energy of a “moved up” wedding, making these some of the most festive and fun we’ve seen.

Whatever your reasons might be for a planning your Santa Fe wedding with just hours, days or weeks until the “I Do” you can be confident that the professional wedding team here at Hacienda Dona Andrea is standing by ready for a call such as yours.

From our perspective, way up here on this beautiful mountain, there are no unforseen developments,  never a crisis.

It is all one big, wonderful, exciting surprise to us…everytime!

How about you, what do you think ?
