For us wedding lovers, it’s no secret that New Mexico’s community of wedding professionals is something truly special.
(And for those of you who aren’t in the loop yet, we spend each week here, in this corner of the internet, sharing collaborative shoots styled to perfection, real weddings that make our hearts flutter, and features on real local vendors!)
But what is it about our community here in the southwest that makes it so special? Is it the gorgeous landscape that backdrops each wedding and shoot? Is it our near-constant sunshine and famously loved blue skies?
Yes, it’s a little bit of those things, too, but the real answer lies in the question: community.
Whether it’s coming together with a handful of other New Mexico creatives to cultivate some local wedding-inspiration that’s to die for, working side-by-side together on an engaged couple’s special day, or sharing the tools needed to be successful with one another, our local wedding vendors have an extremely strong sense of community.
They know that, with thousands of weddings in New Mexico, there’s always enough for everyone, and that’s what makes us such a tight-knit and supportive community.
So it should come as no surprise that the Wedding Collective New Mexico is hosting another edition of one of our favorite events: the WedTalks Conference!
This collaborative event is geared toward elevating and expanding the abilities of our wedding community — and having fun while we do it! With educational talks from locally-loved wedding experts, each creative who attends gets a jump-start on upcoming trends, and the opportunity to have one-on-one conversations with industry leaders.
But before we start rambling about how much we love this event, let’s dive into the good stuff! Here are 8 things wedding professionals can expect to learn and master after this day-long virtual conference.
