Yes, we know, we’re always fawning over some beautiful wedding celebration or another, but really, when considering the heart and history that leads up to the wedding day, the magic begins […]
Chrisi K Photography {Vendor Spotlight + Real Wedding}
By now you might have noticed that we kind of have a thing for local photographers. It’s not that we don’t love every wedding professional equally {we do!}, it’s just that photographers give us the chance to live vicariously through their lens.

Real, Regal Wedding at the Event Center at Sandia Golf Club
There’s a distinctly magical quality about the Sandia Mountains here in New Mexico. Not fairytale-Disneyland type of magic, per se, but something like no other.
