A Whimsical Wedding in a Los Ranchos De Albuquerque Vineyard | Natalie + Patrick

September 21, 2023

When Natalie and Patrick joined a dating app, who would have thought that they would have found true love?! Patrick was stationed in Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, and Natalie had just moved to Las Cruces, NM to start medical school. Their first date was something out of rom-com movie. Two of Natalie’s best friends were hiding at a table nearby to keep a watchful eye on the two, and gradually moving closer and closer until they were sitting right behind the couple. When Natalie told Pat she knew the pair, they all laughed so much that night! Three years later, Pat popped the question at the same place they had their first date and the rest is history!

Natalie and Patrick wanted to create a classic and luxurious wedding that they could look back on in years to come and still feel like it was timeless. And what better way to do that than with a classic 1954 Porsche 356 A Speedster out front to welcome guests? Natalie wore a magnificent Martina Liana combined with the most beautiful embroidered veil. The classic flowers of roses, peonies and eucalyptus were placed everywhere from the ceremony through to the reception. We loved that guests had cocktail hour in the middle of the vineyard while they sipped signature drinks and listened to a live jazz band. When it came time to party, everyone joined the Newlyweds in the traditional La Marche over to the dance floor in a separate hidden area. The luxurious white dance floor with their initials on it was a personal fav as guests danced the night away while doing tequila shots with Carmelita the donkey!

Congrats Natalie and Patrick, your day was a dream!
