Weddingbee boards

@CellaDee: I live in Durango, CO, but will be getting married in Santa Fe this September.  I lived in NM for 10 years & worked for a caterer there.  I think Los Poblanos and Casa de Suenos in Albuquerque are very nice.  We are looking for a private home to have our small (30pp) wedding.  So far, not much luck.

@nmsoonerbride:  I am getting married in Santa Fe also.  Do you know who her planner was? 

@Butterfly119: I am getting married on June 16, 2012 and our ceremony is being held at Elena Gallegos. It definitely is not widely known probably due to the casual-ness of the location. However, this spot has huge sentimental value to my honey and I (this is our hiking spot since we first started dating!).

We are renting out the Double Shelter area (can't book it until November due to park people getting first dibs) and it holds 50. We are only having our ceremony here and then our reception at Sandia Golf Club. It costs $50 dollars to rent and it has beautiful ampitheater seating with views of the city and the mountains behind everyone. I know the Kiwanis shelter has plenty of room for catering (and way more capacity for people) and has a covered area, but our only con was that it didn't have as good as a view. However, for our ceremony, that was the important piece which may not be the case for you! It also is just as inexpensive, I think around 100 dollars.

I know you posted this awhile ago but I just found it and thought I would place my input in case you were still looking! We are so excited to be wed at Elena Gallegos and whatever you decide on, you will be just as excited. We are also quite budget conscious :) Best of luck to you! We're both nearing the 6 month mark, how exciting :)

Hi all,

Has anyone looked into Los Poblanos?  Do you know what their prices are like, or if it's through-the-roof pricey?  How about any comparable venues?
