Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Chelsea Bartlett and Axiao Daniels
New Mexico has been Axiao’s home for most of his life, and when Chelsea’s parents moved here in 2017 it didn’t take long for her to see the beautiful magic this state has to offer. The two have spent many hours driving all over the state and are excited to share just a small handful of the places that make them love living here. Below are some locations to explore, play, and eat both local to Albuquerque and extending out to Santa Fe and beyond. Create your own adventure here during your stay!
