7:45 pm - 11:00 pm
Desert Chic
WELCOME TO NEW MEXICO! We hope you can join us to kick off the weekend and celebrate the Summer Solstice together! We recommend you get dinner before the event- see some recommendations under "Things to Do". We will provide transportation to and from The Blake hotel. The bus will leave the Blake at 7:30pm to head to Saltos (Please be on time!) and we will arrange two return shuttles around 10:30pm and 11pm. You can drive to this venue if you would prefer! Our Welcome Party is meant to be a fun celebration in the desert! The "Desert Chic" attire is totally optional! You can also google "Woodstock chic" or "70's Desert wedding" or "Western wedding". Think Bolo ties, cowboy boots, rancher hats, turquoise jewelry, and earth tones. We have posted an inspiration collage in our media section. But have fun with it if you'd like!
4:30 pm - 5:00 pm
Cocktail Attire
Come join us as we say "I do"! We will provide transportation from The Blake Hotel to the ceremony site. The site is accessible by car up a 2 mile dirt road- but parking is limited. Taking the bus is strongly encouraged! There will be a shuttle that leaves at 2:20pm and 3pm, we apologize for the early departure time as there is only one shuttle. There is The Bavarian Restaurant next to the ceremony site if you would like to grab drinks before the wedding.
5:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Cocktail Attire
Cocktail Hour with a family-style dinner and dancing to follow. Fun fact: Brooke met Chase on a dance floor... so be ready to dance the night away! This is a quick walk from the ceremony site, but transportation will be provided if needed. Transportation will return guests to the Blake Hotel when needed during or after the reception. The two set departure times for the shuttle are 10:30pm and 11pm.
