The Santa Fe Plaza is a National Historic Landmark and also the heart of the city with trees, park benches, a bandstand, artisan & food stands. From here you can peruse the Native American sellers with jewelry and pottery on the sidewalk in front of the Palace of the Governors (Fun Fact: The Palace of the Governors is four centuries old, a National Historic Landmark AND NM's oldest museum!). Saint Francis Cathedral is just down the street the Plaza, the historic La Fonda Hotel (go up to the Bell Tower for a margarita and spectacular views!) plus the Georgia O'Keefe Museum, NM Museum of Art and Gruet Tasting Room are within walking distance.
Poppin' bottles! Adam and I simply adore a great bottle of champagne and Gruet's Blanc de Blanc and Rosé are two of our favorites. Grab a seat and order a flight!
There are tons of hiking trails around the Santa Fe area and Adam is quickly becoming an expert hiker. Join Adam as he guides you a scenic path, marveling at the beautiful vistas that Santa Fe has to offer. Be sure to bring some comfortable walking shoes, water and a snack!
Join Joshua on Saturday as he leads you down the Santa Fe Margarita Trail! You will be given the official Santa Fe Margarita Trail Passport where 45 of the best margaritas will be mapped out. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, slather on the SPF before we set out on this adventure!
This is one of Joshua's favorite places! A treasure trove of jewelry, books, knick knacks, art, clothing - bring your wallet and a good 2 hours to explore it all. Be sure to say "Hi!" to John & Everett!
Ojo Santa Fe is a little oasis in the middle of, what feels like, nowhere. Saltwater pool, spa, thermal water hot tubs, restaurant, hiking trails, disc golf, hatchet throwing, there is just about something for everyone to enjoy.
A five day event featuring 90 national wineries pairing up with Santa Fe's best restaurants for cooking demos, wine seminars and winery luncheons and dinners. Sounds like the perfect festival for Adam and Joshua's wedding celebration weekend!
Tomasita's is one of Santa Fe's most famous restaurants and well worth the visit. It is just a short walk from the Santa Fe Plaza which makes it the perfect lunch spot or just pop in for a refreshing margarita. Best nachos in Santa Fe, hands down.
If you have a day to spare then be sure to check out all of the lavender goodness at Los Poblanos! Shop for all things lavender: lavender salt, lavender sugar, lotion, shampoos all sourced from their farm. Pop over to Campo, the onsite restaurant, for a bite and be sure to order a lavender margarita or the Lavender '99.
