We are obsessed with Elephant Ranch. The perfect southwest beer garden with amazing drinks and tacos. This is where we took our engagement photos!
Grounded Lounge & Cafe

One of our favorite restaurants! Adorable family-run lounge with the best coffee, wine, and wood fired pizza right on Main Street. Make sure to sit in the courtyard for the best vibes.

Farmers and Crafts Market of Las Cruces

Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument
Las Cruces, NM
Beautiful hikes near the Organ Mountains and not far from town :)
Tortugas Mountain
Las Cruces, NM
Rocky incline hike but a great view at the top!
White Sands National Park
NM
About an hour drive from Las Cruces, but totally worth it! We recommend going at sunset for the best vibes. You can hike (early in the morning since it gets hot!) or you can grab a picnic blanket, bottle of wine, and watch the sun go down on a sand dune.
