Caroline + Parker, an Electrifying Santa Fe Wedding
Lovers Parker and Caroline’s day was filled with color, music, and a whole lot of joy. These babes’ awe-inspiring Santa Fe day was one that raised the bar to the absolute next level.
Even though all of their friends kept trying to set them up on a blind date together (which they both said no to), Caroline and Parker eventually met through a mutual group friend outing at a haunted house and the sparks immediately flew (Caroline was so scared that she accidentally grabbed Parker’s hand during it). These cuties didn’t talk for a few months after this, but when they ended up in the same class at SMU, they couldn’t deny their shared chemistry anymore. A few years down the road, Parker proposed at the Blanton Museum of Art in Austin and Caroline (of course!) said yes.
Caroline, who is originally from New Mexico, wanted to curate a southwestern daydream wedding in Santa Fe that would truly immerse their guests in some of the most unique parts of The Land of Enchantment. Using the vibrant desert sunset as their color palette, Parker and Caroline brought together some of the most unreal details of all. From florals in every hue of purple, pink, and orange, to invitations and paper goods hand-created by the bride to some truly out of this world reception decor, this wedding was filled to the brim with color! To top off one of the sweetest romances of all, these lovebirds made the music the main attraction of their wedding by including not only a string quartet and a mariachi band, but a live jazz band during the reception. And if that wasn’t quite enough, Carolin and Parker saved the biggest surprise for last: they brought all of their friends and family members to an exclusive after party at the world-famous Meow Wolf with a full on concert by Ben Kweller! These hunnies didn’t just level up stunning weddings, they brought nuptials into a brand new cosmic dimension!
We adored Parker + Caroline so much and already know that they’ll continue to bring so much color, love, and happiness into the world no matter where they go! Cheers to Mr. + Mrs. Hix!
