WHAT: Una Fiesta Fantastica

WHEN: September 26th, 2026

WHERE: Kendall Mountain Lodge

COORDINATORS: Steph, Dante, Sarah, + Amber

VIBES: Relaxed, Windy, Family Oriented

These are a few of my favorite things:

Papel Picados! Ole!

Merin + Thomas incorporated New Mexican decor from papel picados to talavera vases. It really set the mood for a fiesta night of eating, drinking, and dancing. The reception was so colorful and uplifting.

When the Wind Blows!

We prepared for rain, but didn't account for the wind. The wind was a great prop for pictures. Merin's beautifully long vail delicately ruffled in the wind, which made for stunning photos and video.

Graze!

Cocktail hour catering by Graze Colorado was to die for! It wasn’t your typical charcuterie spread, but was a spread of: meatballs, crackers, jams, candy, fruit, veggies, gourmet olives, chips + dips, and more! Tell me you work in the restaurant industry without telling me, I mean come on!
