Venue considerations

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
Taos Ski Valley was our dream wedding location, but due to increased costs we decided to book with a more affordable venue a few miles away. Well, you get what you pay for! After chaotic months of planning with Angel Fire Resort staff, this more affordable venue ended up canceling our wedding with less than two months to our wedding date. We immediately called Taos Ski Valley to find that they still had our wedding date available. Thank goodness! We booked with Taos Ski Valley and experienced a flawless wedding in less than two months planning. We're grateful for Taos Ski Valley, the Blake Hotel, and all the amazing staff! We highly recommend this wedding venue, if you can afford it. Five stars all around!
