Reviews of La Fonda on The Plaza
Best Choice of Our Wedding
As for the hotel itself, photos really do not do justice to what a unique and beautiful location it is. The majority of our guests came from out-of-town and couldn’t stop talking about how wonderful the hotel was with its service, art, history, and food. The Terraza rooftop was stunning both in photos and in real life – our friends’ iPhone photos from the reception during sunset look professional quality because the light is so amazing. We were really impressed with the food quality at our tasting and for the event itself, a friend who is a former chef at Michelin restaurants commented on how much he enjoyed everything.
Hats off to David
Simply the best!
Additionally, we partook in a brilliant tradition at La Fonda: we hired Mariachis (via Absolute Entertainment) who hid behind the guests during the ceremony and began to play immediately after we were pronounced husband and wife, surprising and delighting our guests. Then they led everyone on a march around the Santa Fe Plaza, including a stop in the middle of the plaza to dance. This was one of the best parts of our wedding, and such a fun and unique experience for our guests.
With respect to David, he’s something special. David was so attentive about every detail and made every step of the process simple. He was easy to contact and quick to respond to emails during the planning process, and he made us feel truly special and not just another couple on the long list of people to be married at La Fonda. Our wedding was perfect, and it’s because of the hard work and professionalism exhibited by David and his team.
