Beautiful Experience at TSV!

Our wedding weekend at TSV / The Blake was truly a dream. We picked TSV because of the vibe that is created by being nestled in the middle of GORGEOUS mountains, the beautiful rooms and amenities at The Blake, and the little shops and restaurants in the center of it all. One thing that my husband and I loved is that the entire weekend we could go to grab coffee, go on a hike, or go grab some food and we would run into our closest friends and family. TSV created an environment that surpassed our hopes for our wedding weekend. On top of all this, the staff we worked with (Sara Coyne, Lauryn Mangat) became friends. They cared about our vision (even when it was not exactly easy or convenient lol), respected our budget, and worked with us and our planner to make not just our wedding day, but our wedding weekend, extremely special. TSV will forever have a piece of our hearts and we are so excited to visit in the years to come!

Day of wedding

The staff at Taos Ski Valley Resort we're all amazing! They made our special weekend and the day of the wedding so special. It was a memorable moment for sure with the rain and making it a Twilight moment. Lauryn and Sara are the two that made sure things went on track and to make sure we had umbrellas. Every preparation for the wedding came out beautiful. If you want to have a wedding this is the place with beauty from the mountains.

Amazing experience

We loved Taos Ski Valley so much for our venue. It was the absolute best. Lauryn and Sara Coyne are both absolutely amazing to work with as well. Lauryn was there from the very beginning helping our wedding dreams get planned and on paper, then Sara brought it to life. Each are so sweet and it was such a pleasure working with both of them in preparation for our wedding day. We could not ask for nicer people or a more beautiful and fun wedding venue. We cannot recommend Taos Ski Valley enough!

Magical Day!

We were very pleased with the overall experience at Taos Ski Valley for our wedding--from the planning to the service and execution on our special day. We had the ceremony at the platform and the reception at the Bavarian. All of the details from the sound system, order of operations, food, drinks, etc. were addressed ahead of time and everything went smoothly. What a memorable and magical day!

Magical Wedding Weekend

We got married this past June in Taos and it was nothing short of Magical. I'll be honest- I worried about everything (the weather, the transfers, Friday night cocktails, decorations, etc) but the stars aligned and we had such a great overall experience! We are avid skiers and enjoy Taos in the winter but had never visited in the summer. A major summer perk is the beautiful waterfall in the background of the Phoenix (which I wasn't expecting!). The Bavarian holds a special place in our hearts so getting to have cocktails there Friday night was amazing! The weather held out- it wasn't too hot or too cold. Getting to keep the doors open all night long at the Phoenix was really nice. Sara and Lauryn were great to work with- no question felt dumb. We had a few guests tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to. I recommend this venue for your wedding!

Falling in Love in Taos Ski Valley

We hade our wedding at the Taos Ski Valley in October. We have nothing, but positive things to say about this venue. They worked with us every step of the way. They understood how important this day was to us and they did not hesitate to answer our questions or go out of their way to help us. Both Lauryn and Sara are amazing. They set up planning meetings, have tasting events, and really make the Blake feel like home. The catering staff were kind and helpful. The food was amazing. We had multiple people tell us that the food was the best wedding food they had ever had. The pricing is reasonable for all that we received. The venue offers spectacular views and the space is perfect. We loved our experience and will always be thankful for our decision to work with the Blake.

Review for Taos Ski Valley and The Blake Wedding Venue

I recently had the pleasure of hosting my wedding at Taos Ski Valley and utilizing their stunning wedding venue, The Blake. I cannot express enough how impressed and thrilled my husband and I were with the entire experience. From start to finish, the staff, the scenery, and the overall ambiance exceeded our expectations.

First and foremost, the team at Taos Ski Valley was incredibly professional, attentive, and accommodating. From the very beginning of the planning process, they were there to answer any questions we had and provided us with valuable guidance. Their expertise in wedding coordination was evident as they seamlessly handled all the logistical details, ensuring that everything ran smoothly on our special day.

The Blake wedding venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. Nestled in the heart of the Taos Ski Valley, the venue boasts stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and landscape. The modern, yet rustic design of the space perfectly encapsulates the charm and beauty of the area. It provided the perfect backdrop for both our ceremony and reception, allowing our guests to fully immerse themselves in the magical atmosphere.

One of the aspects that stood out the most to us was the level of personalization and customization they offered. The team went above and beyond to understand our vision and bring it to life. From the decor to the menu, every detail was executed with precision and reflected our unique style. They worked closely with us to curate a menu that catered to our dietary preferences and ensured that our guests' culinary experience was exceptional.

They made sure that our guests felt welcomed and taken care of throughout the entire event. The coordination between the venue staff and our wedding planner was seamless, allowing us to relax and enjoy the day without any worry.

Furthermore, the surrounding amenities and activities available at Taos Ski Valley added an extra layer of enjoyment to our wedding weekend.

Perfect Mountain Wedding

This was the only venue we looked at - We've known we only wanted to get married here for years. Our TSV Wedding experience began with the Sales Manager who worked with us for months to set up the perfect wedding and contract for our vision. The Events Manager then takes over, who knows the venue inside and out to create your vision in the venue. We absolutely loved the venue, the setting is gorgeous. But the people you get to work with make it so special. One other thing to mention is that the food is incredible. We did the Rio Hondo Buffet and are still talking about the food with our guests months later. The green and red chile with enchiladas + the red chile chocolate sauce on the churros - seriously drooling writing about it now. If you're looking for the perfect mountain wedding, you've found it!

It was the most beautiful day of my life

We had the most perfect wedding. Robin was amazing at planning and accommodating everyone in our party. The manager at the Blake even let us have a pizza party in the penthouse suite so we could all have dinner together the night before the wedding. He even sent an employee to go into Taos and pick up the pizzas. Everyone at The Blake was so professional and kind.

Dream wedding!

I can’t say enough good things about the Taos Ski Valley team - they were organized, thoughtful, incredibly creative, and so flexible as we navigated COVID restrictions. The wedding was planned remotely and very DIY, and they were so receptive to and helpful with all of the logistics and challenges that come with that. A few of our guests say that they’ve never been to such a gorgeous location for a wedding, and while I’m biased, I feel the same way - it was so special for our friends and family to gather here and celebrate in such a beautiful place in the world. Thank you, Taos Ski Valley team!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
