Where to Stay

Accommodation

On the ranch: we've booked Synergia Ranch, about 20 rooms plus camping. Most of you are already sorted with us.
Off-ranch: Ojo Santa Fe Spa Resort is an 18-minute drive; July fills up, so reserve early.
Babies: the rustic overnight is tricky, so we suggest leaving little ones at home. Kids welcome by day, with a baby room on the ranch for early evening.

Getting There

Travel

Two main options for flying in. Plenty of parking is available at the ranch.

Santa Fe · SAF20 min to ranch

Albuquerque · ABQ55 min to ranch

Getting to the ranch

If you're coming just for the weekend and staying at the ranch, we recommend Uber over renting a car. The ranch is about 20 minutes from Santa Fe, and we'll have food and essentials covered, so you shouldn't need your own vehicle. If you're staying off-ranch (Ojo Santa Fe) or adding days in the area, a rental is more convenient.

Carpools

We've created a Google Sheet for flight details. Please add yours so others can coordinate carpools from the airport.

Good to Know

FAQ

Is there a wedding ceremony?

Yes. A short ceremony happens Saturday late morning, right after farm work. See the Schedule.

What's the attire?

Relaxed and ranch-appropriate, with one dressier evening. For the morning farm work and daytime, wear work clothes and boots, then comfortable, sun-friendly layers. Friday dinner is relaxed, backyard-dinner vibe. Saturday evening (from 6 PM) is desert chic, cocktail attire — flowing dresses, linen suits, vintage Western; skip black tie and stilettos. Bring a warm layer; nights drop into the 50s.

Can I bring kids?

Welcome for daytime and early evening. Rustic accommodations make overnight tricky, so we recommend booking a room at Ojo Santa Fe for the kids. We'll set up a baby room on the ranch during the early-evening festivities so parents can stay on-site through dinner, then head back to Ojo for bedtime. See Stay.

Do I need a rental car?

If you're staying at the ranch for the weekend, no. Uber from the airport is easiest, and we've got food and essentials covered. If you're staying off-ranch or extending your trip, a rental makes sense.
