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!

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!

Our wedding day in Taos Ski Valley was absolutely incredible! We decided to do a small ceremony in the mountains of NM and it was purely magical! Working with the Taos event coordinators, Sara and Lauryn, made our day go so smoothly and they really worked hard to see our vision come to life! The staff were extremely helpful, accommodating and responsive to our questions and inquiries. It will be a day we never forget!

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.
The service provided by the staff was impeccable. The waitstaff was attentive, friendly, and handled every request with a smile. 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. Our guests had the opportunity to indulge in skiing, snowboarding, and other winter activities, making our wedding weekend a truly unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
Overall, hosting our wedding at Taos Ski Valley and utilizing The Blake wedding venue was an absolute dream come true. The picturesque location, personalized service, and exceptional attention to detail exceeded our expectations and created a truly magical experience for us and our guests. We highly recommend Taos Ski Valley and The Blake to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind wedding venue that will leave a lasting impression.

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), 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!

We got married June 2023. Lauryn M was who we were in contact with the most, and through the whole process. She was very organized and helpful when it came it picking out the details, and was able to answer every question and concern we had! We had our ceremony at the Kachina basin. Overall it was a very beautiful location minus all the downed trees from a previous storm. Our reception was held at the Bavarian (we were told we were the first wedding to be held there) it was very easy for our guests to walk from the ceremony site to the Bavarian. Our wedding was held outside on the deck. The Bavarian did have a fixed menu so we were not able to change anything, but the food was very very good. We were however able to opt out of their dessert and bring our own. They also provided all the silverware and plate settings. We did not have a DJ but were we able to plug in our phone and play the music through their speaker system. Lauryn and the other Taos staff members were with us the whole time and were able to accommodate for all our requests.

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!
