A natural choice for same-sex ceremonies

All Faiths Weddings is LGBTQ+-owned and says it is quickly becoming a popular choice for same-sex weddings. The business offers tailored ceremonies for couples who do not want a standard script or a vow renewal that feels generic.

Destination couples

The business also specializes in destination weddings for couples from out of state or out of the country. It offers guidance from an experienced New Mexico officiant who can connect you with local people and places. It also says its relationship with wedding venues is excellent.

Planning a ceremony with an officiant

• Share how you met, and what you want guests to understand
• Ask whether you can write your own vows
• Decide how much religious content to include
• Confirm the officiant can sign your New Mexico license
• Ask about a rehearsal

Marriage licenses are issued by county clerks, and you will usually both need to appear. Confirm local requirements before you travel.

Marrying in New Mexico

The state offers desert, mountain and historic venues, and weather and altitude can affect an outdoor ceremony. Ask the officiant for a simple timeline, and discuss how long the ceremony should be for guests standing in the sun. Booking early helps in popular fall months, especially around local festivals.
