With a rich arts scene and cultural heritage, it’s no wonder Santa Fe is a top destination. With downright breathtaking architecture and a landscape where the desert meets the mountain range, we couldn’t imagine a better backdrop for life’s big milestones and celebrations.
Do you have a 50th wedding anniversary on the horizon? Maybe a throwback stay at a retro boutique hotel is exactly what you need to honor the decades you’ve spent in each other's arms. A corporate gathering that needs to be sorted? Maybe a cocktail reception in a sunny courtyard would rejuvenate employee spirits. It may sound like a pipe dream, but these and so much more are available right here in Santa Fe.
Being a host can be expensive, but don’t let that dissuade you. Our #1 priority is to offer you premium quality properties at affordable prices so you can keep on honing your hosting skills even when money’s tight.
Let’s bring those visions to life! No dream is too big when Santa Fe, Giggster, and a party planner extraordinaire (YOU) are teamed up!
Looking for the coolest space in New Mexico for your next event? When working with Giggster, the perfect venue could look a little something like this:
Give this year’s birthday parties a southeastern twist at a bar with good snacks, local brews, and tons of tequila. These beer garden-style patios also have live music capabilities, so turn up the volume or dial it down for a low-key afternoon gathering.
Sure, you could use corporate spaces to get down to business, but they’re also perfect for smaller events like a baby shower for a fellow employee. Tiny but mighty, with modern furnishings, these meeting rooms offer simplicity at its finest. Just bring in a fruit tray, a vat of coffee, and finger foods for a short and sweet celebration lasting just an hour or two.
If you want plenty of room, natural light, and an events team with an affinity for making everything run smoothly, choose a multi-use event space. They are highly versatile with mixed seating arrangements and offer everything you need to keep your group comfortable and cheerful.
In many ways, a retro boutique hotel is the ideal destination to make your event special. With stylish lounges, pool bars, and hot tubs, you’re guaranteed the ultimate staycation experience. The use of luxury amenities for the day will surely give your party an upgrade, and overnight guests can even crash onsite!
Exceptional Variety & Quality: From tequila bars to bohemian art studios, our app is teeming with over 19 top-notch event venues with the Santa Fe feel.
Hassle-Free Booking: What sets us apart from the competition? Our app is so easy to navigate that virtually anyone will find what they are looking for and knock a venue hire off their to-do list faster than lightning, but that’s not all! We’re also downright affordable with costs as low as $38/hour.
24-Hour Free Cancellation Policy: If you don’t get your party planning right the first time, there’s no harm in starting over. Whether it’s the date, venue, or time you wish you hadn’t committed to so quickly, you can cancel your reservation for up to 24 hours after the booking is made (as long as your party is over 48 hours away).
Platform Protections: You want the best for your private events, and that means the ideal setting such as Historic Old fashion House in Santa Fe, but that can come with some anxiety. Add an optional protection plan while checking out and we’ll take some of those disruption, damage, and liability concerns off your hands.
Santa Fe, NM, is a beautiful city full of enchanting venues, but it’s not without its faults. Taking a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the destination’s pros and cons (especially when it comes to party planning) will help you be a better host.
Advantages
New Mexico as a whole has a thriving wine industry, and nearly 50 vineyards within driving distance of Santa Fe, affording the city a fabulous selection of local wines.
The historical Santa Fe architecture and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains both make stunning backdrops for any special occasion.
Both the culinary and arts scenes in Santa Fe are well-regarded by locals and tourists alike.
Disadvantages
The tourism season spikes costs for locals on food and services, which can cause an unavoidable bump in the required party budget.
The local buses are not overly well-connected and walkability is limited, making a personal vehicle (or rental car or rideshare) a necessity.
Santa Fe is highly susceptible to extreme weather conditions and temperature swings between seasons. To avoid extreme heat or large amounts of snow, the spring and autumn months are your best bet.
Whether you’re looking for a singular setting or a larger wedding venue with space to flow from cocktails to dinner to live entertainment, we’ve got you covered. Our selection of fabulous venues is sure to leave a lasting impression on your guests.
Art Studios and Galleries – Calling all Creatives! Embrace the indie vibe of Downtown Santa Fe at one of its vibrant art spaces. You could hop on the pottery wheels and throw some clay with pals, peruse the work of local artisans as you sip the finest pours from the local wine industry and nibble on farmer’s market cheeses, or host a paint and sip. If you ask us, it's the perfect solution for your girls' night out or team-building workshop with co-workers.
Spanish Casitas – Classic New Mexico Curb Appeal. Is your studio apartment not quite company-ready? No problem. Invite your friends over for a house party, unlike anything they’ve seen before with a traditional local house. With clay walls, mosaic tiles, and mixed wood furnishings, you can practically feel the rich history of this unique city around every corner. This is the ideal way to host gatherings with a bit of local flavor while still offering the feel of home.
Garden Courtyards – A Slice of Paradise. Go green for your next event! A stunning outdoor space is perfect for all things wedding, including rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, and ceremonies, but that’s not all! You also host a family reunion or quinceanera in this idyllic setting. You may even find a greenhouse or two for intimate dinners that are guaranteed to add a sophisticated flair.
Mountainside Retreats – Sophisticated Seclusion. Looking for the best sunset views in town? Take your party out to the Sangre de Cristo foothills, where sprawling properties can give you easy access to all the comforts of home. This unique brand of indoor/outdoor living feels expensive and you can choose from houses with a variety of decor styles to suit your own. The most popular? Santa Fe’s signature eclectic, bohemian vibe.
Finding the right place to celebrate isn’t the only thing you need to throw the perfect party. Whether you need help nailing down the initial logistics or ways to add a fun, personal touch to your special day, implementing these planning tips will have a big impact on your final result.
Hire Unexpected Entertainment – To take things from enjoyable to unforgettable, offer an experience your guests won’t find anywhere else (and don’t tell them about it beforehand). Bring in a tarot reader, a caricature artist, or a florist to guide everyone in braiding flower crowns to turn the party on its head.
Develop Good Relationships with Your Vendors – Trust us, when you find the good ones, it’s worth investing the time in fostering that relationship. If you live locally and anticipate hosting more events in the future, you can cut your planning time in half by sticking with your tried and true roster of pros that you know offer an exceptional client experience. Many reward repeat clients with the odd discount or “going the extra mile”, so there’s really no downside to being kind and getting to know each other.
Make Vendor Deposits and Sign Contracts as Soon as You’ve Made Your Decision – Sometimes dragging your feet can cause you to miss out and in a busy industry like this, in-demand services book quickly. Also, if you’ve decided to go in another direction, a courtesy email is much appreciated as vendors may have other clients anxiously in line for that date.
Give Yourself a Good Buffer Window When Booking Your Venue – You’re going to need time to set up and tear down. Not only are you susceptible to random delays like anyone else, but you may also be at the mercy of specific vendors' availability for deliveries as well as guests who may linger past the party’s end time. Do yourself a favor and give yourself a few hours on either end to work to avoid logistical headaches.
Your special occasion doesn’t need to cost an arm or a leg either. If you could use some help in the money-saving department, pair these budgeting tips with a unique venue at a low price.
Go child-free.
Listen, we know little ones are a lot of fun and you may have a few guests who can’t attend if they can’t find a babysitter, but the truth is, children can add a fair bit of cost to an event without really getting much from the experience. They will contribute to your headcount for catering for a meal they may not eat and will likely require some sort of additional entertainment to keep them happy and safe. If you were on the fence about this one, allow your wallet to be the push you need to make this an adult-only affair.
Avoid the tourist season.
As we mentioned earlier, tourist season in Santa Fe jacks up the prices of just about everything- including events. If you want to save money across the board, try to plan your party between November and March.
Stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
A personal touch here and there will make your party stand out, but don’t get caught up in the comparison hamster wheel on social media. Not every event needs to be like “nothing anyone has ever seen before”. Because you know what usually follows elaborate dreams and big expectations? Excessive spending. Do a few things to give your event its own unique flair and then stick to the basics. Sometimes less is more.
Santa Fe, New Mexico, is the ideal destination for hosting your friends and family. From a wedding reception in a stone courtyard to a house party in the mountainside, the Giggster app is the perfect place to search for an epic event space for your next celebration.
