Welcome to The Stakeout
All-inclusive Weddings | restaurant | drinks | live music | Mountain Views
The legendary Taos hideaway of desperados and outlaws — from Billy the Kid to Dennis Hopper — The Stakeout is New Mexico’s premier all-inclusive wedding venue, a reprieve from modern life, and an iconic location for ceremonies and celebrations. Perched atop Outlaw Hill, at 7,200 ft., The Stakeout offers an intimate setting for destination weddings.
Whether you’re saying “I do” against the backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, enjoying world class cocktails and food or vibing to live music under the desert stars, you’ll feel the Taos magic here. Come as you are, soak in those views, meet a new friend, and embrace outlaw style.

This New Mexico venue has so much spirit!
The Stakeout is THE WEDDING VENUE of Northern New Mexico. Its offering of Adobe arches, outdoor patios, chimeneas, and some of the best drink chemists in the southwest, all the while surrounded by sage and piñons, gives it so much spirit. My wife and I were not only able to live out a dream of having our wedding in Northern NM at the Stakeout, but we also got to share the Mountain Views with our friends from around the world. It almost goes without saying, they, along with us, will always have a special spot in their hearts for the Stakeout. As a native New Mexican, have your wedding, event, or off-the-beaten-path moment at the Stakeout and have your soul touched by a just as enchanting staff… You won’t regret it.
