Weddings in upstate NY always have the chance for rain, but if you are getting married in the Adirondacks it is just something to be embraced. Weddings with a little bit of rain are always some of my favorites and Helen and Lee embraced it. The photos at the canoe club were some of my favorites of the day. With the soft light, calm waters and beautiful pastel colors it looks like something out of a dream.
It is always nice when the bride and groom get ready in the same location because I can easily go between the rooms to capture their getting ready photos. The suites at the whiteface lodge always have plenty of room and it is just the perfect atmosphere to start off your wedding day.
The Ceremony
Upstate NY has so many gorgeous wedding venues but the Kanu room at the Whiteface Lodge is stunning. With tall vaulted ceilings, floor to ceiling windows overlooking the mountains and fireplaces on both sides of the room for the perfect romantic setting to say your vows.
Lake Placid Flower and Gift always provide beautiful florals and the tall arched flowers were among some of my favorite designs. After the ceremony, they were then moved into the reception space for decorations!
The Reception
Having your reception and ceremony at one venue always makes the day a little less stressful for everyone. It eliminates the driving, shuttling guests, you spend more time enjoying yourself at your reception because that 30-45 minutes spent in the car isn’t a part of the timeline, it’s a win-win! There are so many great venues in upstate NY like the Whiteface Lodge, Lake Placid Lodge, Saranac Hotel and Whiteface Club and Resort that can host everything in one location and have accommodations for your guests!
