A summer day, a cotton candy machine, French Lavender 75’s, blue skies, and wedding celebration on your sister’s family property in the Champlain Valley of Upstate NY, doesn’t that just sound like a super fun and relaxed wedding celebration? Now seems to be the perfect time to share Kristin and Mike’s reception celebration in upstate New York. I know so many couples are having to change their wedding plans for this year, and I hope this post gives you some inspiration and hope, knowing that your wedding day will be wonderful no matter what.

A fall elopement at the Hotel Vermont in Burlington was the perfect wedding day for Jen and Seth. They made it completely theirs, from getting ready together, to the ceremony on the rooftop to exploring Burlington for their portraits.

What do you do when it is literally 100 degrees on your wedding day?! Roll with it, just like Sarah and George did! Did we have to make adjustments, yes! But they were so doable like only being outside midday for shorter periods and having lots of water on hand. We did family photos inside, and guests had umbrellas to keep the sun off during the ceremony. We made it work, and their day was just fantastic from start to finish! I hope you enjoy this blog post, and let’s plan your summer wedding!

Now is a great time to capture some beautiful, candid and sweet photos of your family. We might not be able to see each other right now but we can share great photos with friends and family and bring a smile to their face during this stressful time.

You and your fiance are relaxed the night before your wedding. Your family enjoys spending time with loved ones they haven’t seen in ages while enjoying the evening breeze and cocktails. You have set up lawn games and your friends are getting a little competitive with the bean toss. You both soak it all in and know that this is just the start of an amazing weekend.

I don’t know if I have ever been at a wedding that was both really really hot and also had a torrential downpour during the wedding ceremony, but Jessica and Gianno were given the gift of both. But these two and their families just took it all in stride. The rain held off in Saratoga Springs during Jessica and Gianno’s first look and some of my favorite photos are of Jessica and her Bridesmaids with on the property with clear umbrellas.

An early summer wedding at the Ausable Club in the Adirondack mountains of Upstate NY. A beautiful wedding that was full of love, courage, grace and strength.

Beautiful summer wedding on the shores of Lake George at Camp Chingachgook. The Adirondacks are the perfect location for a summer camp wedding with golden light and the perfect mix of whimsy and fun with simple elegance.

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.

When you plan your Adirondack wedding, you hope for moments like the one Lindsay and Nathan had during their first dance. It was simply beautiful with nothing but green grass under their feet and blue skies above. Lake Placid has so many hidden gems and the South Meadow Farm is one of them!
