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!

When I asked Wendy and Jim what they envisioned for their wedding day at the Whiteface Lodge, “Casual, intimate, romantic and rustic” were the words they used to describe what they dreamed of for their wedding. I hope their wedding in the heart of the Adirondacks was everything that they hoped for and so much more.

A sweet spring engagement session in the Adirondacks of upstate NY! Wendy and Jim are hosting their destination wedding at the Whiteface Lodge in June. Which made having their engagement session on the shores of Lake Placid even more special!

Katie grew up spending summers with her family on Lake Champlain. The historic wedding venue, An Affair by the Lake is right across the Champlain Bridge and sits on a hill looking out onto Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains. It is a stunning venue, perfect for their outdoor wedding celebrated with friends and family!

The process of planning your wedding day can be overwhelming, stressful, and incredibly daunting, but it can also be a time to connect with your partner, a creative outlet and a really enjoyable experience for you both! (Cake tasting anyone?!) Another way to ensure having a smoother ride leading up to and on your wedding day is by working with a professional wedding planner.
