Rachel and Matt had a beautiful wedding day with a bluebird sky and warm sunshine at a venue overlooking a picturesque lake. Both bride and groom got ready at the Crooked Lake House before having a picturesque first look by the lake. They had every detail thoughtfully planned from Rachel’s something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue, to a beautifully planned ceremony, to a crowd-pleasing choreographed first dance. At their cozy ceremony in front of a fireplace, they exchanged personal vows leaving no guest with dry eyes.

Bryanna and John’s were blessed with sunshine, blue skies and bright fall foliage for their big day. Everything was beautifully planned and no detail was overlooked; everyone had Bryanna’s teaching experience to thank for that. The two got ready at the Saratoga Hilton and were chauffeured by yellow school bus to have their first look and exchanging of vows at Congress Park. After pictures, they headed back for their ceremony, officiated by Bryanna’s Uncle Frank, who brought guests to laughter and tears.

The two had a sweet first look with each other as well as their fur babies, Tiny and Finney. We headed to the Hall of Springs for some photos in the iconic arches. They had a beautiful ceremony where they exchanged personal vows over their dogs’ cries of joy.

Sarah and Jordan knocked it out of the park for their wedding day. The two had a sweet first look and bridal party shots under the bluest of skies and warmest of October days. Their ceremony overlooked Lake George as they exchanged vows in front of friends and family from near and far. Sarah even had a surprise guest, a dutiful bridesmaid that flew across the country with a two week old baby, just to witness this special day.

Emily and Kyle hit the jackpot on weather for their summer-like fall wedding. The sun was shining, flowers were blooming, and trees were beginning to wear their fall colors. The two both got ready with their bridal party at the Mansion of Saratoga which is a beautiful property. A fun fact we learned is that the mansion was the home of the “paper bag king” George West, who invented the foldable paper bag.

Amy and Steve had all the ingredients for a perfect wedding: perfect weather, an amazing location with gorgeous backdrops, friends doing the cooking and preparing the stunning flowers, and family and friends to celebrate with. After a first look and some photos, they had one of the sweetest ceremonies I have seen giving thanks to each other and all of their family and friends (including some over Zoom). Then the celebration began with an amazing meal cooked by a friend to Steve’s coworkers performing live.

Nicole and John’s wedding day was full of joy from start to finish from getting ready at the Desmond, to their beautiful church ceremony, to a fun stop for bridal party photos at The Crossings. The two surprised us being the first couple to ever switch roles on us and borrow our cameras for a mini shoot of their own (see pics below). At the reception, the dance floor was hopping and the joy was contagious.

Karlie and David had fun getting ready with their bridal party at their separate locations. Achilles, and honorary groomsman, even got in for some photos. The two braved a deluge of “lucky” rain during their outdoor ceremony and exchanged vows. Then, as if on cue, the blue skies surfaced again for the sun to bless the newlyweds. We took some photos by the river and even popped by The Ruck in Troy, where the two had their first date.

Kathleen and Dan got their lucky wedding day rain out of the way early yesterday to make way for some sunny pictures. After they had a sweet first touch before the ceremony, the two prepared for a touching ceremony in front of the beautiful Old Daley Inn fireplace surrounded by friends and family. They also honored those who were there in spirit including both Kathleen and Dan’s fathers. After sealing their vows with a kiss, the two enjoyed their signature cocktails and before officially being announced to their reception as husband and wife.

When we met with Sarah and Mike a couple weeks ago we all collectively crossed our fingers and toes in hopes of a beautiful weather day for our last wedding of the season. When we arrived at Owl’s Hoot Barn, we were met by a beautiful blue sky, sunny day. They had an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Despite the chill in the air, there was a whole lot of warmth from family and friends as they celebrated this amazing couple tying the knot (as well as some outdoor heaters ;).

Kelsey and Chris had a beautiful day for a wedding at the Venue as the predicted rain stayed away. The two had fun getting ready with their bridal party in the bridal suite and on site “man cave” that included the largest foosball table we’ve ever seen. The first look was one of my favorites as it included a high five, handshake, and first wedding day kiss. The two were all smiles for their ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.

Hunter and Miles are such a unique and fun-loving couple and their wedding day certainly exemplified that. These two knocked it out of the park when it came to making the day what they wanted it to be. A Pikachu stuffy bridal pair gift, a first look on a dock, a horse drawn carriage, a photo shoot on a carousel, and a killer omelet bar are just a few details to paint this picture.

The skies cleared up for Ashley and Brandon’s wedding, making it a beautiful day both outside and in. Everything about this wedding shouted fall beauty from the hints of changing leaves on the trees, to the bridesmaids’ gem-toned dresses, to the gorgeous arrangement of flowers. We were so happy to see that the two had an adventurous bridal party that followed us all around Revolution Hall to get some great shots.

Ashley and Bill had a wonderful wedding day filled with elegant flowers, soft dog kisses, raining bubble blasts, joyful tears, belly laughs, and killer dance moves. They had their first look in front of the river, and you would have thought they were royalty by the amount they were cheered on by passers by. We were able to get pictures in some fun spots around Revolution Hall including some unfinished spaces upstairs and the Malt Room below.

Alicia and Shaun had a wedding day as fun and warm as they are. The two (well… three, including their daughter, Ashlyn), had their first look in their beautiful backyard, which happened to be a great place to also park a firetruck for some great family shots. We were soon off to the Mansion at Cedar Hill for their ceremony where the two shared vows of commitment, while Ashlyn, commitment-personified, frolicked around in the background.

Sara and Dan may have picked the most beautiful day of the summer to celebrate their marriage. We walked around downtown Troy for photos then joined their family and friends at the Franklin Plaza. Having already gotten married on the beach earlier this summer, these two said they really just wanted a party, and that’s exactly what their rooftop reception was with delicious food, great music, and sunset views enjoyed by family and friends.

If rain is indeed a sign of good luck on a wedding day, Elissa and David may be the luckiest couple we have ever had the pleasure to work with. The two had their first look on a dock on scenic Lake George just as a monsoon came rolling over the lake. These storm chasers then braved the elements for some quick photos before fleeing for dry land. They had a ceremony under a tent with close friends and family, exchanging their vows with a curtain of rain as a backdrop.

Ali and Max were surrounded by loving family and friends as they tied the knot at Revolution Hall on Saturday. They had a large bridal party that were good sports about getting nice and close for photos on such a sweltering day. Ali looked like a Disney princess, and Max, was suited up as her Prince Charming. Rev Hall was the perfect venue for these two as it harkened back to the early days of their romance when Ali tended bar at Max’s local watering hole.

Emily and Brandon’s wedding day was magical. The smoke from the forest fires were quelled, the rainstorms passed, and the cottonwood trees filled the sky, making their wedding look like it took place in their own personal snow globe. The magic didn’t end there… vows exchanged about a magical love that grew from past lives, a first dance where Emily flew through the air, and a magical DJ that helped us take pictures of Emily and Brandon with every table in less time than it takes to be Rick rolled.

Everything about Lauren and Tom’s wedding was beautiful- the flowers, the dress, the scenery, the weather, and most of all the couple. Their beautiful cat, Belly, also added to the beauty of the day just by her mere presence. From the time we did their first look until we left them on the dance floor at the end of the night, these two exuded love towards each other and their guests.
