A Summer’s Eve Wedding at Mohonk Mountain House

When I first met Dara and Will, they drove up from the city during the 1st of two whopping snow storms to try and meet me.  Trees had come down across my driveway and the plows couldn’t get through plus I had no electricity, heat or running water in my home studio.  I met them in the Highland Diner in jeans and bundled up sweaters – not looking too great considering I couldn’t shower for two days.  I LOVE Dara and Will so much because they booked me as their wedding photographer anyway!  Instead of being annoyed at all the inconveniences, they looked at the trip as a great adventure.  And right then I knew their wedding would be spectacular.  And it was.

A hot summer evening with cool mountain breezes, parasols for all the wedding guests, a beautifully personalized wedding ceremony in the gardens at Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz, a great three piece trio playing music throughout the night- Dara and Will had it all.
