New York Farm Weddings

       Upstate New York offers many possibilities for a rustic farm wedding, and I've had the opportunity to perform ceremonies at several of these. Pat and Julie had a wonderful harvest-theme wedding at Maple Shade Farm in Delhi. They took their vows in front of a field of ripe corn, which I said "symbolizes the strength and abundance of the relationship they have been nurturing together, and the love that provides nourishment for their souls." Afterward their guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the barn, and dinner under a tent. 
      


       North of Albany is Liberty Ridge Farm where Nikki and Brian's guests sat on hay stacks for the ceremony and later toasted the bride and groom in the charming Gifford Barn.  




       Down in the Hudson Valley I performed Dustin and Sherry's wedding in front of this magnificent tree at Liberty View Farm where the main crop is apples. What fun it is to see all of these beautiful rustic wedding venues as I travel around the state to conduct personalized ceremonies for my wonderful couples!
