Preview by from our destination wedding this past weekend with Liz + Jay in Skaneateles (one of the Finger Lakes).
This was incredibly special. The couple, their families, and most guests traveled from North Carolina for their wedding week in this picturesque region of upstate New York. From dinner at Sherwood Inn to a cocktail cruise on the lake, a Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party at Skaneateles Country Club, the Wedding Day itself, and farewell brunch - every event was not only beautiful but so full of extraordinary, connective in between moments.
The Wedding Day was hosted on a lakeside private estate that Liz’s family had put incredibly thought and care into readying for the event. As far as building events from the ground up goes - this might be our winner so far. The landscaping and renovations involved in the lead up were not for the faint of heart. We must have held our breaths for the whole 12 months after our first site visit, as the family sent updates on the ceremony lawn grading, grand staircase progress, wing additions to the home, and general state of the grass. We witnessed sod literally rolled out by landscapers on bare patches of dirt just days before the wedding. (SPOILER ALERT: the grass looked great. No one could tell.)
In addition, our florist grew many of the florals on her farm, so our design process with Liz + Jay began earlier than normal, to allow flowers to be planted and harvested in time.
More to come… but thank you to our Queen Liz, her charming Jay, and their families for having us. This journey with you all has been a true privilege and honor.
