You teach me daily what it means to love. You teach me daily that I’ve been loved.”

Tara and Corey, residents of the DC Metro area, hosted a destination wedding near Tara’s hometown of Pittsford, NY. The home-rooted location at the Lake House on Canandaguia was perfect to host friends and family from across the world. The couple desired for their guests to feel welcome, important, and cared for as an expression of their gratitude and friendship.

The wedding felt distinguished without being stuffy or rigid. They mixed high-end finishes with handmade artwork for an intimate and warm atmosphere. Corey’s mom painted original watercolors for their escort card designs that hung as a featured decoration for cocktail hour. We especially loved the painting of the family dog. Inside the reception space, florals hung from the ceiling and flowed down the tables. The candlelit reception was a sight to behold.

Standing out most from this day were the intimate relationships between family and friends. The large ceremony at Linehan Chapel on Nazareth College’s Campus included grandparents walking the aisle, personal vows by the couple, readings by their niece and nephew, and great joy during the newly married couple’s pronouncement and exit down the aisle. Family gathered for photos and hugs outside before adjourning to the lake house. You could feel the love.

Our evening was completed by Tara and Corey’s choreographed first dance. Thanks to Silver Arrow Band, the dance floor was packed through the night and the couple danced the night away!
