The Sablewood Wedding

Alyssa & Ian // Schoharie, NY

Alyssa and Ian were married at the exquisite 1880s venue, The Sablewood, in the northern Catskill Mountains in Schoharie, NY near Albany. The Sablewood is nestled in the picturesque Schoharie Valley surrounded by gorgeous mountain views. Despite everything that’s gone on this year, love has continued to win. For Alyssa and Ian, that meant changing up their wedding plans and instead, having a small, intimate ceremony with 50 of their closest family and friends. It turned out to be a perfect September wedding.

These two selected a classic palette of beautiful purple, blue, and wildflowers. Alyssa and Ian both got ready in the stunning getting ready locations that Sablewood offers. The groom’s suite has whitewashed wood panels with masculine leather chairs. Inside the bridal suite, includes a wall of windows, makeup chairs, and elegant furniture perfect for bridal portraits. These two shared the sweetest first look at the top of the Sablewood hill, which features a picturesque tree and pond. Alyssa & Ian’s ceremony might have been one of my favorite parts of the day. After their emotional ceremony, the newlyweds and their guests enjoyed the beautiful outdoor cocktail hour. We quickly went back up the hill to capture epic sunset portraits before celebrating the night away with their loved ones.

Congratulations again, Alyssa & Ian! Your wedding day was so special, and I feel so honored I could be there with you!
Please note, health and safety protocols were followed by all attending and involved in this event.
