Wedding at The Ruins at Sassafras Museum, New Lebanon NY

What I loved most about Rebecca and Dan’s wedding was how clearly it was built around people, not things. With a 21-person wedding party, layers of parents, siblings, and cousins, and a guest list of almost 200, every part of the day was an overlap of hugs, inside jokes, and the kind of laughter you only hear when everyone finally ends up in the same place.

This is just a small glimpse into their wedding day. Reach out to view the full gallery.
