From the moment I talked with Camera! I knew her and Ryan's day would be special! As alumni of Hobart College, their love story is deeply rooted in Geneva, NY. Thus, making it the perfect place to celebrate their next chapter. Between the beautiful back drop of Rose Hill Mansion for Camera's getting-ready photos, the heartfelt ceremony at St. Peter's Church, and their beautiful reception at Zugibe Vineyards, their day was nothing short of magical.

Getting Ready At Rose Hill Mansion


The day began at the beautiful Rose Hill Mansion, a historic gem overlooking Seneca Lake. Camera, her bridesmaids, Mom and Aunts filled the getting ready space with laughter and excitement as they prepared for the big day. Camera's dress was an absolute show stopper. Meanwhile Ryan and his groomsmen were getting ready at a different location and we met up with them at the church.


The Ceremony


Camera and Ryan exchanged vows at St. Peter's Church in Geneva, a stunning and historic venue that added an extra layer of elegance to their day! The ceremony was intimate with personal touches that reflected their journey together.


Reception at Zugibe Vineyards


After the ceremony we made our way to the Bampton house, it was a place where Camera and Ryan hung out a lot while at Hobart! They wanted some portraits done in front of the house because it is truly so special to them both. Then we made our way to Zugibe for the reception. The Skinners had decked out the venue with stunning florals from White Moss and Twigs (Ryan's Mom is the owner!) she did such a beautiful job! The collaboration of all family members made this day even more special! Ryan's Uncle played the saxophone for their first dance and opened up the dance floor as well!


A Day To Remember


Looking back, Camera and Ryan's wedding was everything they dreamed it would be: a celebration of love, family, and the place that means so much to them. Being part to of their day was an honor, and capturing their joy was a privilege I'll never forget. If you are looking to plan a wedding in Geneva, Rose Hill Mansion offers a great getting ready space and Zugibe Vineyards has a beautiful backdrop of Seneca Lake! Ready to freeze your memories? I'd love to connect and make your wedding memories last a lifetime!
