{Rustic Finger Lakes Wedding} Hannah & Matthew


Happy Wedding Wednesday!

Welcome to the conclusion of the local New Jersey & New York wedding series!  Today, we are traveling back to the Finger Lakes region of New York, specifically the Lake Skaneateles area.  Here, the scenery is beautiful, the details are charming & the party is rocking!  Silent Moment Photography shows us the beauty:  














































Hannah & Matthew got married on June 16, 2012 in Skaneateles, New York.  Their wedding was pure sweetness, full of DIY, meaningful details by the Bride.  

The Bride & Groom became husband & wife at Grace Chapel.  Upon entering the small chapel, guests were invited to participate in a ring warming ceremony to bless the wedding bands.  The Bride, stunning in a darling lace & tulle wedding gown & colorful heels, walked down the lace-lined burlap aisle runner to marry her Groom.  The happy newlyweds were led from the ceremony by a junior bridesmaid carrying a "Just Married" banner.  

The tented reception was held in an picturesque, open field on the bank of Lake Skaneatles.  The rustic dinner tables featured pretty pink flowers in Mason jars, burlap runners, flower-patterned escort cards & wooden cutlery.  The celebration included lots of dancing as the guests took their cue from the Bride twirling in her perfect party dress.  Soon, it was time to cut the wedding cake, an amazing white cake delicately decorated with mint accents.  As the guests departed, they took home their hand-packaged s'mores favors to savor later.  Such a sweet affair!  

My Favorite Moment:  The ring ceremony is absolutely heartwarming!

My Favorite Detail:  I had a really hard time deciding but, in the end, the s'mores favors stole my heart.

Congratulations, Hannah & Matthew!

  6. A ring warming - SO super sweet & I love having it before the wedding starts! Genius.

    I've been to a wedding with a ring warming once before but it happened during the ceremony (the rings were passed around) and this 1) made me nervous and 2) was a bit distracting.

    Would you share the instructions for the ringwarming that were in the frame?
