Tom Sparks & Kelly Kanz - December 28, 2007

Published on December 29, 2007

Weddings surrounding Christmas are always a bit more special. You’ve got the excitement of a wedding added together with the festivity of the Christmas season. It all adds up to a very incredible experience.
I had just an experience this past Friday as I had the honor of presiding over the wedding reception of Tom [...]


Kirt Kraeuter & Jennifer Page - October 20, 2007

Published on October 23, 2007

A couple of weeks ago I was lamenting the fact that the leaves were kind of bland this year. The lack of rain had left most of the trees just kind of brown with not that much color. Well all that changed last week. I’m not sure if it was the rain we’ve gotten lately [...]


Andy Lapsa & Katie Nicklas - October 6, 2007

Published on October 7, 2007

The Autumn of 2007 has been quite wonderful compared to some others. The weather has remained, up to this point, quite summer-like with warm temperatures and little rain (more about that in a minute). One thing I noticed though was the more muted colors of the leaves this year. I’ve heard that dry weather can [...]

Love this couple! My wife Linda and I met Andrew and Cindy at Six Mile Creek Vineyard earlier in the summer. We needed to have a wedding reception planning meeting and Six Mile Creek was a good central location for us to meet. Well, a couple hours and a few glasses of wine later, we [...]

The Benn Conger Inn, Groton, NY, was the site of the wedding reception for Matt and Kristen. The Inn is a beautifully restored mansion which provided the perfect setting for this wonderful couple to have their wedding reception.
The day was one of the first Saturday’s this wedding season that looked like rain might make an [...]


Ames Conant & Ashley McMillan - July 7, 2007

Published on July 9, 2007

Today was that day that everyone has been talking about for a couple years. July, 7, 2007… you know… 07-07-07. If seven is your lucky number, then today was your lucky day. Today was supposed to be one of the busiest wedding days ever because of the “importance” of the numbers.
Well, I don’t know about [...]

It seems that the summer of 2007 can do no wrong as far as the weather goes. It’s just been one spectacular weekend of weather after another. David and Katharine were blessed not only with a beautiful location for their wedding and ceremony but incredible weather as well.
The Fontainebleau Inn was where David and Katharine [...]

It was another day of spectacular weather in Upstate New York for the wedding of Terrence Corrigan and Kathryn Kranz. The ceremony and reception took place at one of my favorite venues, Six Mile Creek Vineyard in Ithaca, NY.
I have a soft spot in my heart for Six Mile Creek Vineyard primarily because it is [...]

The Country Club of Ithaca was the setting for the wedding reception of Brian Murray and Megan McKeown. The weather was warm and there seemed to be the threat of rain or thunderstorm, but it never happened which is always a blessing.
Megan and Brian were just beaming. They were surrounded by a loving group of [...]
