>> HEAD OFF THE BEATEN PATH FOR A GLAMPING RETREAT REPLETE WITH COUNTRY DELIGHTS AT GILBERTSVILLE FARMHOUSE. RUSTIC GLAMOUR: Rough-hewn romance abounds at the Gilbertsville Farmhouse. Nestled on 125 acres in the heart of the Butternut Valley, this formerly functioning dairy farm channels the spirit of the locale’s rich agricultural history with restored timber-beam structures and pastures as far as the eye can see. Inviting you to enjoy a one-of-a-kind nuptial experience, this setting celebrates the marriage of pastoral charm and fresh air fun.

*

Welcome your friends and family to witness your union in the great outdoors. Tie the knot atop a grassy hill as loved ones look on from antique church pews, or exchange vows in one of the secluded forest alcoves. After the “I do’s,” onsite entertainment will keep guests’ interests piqued all weekend long. Go for a dip in the pristine swimming pond, play a round of volleyball, or host an outdoor movie night. The property is a short trip from local attractions–such as Gilbert Lake State Park and Ommegang Brewery–for those itching to explore.

haute HOMESTEAD

situated at the foothills of the catskill mountains, this central new york escape is a hidden treasure where adventures of love await—you’ll fall head over heels for the breathtaking scenery & delight in the secluded setting.

RECEPTION OPTIONS: Channel nostalgic nights beneath the stars with a camp-style soiree infused with a hint of upscale elegance. Invite guests to enjoy games on the lawn, sip cocktails in the milking-parlor-turned-lounge, then proceed to the Reception Barn to kick off the festivities. Accommodating up to 170, this space is the epitome of country chic. After dinner, a stone patio and roaring bonfire pit encourage partygoers to gather ‘round and toast—or roast!—to love all night long.

ACCOMMODATIONS: Rough it without abandoning the modern comforts of home. Outfitted with contemporary amenities and French countryside decor, the charmingly restored farmhouse is perfect for an extended getaway. Four well-appointed bedrooms allow space for up to 15 of your nearest and dearest to stay and play. Outdoorsy guests will love “glamping it up” for the night in one of the property’s new luxury tents. Au naturel never felt so cozy with king-sized beds and cabin-chic touches.

*tie the knot at the gilbertsville farmhouse, where provincial beauty meets rugged spirit.

>> A PRO BEHIND THE LENS, JOE GRANT CAPTURES LOVE STORIES WITH ONE—OF—A—KIND STYLE & DETAILED PRECISION. ADVICE: “establishing a day-of photography schedule is essen-

tial. jot down a list of ‘must capture’ moments, such as first look, family sessions or after-party portraits. hand off this timeline to your coordinator or

a member of the bridal party to keep an eye on the clock throughout the festivities. this will limit stress & guarantee that not a single photo-op is missed.”

HOW IT ALL BEGAN: When Joe first picked up a camera he had no idea a personal hobby would blossom into a career. Weekends spent snapping shots of his children and the surrounding landscape developed his aesthetic and technical skills. It wasn’t until his own wedding in 2011 that he discovered the perfect arena for his talents to flourish. Connecting with the emotional nature and artistic qualities of the industry, Joe opened his own studio and never looked back.

NAME: joe grant BUSINESS: joe grant photography SERVICES: photography YEARS IN BUSINESS: four WEBSITE: joegrantphotography.com

THE LATEST: Today, Joe’s seasoned expertise results in inspired images that reflect the true essence of each celebration. Dedicated to creating a personalized experience, he guides couples through the process from start to finish to ensure every client receives impeccable service and treasured keepsakes. What lies ahead? Expansion is on the horizon for this shutterbug. “I look forward to adding associate talent to my team so that we are able to increase our package offerings,” Joe says. “We're aiming to incorporate videography options as well.”

POST

shares her golden wedding-worthy secrets for every element of your day.

treat your travelers

be mindful

WELCOME WAGON:

GUYS & GALS:

Don’t forget to make special arrangements for out-of-town guests. When it comes to making loved ones feel welcome, size and expense do not matter. From budget-friendly goodie bags to an all-out wedding eve bash, it’s the spirit of inclusiveness and thoughtfulness that counts. Never lose sight of what’s really important by remembering that the presence of those you hold dear is, ultimately, the best present they can give.

Respect your attendants’ time and resources.

They will do their utmost to help you carry out your wedding plans, but that doesn’t mean they need to cater to your every whim. Be clear about your expectations and if you have particular assignments in mind. Set up “communication central” and be sure all parties can access it. While keeping everyone in the loop is critical, bombarding them with daily posts is excessive.

keep cool

social standards

FAMILY TIES:

#SPREADTHELOVE:

Work together to ensure that your in-laws feel comfortable and included. Whether you have married, single, or divorced parents, tact and diplomacy skills can be put to the test. The key is to plan and relay day-of details ahead of time–there should be no surprises on the big day. Arrange where the respective parents will be seated and brainstorm meaningful, unique ways to incorporate all into the celebration.

Social media is a great way to share memories and include long distance loved ones, but if you don’t want to see a sea of smartphones when you walk down the aisle, you’ll have to take action. Keep guests in the moment by establishing some guidelines. Post these on your wedding website, print it in your ceremony program, and ask your wedding party to help spread the word.

take a breather

trust your team

STEP BACK:

VENDOR LOVE:

You’ll need a break from all things “wedding.”

A call, a chance to have dinner with your friends, or date night with each other without mentioning the “W” word is a good way to stay in touch with other parts of your lives. Whether it be a mani-pedi with your mom, or a football game with your dad, carving out time to spend together before the “I do’s” is essential. Declare some nights “wedding free” in advance so you can just kick back and relax.

Be considerate of your vendors, they aren’t mind readers. Be sure to communicate your wedding vision clearly–think photos, Pinterest boards, color swatches, or samples of things you like–so they can get an accurate sense of your style and bring your vision to life. Then, vow not to micromanage: you’ve hired professionals, so let them do what they do best.

live in the moment ! whatever surprises the day brings, just look at each other + laugh it away. if you’re smiling + happy, your guests will be too !
