New York Camp Wedding: Andrea + Chuck

camp wedding

I would SO love to attend a fun camp wedding – and Andrea + Chuck’s wedding looks like so much fun! Their wedding was a big celebration of love, something relaxed that wasn’t too formal, and most of all FUN! They found the perfect location at a camp in upstate New York that they completely took over. The perfect place where all their friends + family could take a long weekend (Labor Day weekend) to relax and spend time with each other. Both Andrea + Chuck are artists (as are many of their friends) so it was the perfect weekend surrounded by their friends who helped make every element for their wedding – including the amazing bridesmaids dresses that one of Andrea’s friends dyed the most perfect colors! Big congrats to Andrea + Chuck and thanks so much to Matt with Our Labor Of Love for the gorgeous photos!

Our Favorite Memory From The Wedding

Walking through the woods and taking photos before the ceremony. Because we were so "hands on" leading up to the wedding it was the first chance we had to take a minute and be alone with each other. Matt our photographer did such an amazing job of making us feel relaxed.
