a cozy kind of love. the kind of love that is the closest feeling to curling up by the fire you can find. a relationship that radiates warmth, comforts you on the coldest days, and holds you in a cradle in trying times. there are all types of love out in this big, beautiful world, but a fireside love… well, that's where sparks fly. dancing, crackling, blazing with bold, unfiltered joy. grab your graham and settle in by the s'mores station, we've got some serious fall wedding love to share!

looking for a relaxed wedding venue near finger lakes? crispin hill in penn yan, new york was nothing short of breathtaking for #aandbabe morgan and wes' big day. an upstate new york lake wedding with acres of grassy green grounds and gorgeous natural light. from morgan's bridal suite bathroom with a luxurious clawfoot tub and a panoramic view of the colorful treetops on keuka lake to a fun first look on a gravel footpath, nature surrounded every element of this charming fall wedding. 

their lakeside outdoor wedding ceremony took place under a rustic wooden wedding arbor decorated in flowers. with a stone walkway leading up to the hillside ceremony and tree stumps lining the aisle holding white pottery vases full of flowers, this cozy new york countryside wedding contained so many classic details. 

keeping with the simplistic and traditional fall wedding theme, morgan wore 'anastasia' by wtoo paired with sara gabriel's 'nicole veil'. this long sleeve lace wtoo wedding dress looked slightly vintage with a sophisticated scallop design and illusion details throughout. we loved the statement keyhole back on this delicate lace wedding dress and the pale ivory trim on the fingertip length tulle veil was the perfect finishing touch. 

led by her crew in wine-colored long sleeve velvet bridesmaid dresses and his groomsmen in grey suits, the wedding party made their way into the clear tented reception space. following their entrances, morgan and wes went straight into celebrating with their closest family and friends. from sipping on signature drinks to listening to toasts from their beloved guests, the evening was spent in the glow of the bistro lights that lined the tent's ceiling mixed with greenery. the couple spent the night soaking in the views from their snug sweetheart table. morgan and wes' giant farm table full of desserts was a welcome reception treat and their adult s'mores station with bourbon salted caramel and baileys fudge drizzle was a favorite fun wedding detail for sure. 

while we're a fan of all wedding seasons, morgan and wes might have managed to win our hearts when it comes to a rural october wedding with rustic details. charming, elegant, and clearly full of delectable sweets, their lakeside new york nuptials will always bring back fond memories of colorful foliage, pinecone wedding bouquets, and easy love.
