When I asked my photographer if there was anything I should know about working with Mountain Top Resort, she said, “Oh, you’ve struck gold with them.” At the time, I thought it was just vendors being kind to one another. Now, I know that we really did strike gold. From start to finish, Mountain Top Resort wanted to accommodate us. Before touring, I asked if their catering team would be open to an all-vegetarian wedding. They confirmed that it wouldn’t be a problem and even welcomed us to add additional meal options to their list so that we could incorporate our favorite meals into our day. The team was excited to take on a new task to help make the event feel like us. Leading up to the big day, email correspondence was quick and helpful. We asked a ton of questions, and we were never made to feel like a burden. In the 2 weeks leading up to our wedding, our coordinator Zoey let us know that our day-of coordinator would be Elizabeth. We were both a little nervous to switch from one coordinator to another, but it’s clear the team is just that: a team. Elizabeth picked up all the details and connected with us to make sure she had our vision clear in her mind. Right from the start of the ceremony rehearsal, it was clear she’d studied our choices! She cared about the details, and made sure our day was full of fun, joy, and support. When we forgot to bring our printed thank-you speech to reception, she said, “No problem, email it to me and I’ll print it right now.” When we weren’t able to finish our dinners, she packaged them up and sent them along to the house we were staying at. Elizabeth supported us without ever being overbearing. We both knew that the whole day was handled without us needing to worry about a thing, so we could focus on each other and our guests. We are so grateful we got to have you coordinate our wedding! Thank you, Elizabeth! Photo credits: Idena Beach (@idenabeachphotography) & Gabby Coughenour (@winding.roads.photography)

We can’t say enough about Helen and the team at Brookledge! It was the most beautiful day surrounded by our loved ones. All of our worries faded away, as we knew we could confidently count on everyone at Brookledge to fill in all of the gaps of a typical wedding day so we wouldn’t have to. Helen was incredible at thinking of all of the major and minor details on our special day— we didn’t even have to lift a finger! On top of the incredible attention to detail of the team, the venue itself is so serene and peaceful. It’s almost impossible to feel stressed— even though it’s one of the biggest days of one’s life! You’ll find that you’re getting a taste of the Adirondacks just minutes away from the bustling city of Saratoga. There’s truly no other place we would’ve wanted to get married! P.S.— don’t skip out on the canoe photos on the pond! :)

Forest Lake Camp was an incredible venue for our wedding weekend. The team was very responsive and got back to us quickly with every question we had. The views were absolutely stunning, and we were thrilled to have the entire camp space for the whole weekend. Matt and Dwight were beyond helpful with set up during the BBQ, ceremony, and reception, and the entire staff was extremely helpful with the set up and take down. It was amazing to hear about all the adventures our guests took over the weekend and how much fun they had exploring the camp. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to work with for our special day.

My fiancé and I are getting married at Marshall Mountain Resort on 09/19/26. Our story with MMR started when the original venue we had booked unexpectedly fell through. I attended a family member’s wedding at this venue 10 years ago when it was still branded as MKJ Farms. Having knowledge of the venue, and with my dream and desire to get married at a rustic barn venue, I reached out to Stephanie inquiring about availability and she has been nothing short of amazing during this entire process so far. She has promptly answered every text/phone call. She fit us in for a tour right away. It’s plain to see that she has her whole heart into what she does. The entire property is impeccable. The venue was beautiful 10 years ago, but we are very excited to experience all of the updates. We are thrilled that we get to celebrate our special day at MMR!
