Full Moon Resort Wedding

October 31, 2014 by keithferris | 0 Comments

Joanna and Isaac’s Full Moon Resort wedding was a perfect wedding day in the Catskills. Full Moon Resort is located in Big Indian NY, deep in the heart of the Catskills. Surrounded by mountain peaks and nestled right next to the Esopus Creek, this resort offers some beautiful backdrops. It’s a great place for a Hudson Valley wedding close to NYC. The day started with a surprise appearance by a little black bear who was munching on some apples that had fallen from a tree. The uninvited guest was shooed away and didn’t make another appearance. After that bit of excitement was over, we started on the formal portraits by photographing the girls and guys separately. I could tell by everyone’s energy that it was going to be an amazing day. The threat of rain prevented them from having the ceremony in the lower grove but what they may have missed in terms of scenery they more than made up for with their heartfelt vows. The reception was a great dance party with the John Bates Band rocking the party late into the night. It was a great day and one that anyone who attended will not soon forget.

The Inn at West Settlement Wedding

The Inn at West Settlement Wedding

Amanda and Tobey are very low key. So low key in fact that they almost just wanted to elope and forgo having a big wedding. But in the end I’m sure they’re happy they didn’t elope because their wedding was an awesome celebration with their friends and family, not to mention great food and music in a bucolic setting nestled in the Catskills.

Their wedding was at The Inn at West Settlement in Roxbury, NY. I had never shot there before but it had long been on my radar as a place I would love to photograph. And it didn’t disappoint. I go to Roxbury at least once a year to go snowboarding at Plattekill Mountain, but I have never been there without lots of snow on the ground. Well let me tell you, it’s just as beautiful in the spring and summer as it is in the winter.

The Inn at West Settlement was a perfect location for their Catskills wedding because they’re both very into hiking and the outdoors. As an affirmation to their love of nature, they took most of the guests on a hike in the morning before their wedding. There was a threat of rain in the afternoon, but the weather held out for a sunny outdoor ceremony and the evening was crisp and cool. The party went on into the night with music by the Round House Rockers. During the party they also had a bonfire under the night sky. Overall it was a perfect day at The Inn at West Settlement Wedding.
