More reverie followed at The Brae Loch Inn after that. The following day a softball game was held at Lakeside Park, a great way to start off a wedding morning! With each event, guests got to experience more of the town of Cazenovia.

SUMMER CAMP WEDDING RECEPTION IN UPSTATE NEW YORK

Jordan and Brian outfitted the barn to become a true slice of summer camp. Custom Oxford Pennants hung in the entryway, colorful bunting was added around the room, and our favorite farm tables rounded out the design. The reception tables featured vintage china and mixed colorful napkins. Guests took home a custom enamel mug with the wedding emblem as a moment of the unforgettable weekend. A small C-store was created with nostalgic candies and toys filling vintage candy and apothecary jars. And of course, the firepit was roaring on the blue-stone patio with cozy wool blankets nearby to keep guests cozy throughout the evening. They transformed the Red Barn for the day into a true Summer Camp Experience!
