Hudson Wedding Photography at Basilica Hudson | Industrial NY Venue

Nestled along the historic Hudson River waterfront, Basilica Hudson stands as one of the region's most distinctive industrial wedding venues. This former 19th-century factory has been transformed into an atmospheric event space that combines rustic charm with industrial elegance. Recently, we had the privilege of capturing a magnificent celebration at this unique Hudson Valley location.

A Summer Celebration at Basilica Hudson

This sweet couple chose the perfect setting for their industrial-chic wedding day. Despite the summer heat, the Basilica's spacious interior provided a cool refuge with its soaring ceilings and open concept design. The venue's proximity to both the train tracks and waterfront created a quintessential Hudson Valley backdrop for their wedding photography, blending industrial heritage with natural beauty.

The celebration began as the couple prepared for their special day in contrasting yet complementary accommodations. One partner got ready at The Wick, Hudson's boutique hotel that pays homage to the area's candle-making history, while the other prepared at a charming local Airbnb. These distinct settings provided varied and interesting backgrounds for the "getting ready" photography that captures those intimate pre-ceremony moments.

Industrial-Chic Wedding Design at Basilica Hudson

The talented Amanda O'Leary of Hudson Valley Ceremonies transformed the raw industrial space into a romantic wonderland. The highlight of her design was a breathtaking floral installation that cascaded dramatically above the couple as they exchanged vows. This stunning focal point perfectly balanced the venue's industrial elements with soft, romantic touches.

As day turned to evening, the celebration moved into a magical reception space. Bear Fly Designs created an enchanting atmosphere with thousands of twinkling lights suspended from the ceiling, mimicking a starlit sky within the historic brick walls. This lighting design highlighted the venue's architectural features while casting a warm, intimate glow over the festivities.

Wedding Vendor Dream Team

The couple assembled an impressive team of Hudson Valley wedding professionals who each contributed their expertise to create a seamless celebration:

Catering: Bridge Creek Catering delighted guests with a menu featuring seasonal Hudson Valley ingredients, artfully presented to match the sophisticated yet approachable atmosphere.
Entertainment: Hank Lane provided musical accompaniment that evolved throughout the day, from an elegant ceremony soundtrack to reception music that had guests of all ages filling the dance floor.

Bridal Style at Basilica Hudson

The bride looked absolutely radiant in her stunning Eisenstein gown, which featured intricate detailing that caught the light beautifully in the venue's spacious interior. Her choice of Stuart Weitzman shoes added the perfect touch of sophistication to complete her bridal ensemble. Her partner complemented her elegance with attire that perfectly suited both the venue's industrial character and the celebration's festive atmosphere.
