WEDDING AT ELMROCK INN

A Charming and Intimate Wedding at the Elmrock Inn

Elmrock Inn, nestled in the heart of Stone Ridge, New York, provided the perfect setting for a beautiful and intimate wedding. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the woods and the inn’s Victorian charm, this couple exchanged vows in a quiet yet romantic ceremony. The stunning venue, with its serene environment, offered a warm and welcoming atmosphere for this special day.

A Day of Simple Elegance

This couple, known for their sweet and quiet nature, celebrated their love in the company of close friends and family, many of whom traveled from New York City to join in the festivities. The intimate size of the wedding allowed for a deeply personal and emotional experience, where the focus was entirely on the love and connection between the bride and groom.

The simplicity of the day enhanced its beauty. The bride’s gown by Anne Barge was a testament to understated elegance, while the groom’s suit mirrored the same classic sophistication. Every detail, from the attire to the decor, was thoughtfully chosen to reflect the couple’s desire for a minimalistic yet deeply meaningful celebration.

An Unforgettable Reception

The celebration continued with a lovely reception held both inside the Elmrock Inn and on its charming slate patio. Guests were treated to a delicious meal while DJ Mav Entertainment kept the dance floor lively and fun throughout the night. The inn’s natural beauty, combined with the simplicity of the decor, created a warm and inviting atmosphere for guests to celebrate and connect.

Flowers by Jo-Ann adorned the space with beautiful floral arrangements that complemented the natural surroundings, adding a touch of elegance to the day. The understated decorations allowed the couple’s love and joy to shine, proving that sometimes less truly is more.

The Beauty of Small, Intimate Weddings

There’s something truly special about small weddings—they allow for a more personal and emotional experience, where every moment feels intentional and heartfelt. This wedding was a perfect example of how simplicity and love can create a sophisticated and meaningful event. Surrounded by their closest loved ones, the couple’s love for each other was the true focus of the day, and the sense of support and community was palpable.

The Elmrock Inn: A Perfect Venue for Intimate Celebrations

The Elmrock Inn proved to be an exceptional venue for this intimate wedding. Its historic Victorian architecture and natural surroundings provided a stunning backdrop for the couple’s celebration. The inn’s blend of rustic charm and elegant style made it a perfect location for couples seeking a quiet and romantic setting in the Hudson Valley.
