On a day in mid-June, over 250 of the couple’s closest family and friends gathered to celebrate their love at Blue Hill at Stone Barns. They danced under the stars all night long. Located at the famous farm in Tarrytown, Blue Hill at Stone Barns is the Michelin-starred original farm-to-table restaurant. Located in an elegant converted barn, the restaurant and event space is on gorgeous grounds.

There were a number of unique details at the wedding, including a two-part gown created by Sachin + Babi – one of the final dresses from their bridal line. Katie Fischer Design designed the stunning invitations and all calligraphy done by Becky Larimer, one of the White House calligraphers. Escort cards were handmade feather paper and hand calligraphed by the bride’s father.

Photography Tips for Weddings at Blue Hill Stone Barns

how to find your dream wedding photographer

Blue Hill at Stone Barns is one of the most visually breathtaking venues in the region — from the stone architecture and lush gardens to the open fields and warm, natural light. To truly capture the magic of your wedding day here, a few thoughtful tips can make a big difference.

First, plan your timeline with lighting in mind. The late afternoon and golden hour offer the most flattering light for portraits, especially around the open grounds and barn area. The light can be very harsh in the mid-afternoon, so be sure to schedule time during cocktail hour to pop out! 

Don’t forget the in-between moments: the quiet pause before walking down the aisle, a glance across the dinner table, the way the light hits your veil just right. These are the emotional, storytelling images that make your gallery come to life.

Lastly, trust your photographer. The best images often come when you're present in the moment — not performing for the camera. Relax, laugh, cry, dance... and let your photographer do what they do best: capture the real, beautiful story as it unfolds.
