Our wedding will take place on Saturday June 22nd, 2024 at Crested Hen Farms in High Falls, NY.

The venue is a small working farm located at the base of the Mohonk Mountain and nestled in the banks of the Rondout Creek in the heart of New York’s Hudson Valley.

We are looking forward to celebrating in the rustic elegance of a restored 1830’s era barn, alongside the several crested hens that live on the farmland and give it it’s name.

The ceremony will begin at 5:30pm. We ask that guests arrive at 5 pm to allow everyone time to settle in.

Following a cocktail hour, dinner and dancing, the reception will ultimately conclude at 11pm, and all guests must be off the property by midnight.

All are invited across the street to an after-party following the reception.
