A Picture-Perfect Day: Cathy and Michael's Wedding at Montage Mountain
Hello everyone, Kevin here! As the assistant photographer at Vive Studio, I had the pleasure of joining Amie Burns, our talented lead photographer, to document Cathy and Michael's stunning wedding day at Montage Mountain. This picturesque NEPA wedding perfectly showcased the versatility of hosting both the ceremony and reception in one breathtaking location.
A Scenic Ceremony
Cathy and Michael chose an outdoor ceremony overlooking the majestic mountains and the Scranton/Lackawanna County valley. The views were absolutely unforgettable, providing a picturesque backdrop for their vows. With clear skies and a serene setting, the beauty of nature complemented their classic wedding style perfectly. If you're searching for a Scranton wedding photographer to capture such moments, Montage Mountain is an ideal setting.
Unique Pre-Wedding Moments
One of the highlights of the day was the adventure-filled photo session before the ceremony. The wedding party traveled on ATV 4x4 vehicles to scenic locations around Montage Mountain for some incredible shots. This unique touch added a fun and adventurous vibe to the day, setting the tone for the celebrations to come. NEPA wedding photography often thrives on these distinctive, scenic opportunities.
Elegant Details and Personal Touches
The couple’s classic style was evident in every detail, from their timeless attire to the thoughtful dedication table honoring family members who had passed. Inside the reception space, an ivy wall adorned with their name in neon lights added a modern flair, creating a stunning focal point for photos. Guests also enjoyed a photo booth, capturing fun memories to take home. These thoughtful details highlighted Cathy and Michael's personal touch and added to the charm of this NEPA wedding.
A Fun-Filled Reception
The reception took place in Montage Mountain’s cozy indoor space, complete with a large fireplace and bar. Guests began the evening with drinks under the outdoor tent and gathered around the wraparound porch’s fire pit as the night progressed. While the day’s formalities were kept simple, the energy on the dance floor—especially from the kids—was infectious and brought so much joy to the evening. For those considering Scranton wedding venues, Montage Mountain’s versatility ensures a memorable celebration.
Sharing the Magic
Cathy and Michael’s wedding was a perfect example of how versatile and memorable a non-traditional wedding can be. By hosting both the ceremony and reception at the same venue, they created a seamless and relaxed celebration that allowed their love and the beauty of the location to shine.
To all the friends and family who attended, we hope this blog brings back the joy and excitement of their special day. And to anyone planning their wedding in the Scranton or NEPA area, Montage Mountain offers endless possibilities for a truly unforgettable experience.
