Every Lakota Oaks Wedding is a joy to see! Nestled in the serene beauty of Fairfield County, Lakota Oaks offers a picture-perfect blend of elegance and nature, one of the many reasons we love photographing weddings here. From its expansive greens to its peaceful waterfront and beautifully designed indoor spaces, the venue creates a warm, inviting atmosphere that celebrates both romance and family. It was the ideal backdrop for Margaret & Patrick’s heartfelt day.
Their celebration embraced soft lavenders, bright yellows, and whimsical touches like teapots holding florals and butterflies on the flower girl dresses. Bridesmaids glowed in varied shades of lavender and pink, creating a palette that felt tender, joyful, and deeply personal.
The ceremony took place in a stunning Catholic church, its soaring ceilings, ornate architecture, and warm light setting the tone for a reverent and emotional exchange of vows. The quiet echo of footsteps down the aisle, the soft music, and the sacred beauty of the space made every moment feel timeless.
After the ceremony, we joined the couple at Lakota Oaks and captured portraits surrounded by its natural charm: the calm water, lush greenery, and their joyful bridal party adding life and color to each frame.
The reception continued inside the venue’s ballroom, where high ceilings, elegant lighting, and spacious design created a lively, beautiful atmosphere. From the heartfelt toasts to the energetic dancing, every moment felt vibrant and full of love.
It’s easy to see why couples choose Lakota Oaks for their celebration. The property offers a rare blend of tranquility, convenience, and scenic beauty, from peaceful walking paths and sweeping lawns to luxurious indoor spaces that transition seamlessly from ceremony to reception. Whether couples envision an intimate gathering or a lively party, Lakota Oaks provides the setting, comfort, and charm to bring any wedding vision to life.

New York Wedding Photographers
As New York wedding photographers, we’re endlessly inspired by the city’s brilliance, its towering architecture, hidden gardens, historic brownstones, sun-drenched rooftops, and waterfront views that look different every single day. NYC gives couples a backdrop that feels alive, and we love photographing weddings here because no two celebrations ever look or unfold the same. Whether we’re documenting a chic Manhattan soirée, an intimate Brooklyn loft gathering, or a quiet ceremony in the park, our approach is rooted in storytelling. We look for the natural moments: the squeeze of a hand, the soft breath before “I do,” the energy of guests who traveled across boroughs or across oceans to celebrate with you.
We blend documentary honesty with a refined artistic eye, creating images that feel both stylish and emotionally true. Light, motion, architecture, and connection guide every frame. Because in a place as dynamic as New York, it’s the quiet exchanges and the big, cinematic scenes that together tell the full story. At Original Weddings, we are dedicated to preserving your day exactly as it felt: vibrant, romantic, and full of life so that decades from now, your photos still bring you right back to the heartbeat of the city where it all happened.
New York Wedding Videographers
As New York wedding videographers, we capture the movement, sound, and rhythm that make NYC weddings unforgettable. The city’s energy becomes part of the film: the skyline glowing at dusk, the hum of the streets, the warmth of your vows echoing against iconic architecture. Our style blends cinematic visuals with authentic, unscripted moments, preserving not just how your day looked but how it felt. At Original Weddings, our goal is to create a wedding film that feels timeless, emotional, and uniquely yours; a beautiful reflection of your love story set against the city that never stops moving.
