As a Lake George native, I am always beyond excited when I get the opportunity to photograph a wedding in my hometown — especially at a venue as stunning as the Inn at Erlowest. This beautiful venue, just five minutes from where I grew up, holds a special place in my heart, and it was the perfect setting for Neha and Dan’s incredible two-day wedding celebration. Being a part of their wedding at one of the best wedding venues in Lake George was a true honor!
A Vibrant Celebration at the Rehearsal Dinner
Neha and Dan’s wedding weekend kicked off with a vibrant rehearsal dinner at the Fort William Henry Hotel that was a true fusion of cultures. The couple’s Indian/Jewish background brought together a beautiful mix of traditions, and guests embraced the festive atmosphere by donning colorful Indian attire. It was a lively evening full of choreographed dances, intricate henna art, and heartfelt speeches. The energy was infectious, with everyone dancing and celebrating the couple’s love and heritage.
This festive night set the tone for the wedding weekend, and I knew that the Inn at Erlowest was about to be the backdrop for a celebration unlike any other.
The First Look at the Inn at Erlowest
The official wedding day began the next morning, with the gorgeous Inn at Erlowest overlooking the picturesque shores of Lake George. The venue’s stunning views and historic charm made it the perfect location for this unforgettable celebration. Neha and Dan shared an emotional and sweet first look, capturing their excitement and love against the backdrop of one of the most beautiful upstate NY wedding locations. The photos taken around the property — with the lake sparkling in the background — were absolutely breathtaking.
Dressed in their traditional Indian wedding attire, the couple took stunning portraits before making their way to their first wedding ceremony.
A Joyful Procession and Traditional Indian Ceremony
One of the most memorable moments of the day was the lively procession as Neha and Dan made their way to the first ceremony. The sounds of live music and vibrant drumming filled the air as their guests danced and cheered them on, creating an atmosphere of joy and celebration. The Inn at Erlowest’s stunning North Point provided the perfect backdrop for their traditional Indian ceremony, which was filled with rich cultural rituals and meaningful moments.
The love between Neha and Dan was palpable as they exchanged vows, surrounded by their closest family and friends. After the ceremony, the couple changed into their second outfits of the day, ready for the American-style ceremony that would follow.

The second ceremony also took place on the Inn at Erlowest’s North Point, offering sweeping views of Lake George and setting the stage for another meaningful moment in their wedding day. With heartfelt “I do’s” and plenty of smiles, Neha and Dan officially became husband and wife.
As the reception began, guests immediately got into the celebratory spirit.
