Dave and Mike’s Sagamore Resort wedding was one for the books! Their celebration at The Sagamore Hotel on Lake George was a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. From the gorgeous lake views to the stunning fall colors, this unique wedding venue truly set the stage for a memorable celebration.
Getting Ready
The day began in one of the Sagamore’s elegant rooms, where the grooms got dressed together, sharing laughs with the sounds of Taylor Swift in the background. The beautiful setting made the getting-ready experience feel even more special – one of the reasons the Sagamore is one of the top wedding venues in Lake George and New York State.
Photos Around The Property
After getting ready, Dave and Mike took full advantage of the Sagamore’s picturesque grounds, capturing stunning photos as they strolled around the property. With the warm fall day and stunning views of Lake George, every moment felt like a scene from a fairy tale. Their wedding party joined them for photos on the lush lawn, sporting rainbow shoes, ties, and hair to celebrate the couple’s unique style and love.
Ceremony on the Lower Terrace
The ceremony took place on the lower terrace of the Sagamore Resort, with the breathtaking beauty of the lake providing a picture-perfect backdrop. Officiated by Maria Pelton, the ceremony was filled with laughter and heartfelt moments as Dave and Mike exchanged their vows — with Taylor Swift making an appearance in BOTH vows! Their emotional first kiss as a married couple was met with cheers, and the newlyweds were sent off to the sounds of bagpipes as they made their way to the cocktail hour.
Reception and Surprises
Guests entered the reception to an incredible ballroom setup, with floral arrangements by Renaissance Floral Design setting the stage for an elegant celebration. Mike and Dave kicked off the evening with a lively dance set, followed by touching speeches from two of their best friends. A surprise bagpipe performance by the City of Albany Pipe Band added a unique touch, delighting guests as they enjoyed dinner and conversation.
Then it was time to party! Tunes by Craig Scott Entertainment kept everyone on the dance floor, and the grooms danced the night away, rocking the floor with endless energy. The couple paused only for two things — to cut their impressive wedding cake and to share a fun treat from their popcorn snack bar!
A Grand Finale
The night ended with a spectacular fireworks show over Lake George, courtesy of Santore Fireworks. Guests gathered on the lawn to watch as the sky lit up with brilliant colors — a perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable celebration at this unique wedding venue.
Congratulations to the newlyweds, Dave and Mike! Your Sagamore Resort wedding was a stunning celebration of love, joy, and the start of a beautiful journey together.
