Danielle and Blake’s love story began during their freshman year at Cornell University, where they first met while attending school together. Years later, they returned to Ithaca to celebrate their wedding day in a place that holds so much meaning for them.
Their wedding took place at New Park Event Venue in Ithaca, NY, with a beautiful ceremony set in the forest and surrounded by vibrant autumn leaves. The natural setting created a warm, intimate atmosphere that felt perfectly suited to the season and to Danielle and Blake’s connection.
Instead of a traditional first look, Danielle and Blake chose to see each other for the first time as Danielle walked down the aisle. It was an incredibly emotional moment and one that made their ceremony feel even more special and intentional.
The celebration continued with an evening full of dancing, great food, and thoughtful personal touches—including a unique guest book where guests drew pictures of themselves, creating a keepsake that reflected the creativity and fun of the day.
Danielle and Blake’s New Park Event Venue wedding was a joyful, heartfelt celebration in the heart of Ithaca, and it was an honor to capture such a meaningful day. Check out another beautiful wedding at New Park!
