Cedar Lakes Estate sets a scene that's a lot like summer camp for stylish grown-ups. On the meandering upstate New York retreat property are a couple of lakes with a blob, kayaks and paddleboards for guests. There's a chef's garden that inspires wholesome, delicious food. There are plenty of cozy, modern cabins with the best of furnishings and amenities. There are firepits, patios and endless opportunities to just hang out among the cedar trees. And most fitting for events, there's a big, rustic barn that makes an awesome wedding venue. Today, we're sharing a wedding at the property that utilized all of its best features and brought guests together for a long weekend of revelry and relaxation with a romantic, natural feel.

We recently got the full story behind this gorgeous wedding and how the property was used to schedule an entire weekend of activities. Amanda of Amanda Savory Events of The Wedding Artist Collective is sharing the details below, including some high-fashion inspiration that was incorporated into the overall design.

It’s not every day you will come across a bash celebrating the great stars above! Leave it up to the Wedding Artist Collective to host such a beautiful retreat with amazing creatives under the umbrella of such a celebratory celestial theme. Of course, the flawless execution by some of the best vendors in New York, doesn't hurt either. 

Arranged and planned by Loli Events, this overnight trip to Cedar Lakes Estate was a celestial fete of astrological proportion. The lucky guest list, made up of wedding industry folks from the NYC area, enjoyed an evening dinner on the farm followed by a little dance party and some tarot card readings. 

Cedar Lakes Estate was the ideal celestial spot to host this evening under the stars. A sprawling property in the Hudson River Valley, this adorable guest resort is as quaint as it is modern, with details anyone in the design industry can appreciate.

Stephanie and Lisa’s earliest memories were on the grounds of Cedar Lakes Estate, a gorgeous estate venue and 500 acre getaway in Port Jervis, New York. Growing up on the estate was any child’s dream-- White Christmases, fresh mountain air and lazy lakeside summer days made up the fabric of their childhood. They fell in love with the peace and tranquility of this special place immediately; even when they left their magical childhood home they would always find their way back. Each sister went on her own path but not for long, as they soon found their permanent way back and decided to share their childhoom home with the public for events, gatherings and getaways. Their story sounds like a fiction novel, so who better to give tips on hosting a Fall dinner party than these two sisters who live for celebrations?!
