Plattsburgh

Plattsburgh wedding photography a timeline for the day

Plattsburgh is on Lake Champlain, in New York’s North Country. Put the ceremony and dinner on the schedule first, then the time by the water.

A planning guide from Bella Vita Wedding Photography & Films

Lock the ceremony and the meal

Write the ceremony time and when dinner is served. Family photographs and couple portraits fit in what those times leave.

Put getting ready on the schedule

Add dressing, gathering the wedding party, and the drive to the ceremony if getting ready is somewhere else. The morning is part of the timeline.

Give the water a real window

Plattsburgh sits on Lake Champlain. If portraits use a shoreline, a lawn, or a dock, look at that spot in daylight and agree where people can stand. Wind or a wet dock can shorten the window. Leave time to move back from the water.

Plan the water at the venue

Check sunset for your date

Look up the sunset for your date, then leave a margin so portraits are not racing the last light. Do not copy a sunset time from another wedding.

See the published Plattsburgh wedding

Tiffany and Casey were married at Harmony Golf Club in Plattsburgh. Their gallery is the published Plattsburgh wedding. It shows a golf-course celebration. It is not a schedule to copy.

Ask for a travel quote

Travel from Montreal is included within 20 km. A Plattsburgh wedding is in the North Country, with Saranac and the Thousand Islands, and it is quoted on its own.
