Come wintertime, nothing sets the scene like pure white snow. This magical wood-and-stone lodge in the Adirondack Mountains has it by the bucketful, plus several cozy spots for a ceremony and reception. In a wonderland like this, the possibilities for fun are endless, from greeting guests with hot mugs of spiked cocoa to departing by horse-drawn sleigh.
Make it official in front of a crackling fire in the lodge's Artisan's Circle (left) or Moose Room. To play up the ambience, set out lit candles, line the aisle with fragrant pine boughs, and drape a few plush throws over chair backs.
Welcome guests with tins of The Adirondack Popcorn Co.'s Moose Crunch. They can snack on the mix of caramel corn, peanuts, pretzels, chocolate, and peanut butter all weekend.
Host your rehearsal dinner in town at Lisa G's, a cult favorite. The menu changes with the seasons, but the signature thin-crust pizzas are served year-round. Order a bunch, and let everyone dig right in.
