Olivia and Carlos celebrate their stunning Kanopi wedding on a rainy yet magical day in White Plains. This Westchester wedding feels luxurious and intimate, with incredible views stretching all the way to New York City. Despite the weather, the day glows with emotion, color, and energy.
Olivia begins her wedding day in a beautiful suite at The Opus Westchester. The space is perfect for morning moments with her closest friends and family. It’s filled with natural light, which we always appreciate as photographers.
Meanwhile, Carlos gets ready in the Hudson Room at Kanopi, a sleek space with clean lines and calm energy. We capture quiet moments with his family and a few excited shots with his friends. There’s a calm joy that fills both rooms.
These two choose not to see each other before the ceremony. That makes the moment Olivia walks down the aisle feel even more emotional. As Hudson Valley wedding photographers, we love when couples create space for these kinds of powerful reveals.
The ceremony takes place in Kanopi’s upstairs space. It features a mirrored floor that reflects the soft glow of the florals. Olivia and Carlos stand beneath a breathtaking chuppah covered in fresh blooms. There isn’t a dry eye in the room.
Because they wait to see each other until the ceremony, we do separate portraits beforehand. Family photos are calm and efficient in these lovely indoor spaces. It helps everything stay on track. We take advantage of Kanopi’s beautiful architecture to provide strong backdrops.
After the ceremony, we sneak the couple away for a short but joyful portrait session. Even with the rain, Kanopi offers plenty of beautiful indoor backdrops. These two bring the energy, which makes the portraits feel candid and fun. We love working quickly during these windows, capturing just enough before sending the couple to cocktail hour.
Kanopi sits high above White Plains in a gorgeous penthouse event space. This White Plains event space offers panoramic views of the Hudson Valley and New York City. Even on rainy days, the views remain soft and dreamy.
During cocktail hour, we experience one of the most beautiful sunsets of the season. Guests cheer as the clouds part and reveal warm pinks and oranges. As soon as the sun dips, the hora kicks off, filling the room with laughter and movement.
We love the energy of a good hora. Everyone joins in, and it turns into a burst of sound and color. Olivia and Carlos are lifted into the air, laughing as they hold onto their chairs. These are the kinds of moments we live for.
The reception is held in the main dining space, lit with moody neon blues and soft candlelight. Olivia and Carlos enjoy heartfelt speeches and cheers from loved ones. Guests toast, laugh, and sometimes cry as stories are shared.
After dinner, the couple returns to the ceremony space, now transformed into a dance floor. The lighting shifts, and it feels like a scene from a movie. Olivia and Carlos take the floor for their first dance.
Their first dance to “Pure Imagination” is absolutely dreamy. The lighting, the music, and their connection all create a cinematic moment. We photograph this from multiple angles to capture the movement and emotion. Every spin and smile tells a story.
Once the dance floor opens, it never slows down. Olivia and Carlos know how to party. Their friends and family dance hard all night, and the joy in the room is contagious. We capture everything from wild moves to emotional hugs.
From the music to the lighting to the vibe, the energy keeps building. These moments are what we call organized chaos, full of life and love. As Hudson Valley wedding photographers, we’re always looking for the heart of the party. This one delivers.
Shoutout to DJ and photo booth team A Perfect Blend. They help set the tone for an unforgettable celebration. From sound to visuals, they keep everything flowing smoothly. Their lighting design helps elevate each space from moment to moment.
As Hudson Valley wedding photographers, we always appreciate venues that offer great light and beautiful views. Kanopi gives us both, with the added bonus of an upscale, modern feel. It’s one of our favorite White Plains event spaces.
Even with rain, Kanopi delivers. This venue proves that indoor weddings can still feel elevated and romantic. We’re so glad Olivia and Carlos trust us to document their day from start to finish.
Our wedding photography style blends candids with a bit of editorial polish. We guide when needed, but mostly we’re there to document your moments as they happen. Real emotion is what matters most.
This Kanopi wedding is full of beautiful light, raw emotion, and nonstop joy. Olivia and Carlos pour their hearts into every moment. From the quiet start at The Opus to the electric dance floor, the day is unforgettable.
Every detail is intentional. Every moment is packed with meaning. Their friends and family surround them with joy and love. From the teary ceremony to the vibrant party, it’s the kind of wedding we’re honored to be a part of.
