I just adore Colonial Williamsburg – I’ve only been there to enjoy the history, but imagine using it as the location for your engagement session as Chris and Melanie did with photographer Diana Gordon. Oh, and the bride has a fun backstory about her engagement. I love it!! I’m going to let her tell you...
Williamsburg weddings lend themselves to so much beauty. The area is filled with history, and so many of the locations feature brick and offset nooks and crannies for fun photos as you will see here. We also adore what the bride, Sarah, had to say about her special day: The inspiration for our wedding was...

Virginia is full of lovely estates and homes, and I adore it when one is turned into a stunning venue. With light and airy colors and fun details, Maegan and Jonathan had a lovely manor wedding.
I adore engagement sessions. They are full of love and hugs and stories. And does this couple have a great story! Both of their jobs and a formerly arranged marriage (no joke!) come into play. Take a peek at this adorable Virginia brewery engagement session today.
Believe it or not, this couple was worried about how they would do in front of the camera. Their plethora of amazing photos from their William and Mary engagement session prove that they are naturals. So adorable!

When it comes to looking your best things aren’t just limited to the bride. Right? Grooms want to look their very best, too! And with beards being so en vogue, it’s great to tame those facial tresses on and before the big day. We found some beard grooming products for the groom that we think...

UmikoI think we have to make a detour for Franklin and Bethlehem next time we go to Pennsylvania from Texas. All this time we only drove by the outskirt of the cities. Mystic and Woodstock sound interesting, too. We’ve been there in the summer, so I have no doubt these cities look incredible during the holiday season.
ReneeThese destinations all sound wonderfully festive. I’d especially like to stay on the east coast and do NYC, Connecticut. How cute is Bethlehem, that would be beautiful to take a nighttime carriage ride to see the lights.
NataschaI am a big fan of light-ups and I am too lazy to decorate my own home. That is why I prefer christmas holiday destinations. I can imagine that a lot of American cities put a great effort in their light-up and I would love to see this one day.
BhushaAs someone who loved White Christmas, Utah would be my top pick. Of course, you cannot go wrong with NYC. Oldest Inn in USA? Now, that’s super interesting and my kinda place. Home to Polar Express? Well, now I’m intrigued about it as well. I really wouldn’t want to miss the Lantern light tour at Connecticut. It is difficult to pick one!!!
Ambica GulatiI like all these 15 destinations. But I would surely lke to do Utah and Colorado. And the Rhinebeck sounds unmissable. But I guess, it will be for 2023 Christmas now!
JanLove this list! I would love to visit Philadelphia and Woodstock during festive seasons. Lights and decorations bring cheer and happiness. It’s a tough job to pick one out the many listed as the best. 🙂
ClariceWow! These are great destinations. I am not really familiar with Darby but we’d love to learn more and explore the area. Snowshoeing and horseback riding sounds really exciting and fun.
SaurabhI was in Park City and NYC in mid and late January a few years ago, and the atmosphere was truly vibrant. Would like to revisit the cities during Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
