Birch Hill Ceremonies

Let the ceremony of your dreams unfold in one of Albany’s most stunning settings. Anything you can imagine, we can make happen. And we can bring your wedding vision to life in any Birch Hill location that catches your heart. Imagine fresh flower petals complementing the rose gardens. Or a quiet, shaded ceremony nestled next to the woods. The views and experiences your guests enjoy at Birch Hill are unparalleled.

As you tour the Birch Hill Estate property, we invite you to explore two of our most popular ceremony sites. The Pond-Side Pergola, with a classic four-post arbor, elegant fountain and colorful rose garden in the background is simply stunning, while the Brookside Birdcage puts guests under the cool shade of evergreens and maple trees facing a peaceful stream and open field. Complete with power access for your DJ or band, both spaces are ready to make your ceremony more spectacular than you’ve ever imagined.

Stablegate Ceremonies

If the ivory wrought-iron archway with growing vines and large Northern Catalpa tree in the background are any indication of the beauty that awaits you at Stablegate Farm and Vineyard, then your guests are in for a real treat. Among the meandering grape vines and Edison bulb-lit grove, you will find no shortage of enchanting ceremony spaces.

For a taste of the incredible settings Stablegate Farm and Vineyard offers, imagine a sunset ceremony overlooking the Catskill Mountains or a charming barn wedding with horses nearby. Wherever your imagination takes your ceremony, your guests will soak up the breathtaking views, rustic features and elegantly presented small bites and champagne greeting.
