The Venue

Up to 50 guests! We’re choosing to stay small for hosting because we find that our skills really shine at that number. We love photographing big weddings and are often in a sea of hundreds and hundreds of people, but when we put on our hosting hats, we prefer to niche down to a smaller guest list.

Precisely the opposite. We’re capping our space at 2 events per month to retain the quality of service that we have always prided ourselves on. We’re not going to be a wedding mill and don’t want to see the space get beaten up and worn down like traditional venues. Whenever we host— past, present, or future— we’re opening up the doors to our homes and our hearts. Apollo Fields has always been a deeply personal brand and we’re committed to not wavering in this style of service.

Yes and no. This property is a private residence, first and foremost. It’s not going to be a big box wedding venue turning over large volumes of events. We’re not a ballroom, not a catering hall, and we won’t resemble anything like the big traditional turn-and-burn style weddings that you often find in the NY Metro. Not to say that we don’t enjoy being a part of events like these when we strictly have our photographer hats on— it’s just not the type of event space that we are offering. We will be offering a limited amount of reservations to other photographers with a permit and are happy to escort you through the property. We have always valued likeminded creatives and look forward to enriching our already wonderful community of friends and colleagues.

We have always been inspired by couples that invest in a truly unique experience, crafting days that reflect their personalities and passions. We would love to attract couples that share the same values of quality over quantity, who love nature, and believe that something special happens when people come together over a shared dinner table. We envision cocktail hours in the garden, live music, signature drinks, candlelit evenings with your closest friends and family belly laughing over a good joke, long hugs and long pours of whisky. If this sounds like something you’d get excited about, let’s make some magic together.

Yes, totally, with the proper business insurance and licensing. We’re not going to be forcing couples to only choose from our preferred vendor list, but also want to do our due diligence and are happy to guide couples in the right directions.

As of right now, we can accommodate 15 parked vehicles but always encourage a ride sharing service for anyone who plans on consuming alcohol.

Quiet time will be at 10pm and all guests will be asked to be off premises by midnight. Most importantly, we are in a residential area and need to be mindful of our neighbors.

The elephant in the room: our pricing structure will be customized to the unique needs of each couple and event, but we can say that for our 2025 season—particularly for weekday events—we will be offering discounted rates. As always, we strive to be fair in our pricing, while valuing the importance of these investments. We don’t take shortcuts and compensate our associates and purveyors the rates they deserve. We believe in quality: whether it’s the equipment we photograph on, the albums you receive your wedding images in, the ingredients that make up your favorite dish, the napkins you place on your lap… all the things that make up the Apollo Fields experience are done mindfully and at a caliber that we’re proud to stand behind.
