I capture the unspoken — the glances, the silences — drawing from New York's pulse and the richness of global cultures. Every wedding is its own intricate narrative. Rooted in theatre and life's everyday rhythms, I document moments both transient and timeless.

Liberty View Farm Wedding Venue: NY’s Nature Escape

If you’re dreaming of a peaceful, romantic escape just outside New York, then Liberty View Farm wedding venue is for you. 

As a New York wedding photographer who’s seen countless venues, I absolutely adore this one.

It’s just a 2-hour drive from the city, situated in a dreamy farm setting, with the loveliest and most attentive team to help you create a wedding you’ll cherish forever. Curious to learn more about Liberty View Farm wedding venue? 

Let’s dive in!

About Liberty View Farm wedding venue

Liberty View Farm in Highland is just a few hours from NYC, but it feels like a whole different world. Right on top of a hill, this place offers stunning photo opportunities with breathtaking backdrops.

You’ll feel a refreshing breeze as you take in the 20 acres of beautifully maintained gardens and apple orchards. It’s all surrounded by natural beauty, with gardens, large trees, stone walls, several barns, a greenhouse, and a charming farmhouse. 

This venue is also dedicated to sustainability, organic farming, and ethical labor. You can even pick some organic apples while you’re here! 

By choosing Liberty View Farm, you not only get married in a gorgeous natural setting but also support the wonderful farmers who are making a difference in the world.

Liberty View Farm has also been featured in Martha Stewart’s Wedding Book and has hosted over 200 weddings in the past 18 years. They truly know their stuff and can effortlessly provide a wedding of any kind.

Facilities and capacity at the venue

At this farm, you can truly have it all. Whether you’re planning a big weekend wedding with up to 400 guests or a smaller, intimate ceremony, Liberty View Farm has you covered. 

Plenty of areas to host your celebration

For your wedding, you can choose from their beautiful outdoor and indoor event areas. Outside, there’s a great open-air space under a huge tree, perfect for your ceremony. 

In case the weather doesn’t cooperate (which rarely happens), they have several options to hold your ceremony and cocktail reception under cover in the barn or a tent.

The barn is spacious yet cozy and it features many architecturally interesting elements like the wooden timber roof frame.

Here’s a quick rundown of what you’ll find in this venue: Ceremony Area, Covered Outdoor Space, Getting Ready Room, Indoor Event Space, On-Site Accommodations, Outdoor Event Space, and Reception Area.

You can mix and match these spaces any way you like and create a ceremony that perfectly matches your vision. 

On-site Accommodation

If you’re planning a wedding weekend celebration, you can stay at the Farmhouse and also enjoy their cabin and tents for your guests. The on-site accommodation includes three bedrooms, two full baths, an extra outdoor private shower, and a cozy cabin.

The cabin is nestled in the middle of the orchard and can host two guests or serve as a getting-ready suite. For guests who love to camp, there’s space for up to eight tents, giving everyone enough room to be comfortable.

If you have the chance to stay here overnight, I highly recommend it. Their accommodation is an experience in itself and can add a beautiful, unforgettable touch to your already dreamy wedding. 

Liberty View Farm was even featured in Airbnb’s magazine as one of four international properties chosen out of four million! If nothing else, this should show just how special this farm truly is.

Thoughtfully designed functional spaces 

They also have a large on-site parking area for up to 156 cars and a lot of space for buses too. When you arrive, their team will warmly welcome everyone and guide them to the venue.

Plus, all the little extras for the dreamiest celebration

You don’t need to stress about bringing anything other than your wedding essentials. For your celebration, they provide everything you may need from furniture to decorations. 

Think farm tables, white padded chairs, dinnerware, and unique décor items.

You can choose from their many props, like a farm photo booth setup, lawn games, tiki torches, silver platters and trays, votive candles, column and globe candles, and so much more!

If that sounds a bit overwhelming, don’t worry. Their wedding planner will help you choose the right props and everything else to create the exact vibe you want… Which brings me to my next point…

Services Offered at the venue

The venue team doesn’t provide catering, but they do help set up tables, chairs, and props, and they take care of the cleanup after each part of the weekend. You’re welcome to bring in outside vendors and make the experience fully yours.

Their services vary based on the package you choose, from small, intimate ‘Micro Weddings’ to full ‘Wedding Weekend’ celebrations. Each package includes different options of services and props available.

If you need help planning your wedding, their owner has you covered. He has helped almost all his clients plan stunning wedding celebrations, and the reviews show people absolutely loved it. 

So, you don’t need to hire an external wedding consultant or planner. They offer weekly phone calls and guides you through the entire process, from your first booking to when you leave the wedding. 

While you’re free to use your own vendors, they have a list of trusted vendors they can refer you to, and will help set up meetings, organize lists, build itineraries, assist with guest lodging, and even run a wedding rehearsal if needed. 

They’re also more than just a wedding venue

Alright, now let’s dive into what makes this venue truly special. Beyond its dreamy location and a team that goes above and beyond, Liberty View Farm is dedicated to sustainability and ethical labor, ensuring fair wages for their team.

When you host your wedding here, you’ll be part of their Ag-tourism initiative. Each wedding booking includes 100 CSA Apple Tree Leases. 

What does that mean? Your guests can enjoy apple picking for delicious organic apples after brunch, and even bake apple pies if they’d like. Imagine adding that fun detail to your wedding invitation!

Plus, by choosing this venue, you’re also supporting their amazing sustainability programs, like donating 30,000 lbs of food through their food pantries.

So, not only do you get a stunning wedding, but you also contribute to the community in a meaningful way!
