NEARBY HOTELS

The Northampton Valley Country Club has a small bridal suite so we suggest getting ready at a nearby hotel. A hotel nearby is the Hampton Inn and Suites on Stony Hill Road. We do suggest the Bride and Groom get ready in the same place.

PORTRAIT LOCATIONS

It's time for your first look, portraits and bridal party photos. We'll most likely head across the driveway to the big field for your first look and bridal party photos. It is a great open space for your full bridal party. We will also venture over to the golf course and take some pictures on the course. 

THE CEREMONY

The patio right outside the country club is perfect.  This area has a lot of wide open space allowing you to decorate however you'd like. The golf course makes for a great backdrop as your guests watch your get married!

THE BALLROOM

Inside the country club you'll find loads of charm. Their huge ballroom and cocktail space is the perfect blank slate to decorate to your heart desire. The wide open dance floor is perfect for the party to get started! 

Should we both get ready at The Northampton Country Club?

FAQ

We suggest getting hair and makeup done at a nearby hotel. We also suggest getting in your dresses at a different location, such as a nearby hotel. The Northampton Country Club allows you to arrive a few hours prior to your ceremony. We've found it's helpful to take advantage of that especially if you're sharing in a first look. This gives you enough time to arrive, and take pictures without any stress.

A FEW OF OUR MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SHOOTING WEDDINGS AT The Northampton valley country club

Where do you recommend taking our family portraits?

Family photos most often happen right at the ceremony space. We may do it under the arbor if the lighting is nice or we may shift you into a spot with better lighting. If we're experiencing some rain, we may take photos under the over hang or into the reception space. Either way, we'll put you in the very best spot for lighting.

What time should we schedule our ceremony to begin?

This is going to depend on the time of year that you're getting married. If you're sharing in a first look, the best time to have your ceremony end is 1 hour prior to sunset. If you're not sharing in a first look then we would suggest your ceremony ending 2 hours prior to sunset. Most ceremonies at the Northampton Valley Country Club last approximately 30 minutes.

Do they allow for sparkler exits? Should we do one?

Northampton Valley Country Club does allow for sparkler exits. We've photographed some great exits using bubbles, glow-sticks, and American flags. Get creative with your exit and think outside the box. Sparklers are definitely the way to go, in our opinion, especially if your reception ends after sunset.

How long should we plan to take bride & groom portraits?

We typically schedule 45 minutes for bride + groom portraits if you're sharing in a first look. If you're not sharing in a first look, you can expect to have approximately 10 minutes for bride and groom photos. For this reason, we highly encourage a first look because your photos are the first things to get cut short if something runs behind.

Should we have our ceremony indoors or outdoors?

Our preference is to always have your ceremony outside, unless it's pouring rain. If you know it's going to be cold and don't want to keep your guests outside for to terribly long, we'd suggest sharing more personal vows to one another in private, maybe during your first look, and then having a shortened 10 minute ceremony outdoors. We promise, it'll be worth it and you'll warm back up in minutes once you're inside again.
