Vermont Wedding: Cheryl and Billy at Topnotch Resort in Stowe

Although Cheryl was born and raised in New Hampshire, she lived in San Diego for three years after college. So needless to say, we definitely hit it off with our love for SoCal (and our San Diego cell phone numbers we both hold on to.) Cheryl and Billy traveled from New Hampshire to get married at Topnotch Resort in Stowe, Vermont. They really could not have asked for more perfect fall weather for their romantic wedding!

Cheryl got ready for her big day in her private suite with her bridesmaids. Cheryl’s dress was one for the books – the amount of detail and lace put into the design was breathtaking! She had two first looks, one with her dad (talk about all the happy tears) and one with her future husband, Billy. We made sure to get plenty of portraits on the deck and immersed in the trees before everyone took their places for the ceremony.

Cheryl and Billy got married under a gorgeous natural wood pergola surrounded by their friends and family. Their glamorous wedding celebration continued on the lawn with a clear tent, lounge furniture, tiny succulents, and a gold disco ball hanging from greenery leaves. The guest enjoyed delicious food and crafty cocktails while literally dancing under the stars.

Hi, I’m Savannah

Originally from sunny Southern California, I’ve found my heart—and my home—in the charm of Vermont. It’s a long story (best shared over coffee or cocktails), but let’s just say Stowe won me over fast. With its cozy, cinematic beauty, it truly feels like living in a Hallmark movie.

  • I get to photograph a lot of proposals, but this one hit different. A picnic by the water, a stone gazebo, and the easiest “yes” I think I’ve ever witnessed. Vermont magic at its finest. 

Shout out to @vermontpicnicparadise for the cutest picnic set up. It was lovely to work with them and I can’t recommend enough!

  • We hit golden hour just right—the kind where the light makes everything feel like a movie. 🌞

Open fields, the mountains doing their thing in the background, and the cutest covered bridge to wrap it all up.

Honestly? Kinda mad senior sessions weren’t this cool when I was in high school. 😆
