My Wedding Planning: Snapshots from the Ithaca Farmers Market
So! My best friend/2nd shooter/maid of honor, Jenn, and I went to Ithaca for a fun day trip last week and I thought I’d show her the Ithaca Farmers Market while we were there. I have seen it as the farmers market and empty but I have never seen it as a wedding in person. While I love it’s outdoorsy and rustic look I don’t think it’s really for me seeing I want to be protected from the iffy NY autumn weather! But, I figured I’d add it to my venue list anyway! There are a ton of twinkly lights that made me swoon over the place, but I just know I need to be protected from the elements on my wedding day! JUST incase! 🙂
Pros:
• Unique and not your typical hotel setting
• Rustic wood beams exposed everywhere
• Open with a ton of natural lighting
• Great views
• Waterfront
• On site bathrooms

I personally LOVE the fully open venue. Plus, the fact that it’s such a blank slate is SO awesome. I just see it full of twinkling white lights!! It’d be daunting to plan to fully decorate, but this venue is gorgeous!!
I agree with Kathy! The blank slate is perfect for the creative couple. I love it!
I was at an absolutely gorgeous wedding here last fall!!!! It was so lovely! I could probably send you some pictures I took with my phone.
I’d like to see just for fun! I’m not considering this venue although it is lovely!
