Lakeside Garden Weddings at Whiteface Club & Resort Are Pure Magic.
As a wedding photographer, I’m always paying attention to how a location feels and not just how it looks. The gardens at Whiteface Club and Resort, overlooking Lake Placid, is one of those rare ceremony spots that feels effortlessly stunning. It’s quiet, intimate, and stunning in its simplicity — a perfectly framed view of the water and mountains, surrounded by lush florals and mountain air.
From a photography standpoint, the light here is beautiful reflecting off the lake. Soft, natural, and filtered just enough by the surrounding trees to give every image a sense of depth and calm. There’s space for guests to take in the moment without distraction, and for couples to feel fully present, which is everything.
If you're dreaming of a lakeside ceremony that blends elegance with the peace of nature, this space delivers. I’d return to photograph a garden wedding here in a heartbeat.

The Whiteface Club in Lake Placid has truly become one of the standout vacation destinations in the Adirondacks. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear how much pride the staff take in making sure every guest has a world-class experience.
The golf course is a gem—Perry, the golf pro, along with the entire maintenance crew, run it with such care and attention. Whether you’re a member of 20 years or playing for the very first time, you feel welcomed and looked after. It’s a fun and challenging mountain course that always delivers a memorable round.
The wedding venue is nothing short of unrivaled. There’s simply no other place where you can exchange vows on the water with Whiteface Mountain as your backdrop, then step straight into a classic wooden boat with your new spouse, champagne in hand, as your guests cheer you on from the dock. Returning right into cocktail hour is the kind of Adirondack magic that only Whiteface Club can offer.
Thanks to Andrew and his team, the dining experience has been elevated to new heights. Both Café on the Green and Moose Lodge deliver exceptional food, outstanding drinks, and service that matches the breathtaking views. The combination of quality and atmosphere makes every meal feel special.
Ultimately, it’s the people who make this already spectacular property extraordinary. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality are what will keep my wife and me coming back for many years to come.

My husband and I had a superb dinner at Cafe on the Green at the WFC Friday night. We dined in the bar area: a cozy room decorated in the spirit of the Adirondacks overlooking the snowy grounds--including an ice skating rink created by the staff!! The bar was crowded (but not overly packed), with patrons clearly having a wonderful time. Our meal was outstanding. Perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and utterly delicious. We only recently discovered that many of the facilities are open to the public, not just property owners. We look forward to returning this weekend for some nighttime snow shoeing or cross-country skiing, all lit with torches. We can't wait!! And we'll definitely be back for dinner.

The Whiteface Club and Resort was an exceptional choice for our wedding venue. From the very beginning, their communication was thorough, prompt and timely, putting our minds at ease throughout the planning process. On the day of, the venue was gorgeous, private and easy to navigate. Sebastian and the entire staff took incredible care of us, our family, bridal party and guests - everyone felt special and attended to. The warm, personable and calm vibe of the space created the perfect cozy and romantic setting for our fall wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are so grateful to the Whiteface team for helping make our day so perfect!

Stayed at an airbnb on this property for two days with my boyfriend and we had an absolute blast! We loved how close it was to all the attractions. For those visiting Lake Placid this is a great place to stay! It’s right on the Lake. We also loved how beautiful the rooms were!
