One thing I love about Buffalo is how many historical wedding venues exist. The Hotel at the Lafayette is just one of the many stunning venues downtown Buffalo has to offer.
As soon as you enter the hotel lobby you are immersed in historical charm. High ceilings, ornate plasterwork, and mosaic foors make Lafayette a stunning backdrop to your day.
Molly and Dez truly made full use of the building allowing guests to expereince multiple rooms of the building.
The wedding party got ready in Hotel Lafayettes bridal suite, with a balcony overlooking Lafayette square and allowing for stunning portraits.
Guests started the day celebrating the couple in the Crystal room for the wedding ceremony. One of my favorite rooms filled with stunning mirrors, massive windows, and unique molding.
Then guests headed upstairs to the Courtyard room to enjoy cocktail hour before getting the party started in the Greenhouse room where the rest of the evening took place.
Every last detail of this day was stunning and I had so much fun capturing this day.
