DUTCHESS COUNTY DESTINATION GUIDE
WHAT’S YOUR WEDDING STYLE?

Lambs Hill, Beacon
RUSTIC
Barn settings and serene views of picturesque properties are hallmarks of casual and cozy nuptials. Say “I do” under hand-hewn beams, reclaimed wood and vaulted ceilings. Grand mountains and rolling hills surround sentimental ceremonies. Stunning photos of priceless moments await!
