KAYLA + NOAH

 

Kayla & Noah’s Romantic Castle Hill Resort Wedding

Kayla and Noah’s wedding at the timeless Castle Hill Resort & Spa was nothing short of magical. Tucked away in the Green Mountains, this elegant and historic mansion is one of Vermont’s most unique and memorable wedding venues—where classic New England charm meets storybook romance.

From the stately architecture and lush gardens to the sweeping lawns and hidden corners, Castle Hill offers a dreamy backdrop at every turn. Whether inside the richly adorned mansion or beneath the open sky, every setting felt like a page from a fairytale.

Their wedding day was filled with laughter, love, and the kind of joyful moments that make a celebration unforgettable. It was such a pleasure to photograph a couple so deeply connected, surrounded by beauty and warmth.

Here is a selection of some of my favorite images from their day—romantic, heartfelt, and a little bit enchanted.
