There is something magical about Christmas in the Fingerlakes especially after the first snow and this year we are going to have a white Christmas! I have been able to visit some lovely Fingerlakes locations during the holidays and they happen to be some of my favorite wedding venues as well. With all the vibrant decorations and sparkling lights it makes me wonder why more couples don't have Christmas weddings. The Aurora Inn in charming Aurora, NY is elegantly decorated in any season but during Christmas with the roaring fires and lovely garlands it warms the heart...

The E.B. Morgan House Inn is just a short walk from the Aurora Inn and is a stunner durning the holidays, one lucky family chose to rent the entire place to celebrate Christmas in haute style...

Anyela's Vineyard is the ideal place to warm your toes by the fire while enjoying delicious wine and snow-swept views of Skaneateles lake...

The Lodge at Welch Allyn in Skaneateles is busy all year round hosting lovely weddings and celebrations of all kinds...

The Skaneateles Country Club may be winding down for a winter break but not before celebrating Christmas and New Year's Eve with style...

The Sherwood in Skaneateles is always welcoming in any season but its huge roaring fireplaces, amazing French onion soup, and festive Christmas decorations make it a favorite during the cold winter months...

The most romantic Christmas getaway in the fingerlakes has to go to Mirbeau Inn and Spa in Skaneateles, the winter wonderland that is created in their snowy gardens is just magical...
