Kate + Jay at The Roundhouse in Beacon, NY

WEDDING

Nov 1

Written By Bea Rue

Overgrown and boarded up for years, a local Beacon family purchased the property in 2010 and a plan to create a vibrant hospitality business was put into action. This is one of the reasons we adore The Roundhouse. It’s a truly one-of-a-kind, historic property walled on two sides by a rushing waterfall in the very cool Beacon, NY. The management and staff are lovely, the grounds are immaculate, it has a ton of history (over 200 years!), and a way of combining rustic and modern for a vibe all their own. (They also have electric vehicle charging stations—love that!)

We were so very honored to play our part in Kate and Jay’s (third) wedding ceremony at The Roundhouse!

They eloped during Covid, had a wedding in India, then finally got their larger celebration with friends and family this past June. This was the party!

We love these gorgeous gorgeous photos by the amazing Caitlinn Mahar-Daniels. Be sure to scroll to the bottom for a list of wedding vendors that made this day so very special.

Kate and Jay reserved Game Rental Package #2 which included 2 sets of Cornhole, a set of Drink Tables to accompany Cornhole, Croquet, Tipsy Timbers (aka giant Jenga), Giant Connect Four, Giant Chess, and the Chess Lounge (2 large wooden benches with sheepskins). Their package also included a well-dressed attendant who was present during the wedding to reset the games as they were played, answer their guests’ questions, and offer playing tips as needed.

There were so many precious moments during this wedding. We love seeing how the games get adults interacting with children! They’re the ultimate family-friendly fun.

Freelance Web & Graphic Designer

Recently I began taking inventory of my life, recognizing the shifts I could make to lessen my personal consumption and impact. Since we spend a quarter of our lives working, that was certainly an area demanding attention. So I left retail and begin my career freelancing for small businesses whose higher purpose transcends profit.

I believe in employing my skills and energy to empower others working to create positive change in our world. I support too-swamped entrepreneurs by breathing life into their brands and websites, allowing them to focus on the important work at hand. At the same time, I get to nurture my own entrepreneurial spirit while being creative and building truly meaningful relationships throughout my community.

I strive to inform, delight and inspire by balancing content with design. I consider the details without losing sight of the big picture. I aim to see around corners while staying focused on the moment. I'm self directed but have over a decade of experience successfully working with teams. And while I've surely got bills to pay, I know it's my social responsibility to be selective about where I put my energy.
