Reception

Our Wedding

Love at first throw! Joey and Kate met though a cornhole league in Downingtown Pa. Kate worked for Downingtown Recreation running the cornhole league at local bars, Joey was a participant in the league. Joey says it goes like this....."obviously I always win...winner takes all...so I took Kate". Kate on the other hand remembers his charming wit and contagious laughter. Joey is always able to light up a room and make anyone laugh. This is why I love him she says, life is full of adventure and thrill together ! Joey and Kate connected ever since the first throw of cornhole and continued their relationship by&nbsp; playing coed softball together, going on hikes, cooking together, watching movies, dancing together, bonfires, shots of Goldshloeger, comedy shows, football and baseball games, dive slides, trips to Seneca Lake, yearly Hershey Park visits, annual Halloween couples costumes, concerts, and late night memories, truly creating an everyday adventure and consistent laughter forming the magic of their love in to the strong bond they have today!&nbsp;

Where It All Began...

The proposal. Everyone knew but her....

Kate thought it was a Birthday party she was planning for Joey. Joey had other plans as he and most guests knew he was flipping his own birthday party in to an engagement surprise party! To say the least it worked, Kate had no idea and was shocked beyond belief!&nbsp;



The proposal took place at the Thorndale Inn,&nbsp; Joey and Kate's first date location and their local bar down the street from their house which they are frequent guests. The staff at the Thorndale Inn even knew and helped in keeping it all secret and planning behind the scenes. Joey and Kate's family and friends crowded the bar waiting for Joey to make the move. As the party was about to move to their house for continued festivities, Joey stopped the party had flowers in hand and called Kate to the front. He started by thanking her for planning his party and how thankful he is for her, when he said "flowers are just not enough", he started to kneel and reach for his pocket and her hand covered her mouth and in that moment he looked up and asked "will you marry me". She said "YES" and&nbsp; they both embraced in a hug of pure love, and happiness! A beautiful cake and champagne toast was brought to the newly engaged couple. Family and friends surrounded in celebration!&nbsp; The happiness and love continued through the night as the future Mr. and Mrs. Cook celebrated their new chapter in their journey of love.&nbsp;

Seneca Lake State Park

<a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#seneca">Seneca Lake Wine Trail</a> <a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#seneca"></a>

The large size and deep depths of Seneca Lake make it ideal for grape growing. It is no surprise Seneca Lake hosts more wineries than any of the other Finger Lakes. A collection of over 35 wineries on Seneca Lake make up the Seneca Lake Wine Trail. This is the largest and most popular wine trail.



<a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#cayuga">Cayuga Lake Wine Trail</a> <a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#cayuga"></a>



The Cayuga Lake Wine Trail is the most eastern of the Finger Lakes wine trails. There are 16 wineries that make up the trail, each boasting their own unique offerings.<a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#keuka">Keuka Lake Wine Trail</a> <a href="https://fingerlakeswinerytours.com/wine-tours/#keuka"></a>



Keuka Lake, a Y-shaped lake known as the Lady of the Lakes, was the site of the pioneering of winemaking in the Finger Lakes region and has some extremely scenic and amazing views. The wineries on Keuka Lake afford guests winding scenic drives with views of the lake’s sparkling waters and abundant grapevines which include native varieties as well as European variety grapes. Explore the Keuka Lake Wine Trail year-round and discover the unique beauty the area has to offer while sipping award-winning, local wines. If you visit the Finger Lakes in the fall, you may even get the deliciously amazing experience of smelling grapes fresh off the vine being pressed for harvest!
