Lexie & Andrew’s Radiant Wedding at Ravenwood Golf Club | A Love That Runs Wild
From Soccer Fields to Forever
Some weddings feel like a dream — others feel like a chapter right out of your favorite love story. Lexie and Andrew’s wedding at the enchanting Ravenwood Golf Club in Victor, New York was both. As a wedding videographer lucky enough to witness their day unfold, I left not just with (very!) full SD cards but a full heart.
Lexie and Andrew’s journey began with a spark over shared snacks and late-night study sessions at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. A friendship turned romance, nurtured by years of laughter, adventure, and deep understanding, culminating in a day filled with soulful vows, joyful dancing, and tearful toasts.
A Venue Like No Other: Why Ravenwood Golf Club is a Hidden Gem
Let’s take a moment to talk about Ravenwood Golf Club, because oh my stars, this venue is a fairytale come to life. Nestled in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, Ravenwood offers a perfect blend of lush green landscapes and elegant modern touches. And if you haven't checked it out already, I have an in-depth vendor review of Ravenwood Golf Club in another blog post here.
With panoramic views of the golf course, an elegant indoor ballroom, and a dedicated event team, Ravenwood Golf Club is a true gem for couples looking for a romantic and refined wedding day. The ceremony unfolded on their scenic outdoor grounds, kissed by sunlight and surrounded by rolling hills, while the reception sparkled under soft chandeliers in the grand ballroom. Truly, it's no wonder this venue is one of the top wedding destinations in Western New York.
The Ceremony: Laughter, Tears & Lifelong Promises
Lexie’s smile lit up the aisle as she walked toward Andrew, who stood teary-eyed and beaming. Their vows were spoken with such intention and vulnerability — a reminder that true love isn’t just butterflies and grand gestures; it’s choosing each other every day.
Lexie's nonno captured it perfectly: “A true marriage begins well before the wedding day… It is not only marrying the right partner, it is being the right partner.” The crowd nodded along, hearts swelling with emotion.
The exchange of rings — warm, joyful, and a little bit giggly — had the entire crowd smiling. Andrew looked at Lexie as if he were seeing her for the first time, and Lexie’s vow to “not let him throw any more rocks” was a cheeky callback to their childhood mischief, shared lovingly by Andrew’s brother in his speech.
Love in Full Color: Personal Touches and Family Traditions
Their wedding was rich with deeply personal moments that made it unforgettable.
From heartfelt letters read aloud to moving family tributes, their day was stitched together with threads of humor, loyalty, and legacy. Lexie’s sister recalled how private and protective Lexie had always been — never bringing boys home, never sharing too much — and how Andrew, from the moment he was introduced, was different. Special. Permanent.
One of the most beautiful family moments came when Lexie’s father shared a story about raising her through her soccer years — long drives, passionate sidelines, and even longer hugs. “Some people wait a lifetime to meet their soccer hero,” he said. “I raised mine.” There wasn’t a dry eye in the house.
Reception Revelry: Running Wild Into the Night
The reception was pure joy. Emotional speeches gave way to epic dance floor moments. Lexie and Andrew floated through their first dance like they were the only two people in the room. Later, the room came alive as everyone joined them — from grandparents to flower girls — in a whirlwind of dance, laughter, and celebration.
Lexie & Andrew: A Love that Feels Like Home
What I’ll remember most about Lexie and Andrew’s day isn’t just how breathtaking everything looked — though, let’s be honest, Lexie was a vision in white and Andrew cleaned up like a Hallmark movie groom — but how it felt. Joyful. Real. Effortless.
They’re more than a beautiful couple. They’re best friends. Soulmates. Partners who meet life’s chaos with love, and who genuinely like being around each other — a surprisingly rare and wonderful thing.
From the loving chaos of their families to the soccer-filled origin story to their genuine devotion to one another, it’s clear they’ve found their person. Their forever.
