Smolak Farms, North Andover MA

Over the years of photographing weddings across New England, few places have captured my heart quite like Smolak Farms, a beloved local gem just minutes from my hometown.

Smolak Farms isn’t just a wedding venue to me. It’s part of my family’s story. We have spent countless afternoons there picking apples and pumpkins, hunting for Easter eggs, feeding the barn animals, and letting the kids run wild on the playground. It’s a place where community and memories intertwine, making it even more special when I get to document weddings there.

For couples searching for a picturesque New England setting, Smolak Farms delivers in every season. The farm offers multiple stunning backdrops:

The Pine Grove
A serene ceremony space surrounded by towering trees over a century old.

The Antique Apple Orchard
Whimsical and romantic, with rows of apple trees leading to a charming white pergola draped in delicate white clematis, perfect for exchanging vows.

The Rustic Barn
Ideal for cocktail hour or cozy intimate portraits with that timeless farm charm.

While every season has its beauty, Fall at Smolak Farms is pure magic. The foliage transforms into golden hues, the apple orchards are brimming with fruit, and the air carries that unmistakable crispness of New England autumn. It is the quintessential farm wedding experience, warm, inviting, and effortlessly stunning.

Whether you are drawn by its natural beauty, its relaxed atmosphere, or the sense of nostalgia that comes with a place like this, Smolak Farms is a venue that never fails to enchant. For me, photographing weddings here always feels like coming home.
