The Edison Downtown Wedding Photography & Videography
Featured VenueNewport, Boston and beyond.
The Edison Downtown is an industrial-chic venue in the heart of Schenectady, New York, in a historic building that later housed the Schenectady Gazette. Move Mountains Co. photographed and filmed Pedro + Ariana's wedding here: a ceremony in the bright White Room, portraits out on the downtown streets and a reception under the ballroom chandeliers.

Exposed brick, chandeliers and city streets
The venue is at 132 North Broadway in downtown Schenectady. The ballroom pairs exposed brick and wood floors with big chandeliers, and the White Room offers clean white walls and tall windows for a ceremony or cocktail hour. The building still keeps an original 1894 printing press, and brick sidewalks, storefronts and old industrial facades are a short walk away.
The Edison team kept the whole day moving smoothly, and we'd love to photograph many more weddings here.
Move Mountains Co. has photographed and filmed weddings across Newport, Boston and beyond for 10 years. We're a preferred vendor at 100+ New England venues, a ten-time The Knot Best of Weddings winner and a member of The Knot Hall of Fame.
