The Lace Factory Wedding Photography & Videography
Featured VenueNewport, Boston and beyond.
The Lace Factory is a restored 1875 mill at 161 River Street in Deep River, Connecticut, across from the Connecticut River and the Essex Steam Train's Deep River Landing. Move Mountains Co. has photographed and filmed weddings at The Lace Factory.



An 1875 mill by the railroad
Lace was made in the building from 1937 until 1990. Today the main hall has exposed brick, high rafters, hardwood floors and big windows, with room for up to 225 guests, and the Riverview Room hosts up to 49 with decks over the river. Couples can arrive on the Essex Steam Train's vintage Pullman coach. Dave and Lyndsey married in the draped main hall in October, took portraits on the railroad tracks and by the old brick walls, and partied in the same room that night.
The Lace Factory team made it easy to turn one big room from ceremony to party.
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.
