Greek Peak Announces Dream Wedding Giveaway Contest Winners

July 18, 2024

CORTLAND, New York (July 18, 2024) – Greek Peak Mountain Resort announced the winners of its Dream Wedding Giveaway contest, a prize with a value of up to $15,000 depending on the size of the wedding party for an onsite ceremony and reception venue at Greek Peak Mountain Resort. Entrants’ only requirements were to submit their proposal story and why it would be special to have their wedding hosted by Greek Peak for a 2024 booking. Among the 30 submissions that came in, one entry stood out among the rest: Talore Desantis and Cody Lucey from Baldwinsville, NY.

Talore and Cody were seeking the perfect venue to bring their families together.  Talore is from the Central New York area and Cody’s family is from Berkshire County Massachusetts, but they both went to Cazenovia College, where their journey as a couple began.  They both enjoy the outdoors, good food, adventures, and time with family and friends, and they were drawn to Greek Peak’s storied history as a “mountain of memories”

Wes Kryger, president of Greek Peak Mountain Resort was excited to make the news of the wedding giveaway winners public.  “This is a first for us, a giveaway of this magnitude, and we are thrilled that we will be hosting Talore and Cody, who have strong ties to the Central New York area.  Kryger was particularly drawn to couple’s strong family ties, and added, “Their story really rings true with many others who decided to get married here at the mountain, and we are looking forward to helping create some unforgettable memories for them.”

An October 2024 wedding is currently being planned at The Lookout at Hope Lake, Greek Peak’s premier wedding venue, which is 4,500 square venue and can accommodate over 250 guests. 

The venue offers a combination of elegance with a rustic, farmhouse appeal nestled in a countryside setting.  Inside, guests gather around wooden tables and chairs underneath wrought iron chandeliers and await the full catering services available on site.  The venue features a 25-foot, full-service bar to accommodate your event, as well as bridal suites with a salon.  There are also honeymoon suite and block room accommodations through Hope Lake Lodge with shuttle services available.  Waterfalls Spa also awaits bridal party members at Hope Lake Lodge, and Cascades Indoor Waterpark is a great way to cap off any day with a splash.

We will be following Talore and Cody’s journey every step of the way through the initial tour to the day of the ceremony, so stay tuned for more updates throughout the summer and into the fall.  In the meantime, those interested in booking an event at The Lookout should call 844-290-4300 or e-mail your inquiry to events@thelookout.net.   You can also visit The Lookout’s website, www.thelookout.net or find them on Instagram for more information.
