Amanda & Mason’s Notting Hill Farm Wedding: A Love Story That Started With Crocs
Some love stories begin with fate. Others begin with a swipe right. Amanda and Mason’s? It started with a message about Crocs.
Yes, really.
Out of all the possible opening lines, Mason chose fashion commentary. But somehow, it worked. Maybe it was his towering 6’5” presence, his sarcastic humor, or Amanda’s appreciation for comfortable footwear, but from that very first conversation, something clicked.
Five years later, surrounded by the people they love most at Notting Hill Farm, Amanda and Mason officially began the next chapter of a relationship built on laughter, loyalty, and the kind of love that only grows stronger with time.

A Rochester Love Story Built on Laughter
Amanda and Mason’s relationship developed quickly, grounded in shared goals, easy conversation, and a sense of humor that carried them through every stage of life together. Over the years, they built more than just memories; they built a home, a family, and a future.
After welcoming their dog Finley into their lives and purchasing a house together, Mason knew it was time to propose.
On December 16, he led Amanda to a quiet stone path in a nearby park while his friend Josh hid nearby, camera ready to capture the moment. The proposal itself was perfectly Mason: thoughtful, heartfelt, and slightly chaotic. In true fashion, he accidentally planned the proposal around the wrong dating anniversary month.
But as Amanda quickly learned, the details didn’t matter nearly as much as the intention behind them.
Especially because Mason had spent weeks convincing her a proposal was definitely not happening.
When he suggested taking a walk with Finley, something Amanda admits wasn’t exactly typical behavior for him. She immediately got suspicious. She even asked him directly if he was proposing. Mason denied it so convincingly that by the next morning, Amanda had completely talked herself out of the idea.
She didn’t even comb her hair.
But this time, Mason wasn’t joking.
This time, it was real.
And now, surrounded by family, friends, and the stunning scenery of one of the Finger Lakes’ most beautiful wedding venues, Amanda and Mason made that promise official.
