"After visiting the Federal Twisted Wineyard, we were driving along the The Delaware and Raritan Canal and came across the Prallsville Mills.
We decided to stop and explore.
It’s a historic site now used as a venue.
We walked along the path following the Delaware River."

"Stunning venue! My first time photographing a wedding here in 2022 and it is easily one of my favorites. Old school barns, historic 1700's home and mill that made for incredible photos. Simply a wonderful wedding shoot and hope to do it again soon. *Vince Foschini - Foschini Photography"
