Gurney's Star Island Wedding Photos in Montauk, NY

From the very minute I met Megan and Dave, I knew we were going to have the best time together. They are so in love, so giving, and caring that it was a match made in heaven. We had the best time during their engagement session and the fun continued well into their wedding day at Gurney's Star Island (formerly the Montauk Yacht Club) in Montauk, NY. The couple spent many summers out in the Hamptons and Montauk was the only place they wanted to get married. 

Megan wore a breathtaking mermaid wedding dress from Monique Lhuillier and nude, crystal studded Christian Louboutin flats. Pinned to Megan's wedding bouquet was her brother's U.S. Army tag because he is on active duty servicing our country and unable to make it back to the states on leave. This was Megan's way of having him with her on her wedding day which was incredibly touching. We thank him for his service for protecting our country! Dave looked ever so handsome in his tuxedo from The Black Tux. The couple got married at  St. Therese in Montauk before we were whisked away to the Montauk Lighthouse for their bridal party photos and bride and groom portraits. The weather was supposed be clear but some how the rain showed up just as we got to the Lighthouse so we powered through the rain and took as many photos as we could before returning to Gurney's Star Island Resort  to take some fun bridal party photos in the iconic Turtle Room. It was a blast to have their closest friends pop open a can of their favorite beer from Montauk Brewery and cheers the happy couple!

The night was filled with so many wonderful and touching speeches, dances, and heartfelt happiness. It was a joy to photograph and document their wedding day!! I'm so honored to have been part of their love story and can't wait to see what life has in store for this amazing couple. Congratulations Newlyweds!! xo

Classic Hamptons Wedding at The Montauk Yacht Club

On a perfect day in the Hamptons, Catherine and Rob were married at the Montauk Yacht Club in front of their closest family and friends. The stunning bride wore the most amazing modern elegant wedding dress from Vera Wang. The groom looked ever bit the part in his custom made tuxedo from Berel and Co. and Ferragamo velvet loafers. Catherine and Rob have a wonderful sense of style and humor - they love to laugh and have a good time! The couple shared their first look at the Montauk Yacht Club before heading over the to the Montauk Lighthouse for epic portraits with sweeping views of the ocean. Rob gave Catherine a truly stunning wedding gift, a custom diamond necklace made with diamonds from his Mother's wedding ring.

Their ceremony took place outside on the great lawn at the Montauk Yacht Club just as the sun was beginning to set. It was an emotional, touching and joyous ceremony filled with so much love and laughter. Guests were treated to cocktail hour outside overlooking the bay before moving inside the Farm Ballroom for the stunning reception. Karen Lenahan Designs created a whimsical Hamptons retreat inside the ballroom with her use of greens and flowers. The Artie Stuart Band from Hank Lane Music brought the house down! Absolutely no one sat down the entire reception!! The newlyweds shared a first dance to Bruce Springsteen and danced the night away with everyone they love so much. It was such an honor to be part of such a wonderful celebration. I literally did not want to leave the dance floor at the end of the night! I'm so happy for Catherine and Rob and hope we continue to capture their lives as they grow old together! xo
