My husband and I LOVE their wedding photography ! We booked with them a year and a half before our wedding. We have enjoyed working with the team ever since. Lighthouse Photography has always been prompt with responses and any thing else we need! They were so professional. They were so genuinely excited on our wedding . We have only seen teasers from our wedding pictures thus far, but they are absolutely beautiful. We KNOW we will be impressed with all of the pictures and the video. I would recommend them to my friends, my family, to every one!! They are the Best Long Island Wedding Photographers.

Kelly Anne, 5-31-2013 - WeddingWire.com

Absolutely love Lighthouse !!! Monica was always so fantastic to work with. Our main photographer was Joe. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and he made the shoot super fun. For our wedding we got to work with Joe again. This time Kevin joined as our second photographer. Needless to say we couldn't have picked a better team to capture our wedding photos - this is the best team on Long Island !!!

Maria 6-3-2017 - WeddingWire.com

Florio and his team were so incredible. He got everything we were looking for and we had so much fun on our wedding. Above all our wedding pictures are absolutely stunning. And I haven't been able to stop looking at them. So many of our friends have said they are some of the most beautiful wedding pictures they've ever seen. I would recommend them a million times over!

Shannon, 5-20-2017 -WeddingWire.com

We booked them 18 months before our August wedding. It has such a dream to work with them. From the first meeting, to our engagement to our wedding pictures, thank you cards, video, they made the entire process as easy and stress-free as possible. Monica and I were in contact often. She is sweet, professional, punctual and a delight to work with! Florio has a vibrant personality and sense of humor. He made it easy during both, our engagement photos and on our wedding. They did a great job not only of capturing our wedding perfectly, but also keeping us on time. We were so happy with the way our pictures came out ! We made the best decision in booking the best wedding photographers for our wedding!

Christina, 8-21-2015 - WeddingWire.com

We booked this company after working with Florio in another wedding my husband and I were in. We were lucky enough to have Florio and Luis. They were both very professional, fast, perfectionists, and passionate. They made sure the shots and lighting were exquisite. Besides taking special requests all day long and capturing all the moments one would want on their wedding, they were a lot of fun to work with. Besides actually getting married the photographer is the most important part of the wedding as they will capture the moments you'll cherish for life and look back upon. They made sure to be efficient without rushing . We are looking forward to seeing the memories captured by these amazing artists !!!! - Rob and Lindsey Semprini

Lindsey, 9-26-2017 - The Knot

Absolutely adore Lighthouse Photography !! They came highly recommend by a few friends of ours. We were not dissapointed. We knew from the moment we met them that we wanted them for our wedding. Monica and Florio were so welcoming. We really vibed with them both. My January winter wedding was nothing short of magical and the lighthouse team played a huge part in that! And we are forever grateful ! The best wedding photographers.

Cherish, 2-12-2017 - The Knot


This is one of the best decisions we've made throughout the wedding planning process. From the start, Monica was a pleasure to work with to design the perfect photography and videography package for us. She stayed involved throughout the entire planning process. More than helping schedule our engagement shoot and coordinating the day-of schedule for our wedding, she was there thought the process. I cannot say enough wonderful thing about Florio. His expertise is obvious and his outgoing personality and enthusiasm were infectious. When we received our wedding photos less than two months after the wedding we were thrilled. They beautifully captured the best day of our lives. Thank you again for providing us with a means to relive the most magical day over and over again.

Outside, it is surrounded by beautifully manicured grounds and a waterfront view that are great for wedding photography or staging a romantic first look. We can’t pick a favorite photo spot here, the tree-lined walks or the circular drive to the wide green lawns, literally every part of the Bourne Mansion is wedding photography perfection!

There are not too many spots on Long Island more beautiful than the Larkfield Manor. Located on the North Shore, walking into Larkfield is like having a private Tuscan villa of your very own.

Here, soaring wood ceilings tower over stone floors, stone pillars surround outdoor terraces, and staircases are decorated with curling, old-fashioned metalwork. In the spring, fountains splash in secluded courtyards while flowers climb up the buildings made of sun-warmed stone. In the winter, the terraces are covered with fluffy drifts of white snow and ice sparkles on the miniature bridges.

The venue was completed in 1918 as the Long Island residence of millionaire philanthropist Alfred DuPont.

During the 20th century, it was owned by many of the leading luminaries in American and international business society.

At first glance, it may seem a bit odd to get married in a building that houses offices of the NYIT.

As soon as you look at it you realize that this stately turn of the century mansion is anything but odd.

It’s one of the most charming venues on Long Island.

Oheka Castle

Oheka Castle wedding photographer

Marrying in a French castle should be impossible without flying to Europe… but what if we told you it wasn’t? What if we told you that you could get married in a chateau of your very own at Oheka Castle, right on Long Island’s Gold Coast?

This stunning mansion has been dazzling guests for nearly 100 years. Oheka Castle was built in 1919 for the celebrated financier and arts patrol Otto Hermann Kahn as a luxurious getaway home where he could host the sort of parties that you find in the pages of The Great Gatsby -- in fact, Oheka was one of the inspirations for the 2013 Gatsby movie! Today, it is on the National Register of Historic Places and has hosted a century of celebrities from Charlie Chaplin to Heidi Klum. It is known as one of the most historic hotels and prestigious wedding venues in the world.

One look at estate and grounds and you’ll understand exactly why it is so famous. The mansion in a dreamy mix of French classical architecture and Art Nouveau elegance. You’ll wander under towering ceilings, up marble staircases, and into a majestic ballroom that can accommodate 400 guests for a sit down dinner -though the entire space can host 1,000 people for a Gatsby-style, ongoing event!

Outside, you might think you’ve wandered into the grounds at Versaille as you stroll through formal gardens and across a sprawling lawn, or stop to admire yourself in the reflecting pool and enjoy the fountains. In winter, the estate becomes an icy wonderland, blanketed with snow. A wedding here will undoubtedly be a dream event. We can’t wait to see yours!

This is one of the most grandiose places for a wedding.

Old Field Club


It seems like a contradiction to describe a wedding venue as “rustic” and “elegant” at the same time, but that’s exactly what comes to mind when you see the Old Field Club. Located just sixty miles east of Manhattan on the North Shore of Long Island, this pretty spot is one of the best kept secrets in wedding locations.

The Old Field Club has nearly a century behind it. It was originally founded by the Melville family in 1929. The space has all the historical charm you would expect. The pretty white buildings are surrounded by a long porch and manicured grounds, making you feel like you’ve stepped back into an era a summer parties and lawn tennis. Inside, a row of chandeliers hangs from the original barn-style rafters. Wood floors provide the perfect spot for dancing the night away.

If you’ve always dreamed of an outdoor wedding, the Old Field Club has the great spot. A paved patio ends in a classical white cupola. If the weather’s a little stormy or cold, though, you can just as easily have your ceremony inside, saying your vows in front of the beautiful old stone fireplace.

We love how close this spot is to the shore. A few steps is all it takes to find yourself on the waterfront. With sparkling water, bright sun, and endless blue sky behind your, it’s the right place for photographing a special moment between two lovebirds. We can’t wait to take you here!

This is a wonderful North Shore Long Island wedding venue.

Riviera at Massapequa



Nestled up against the edge of Long Island’s South Shore, the Riviera at Massapequa has been hosting amazing events for nearly 100 years.

Originally known as the Peninsula Golf and Country Club, the Riviera opened in 1926. Throughout the Roaring Twenties, it served as a gathering spot for Long Island’s elite, before being sold to the Karras family in 1946. Since then, they’ve perfected the art of throwing a wedding.They are ready to bring that perfection to your special day.

When you’re at the Riviera at Massapequa, you don’t feel as if you’re at a typical country club. Though the space is unbelievably beautiful, there’s something a little more casual about it, a little more playful, modern elegance tempered with historic charm. The banquet hall is a masterpiece of exposed brick walls in the banquet hall, sweeping timber ceilings, and wrought-iron balconies. Outside, beautifully landscaped gardens wind towards a whimsical gazebo. Lush green lawns slope down to wooden piers that line the water.

In fact, it’s amazing location right on the water might be the best part of the Riviera at Massapequa. Whether you want to get married with the bay stretching out behind you, steal away for waterfront pictures on the terrace, or simply watch the sun go down through panoramic windows, it’s truly a fantastic spot for a wedding day.
