Wolffer Estate Wedding : Kristin & Mike : Sagaponack, NY
Kristin & Mike were married in early Summer at Wolffer Estate Vineyard in The Hamptons.
There’s something undeniably magical about a summer wedding in The Hamptons—the salt-tinged breeze, the golden glow of the setting sun, and the effortless elegance of a black-tie affair set against the coastal charm of cedar-shingled estates and sprawling vineyards. This wedding, held at the historic Most Holy Trinity Parish in East Hampton and followed by a stunning reception at Wolffer Estate Vineyard, embodied that timeless sophistication while weaving in the couple’s deep love for their summers spent out East.
The couple envisioned a classic, elegant summer soirée, with a color palette of light blue, cream, and sage accented by mixed metallics. Their florals, designed by Honeysuckle & Roses, were a lush combination of peonies and hydrangeas, evoking the effortless romance of a Hamptons garden in full bloom. Guests arrived dressed in black-tie optional attire, with the wedding party donning sharp tuxedos, perfectly complementing the refined yet relaxed atmosphere of the day.
After a heartfelt ceremony, the newlyweds and their guests made their way to the breathtaking Wolffer Estate Vineyard, where rows of grapevines and the soft light of dusk created an unforgettable ambiance. The tablescapes, thoughtfully designed with elegant stationery from Paper Treasures, shimmered under the warm glow of Matt Murphy Lighting, setting the stage for an evening filled with fine dining, laughter, and celebration.
Stone Creek Inn curated a menu that highlighted the best of Hamptons summer cuisine—fresh oysters, chilled wine, and an array of seasonal delicacies that perfectly complemented the vineyard setting. As the evening unfolded, music from Current Affair filled the air, keeping the dance floor alive as guests toasted to the couple’s new beginning.
The bride, stunning in a Carolina Herrera gown and Loeffler Randall heels, exuded timeless grace. Her bridesmaids, dressed in flowing Amsale gowns, stood by her side, while the groom, looking sharp in Suit Supply, completed the elegant vision. Every detail, from the delicate rings by Daniels Jewelry to the flawless beauty styling by Elite Bridal Beauty, came together to create a wedding that felt both effortless and refined.
Captured on film by Ashley Film Studios, the day unfolded like a love letter to the Hamptons—a celebration of romance, tradition, and the simple joy of a summer well spent.

Westhampton Country Club Wedding : Allie & Lisa : Westhampton, NY
Lisa & Allie were married in June on the East End of Long Island at the lovely Westhampton Country Club. I seem to make it to The Hamptons or The North Fork at least once every year for a wedding and I really enjoy the change of pace.
With Allie at her family’s home and Lisa in an amazing nearby Airbnb, they got ready with their cherished friends and family before we head to Westhampton Beach for a first look. The fantastic Hamptons wedding planner Claire Bean knows Allie’s family intimately having arranged numerous events for them and was an indispensable part of making this day as perfect as it was. The beach was pretty quiet that day thankfully so we had the run of the place capturing portraits of the ladies, bridal party and their families. Once we made it to the ceremony, the rest of the day was just about being part of a great party. The sun was dancing in and out of the clouds while we were at the beach which gave us a lot of variety. The cloud cover makes for soft flattering images no matter what you do while the direct sun livens and adds tons of depth.
Moving over to the country club, Allie & Lisa’s dads gave their toasts mid ceremony which was a fun twist and personalized what can sometimes be a typical matter of going through the paces to get married. The golf course was a wide expansive setting for both the ceremony and cocktails and guests were free to drift under cover or out onto the green as they enjoyed a cocktail and bite to eat before settling down for the reception.
45 Riots was at the bandstand that night which always means a good time and they really turned up the heat. But nothing compared to the moment Lisa took the stage and performed a number with the band as confetti was thrust over the dance floor. Truly an amazing moment to be a part of! It can be bittersweet to reach the end of the night after spending months chatting with a couple, photographing their engagement session and then capturing the main event and that certainly was the case here. Congrats to the bride and bride!
