Tara and GR chose the North Fork of Long Island for their wedding. The ceremony was held in the beautiful Lady of Ostrabrama church and the reception at the picturesque Raphael’s vineyards.
When I first talked to Tara around Thanksgiving about her wedding plans I already knew it was going to be an amazing wedding.

Tara’s Mom helping with the finishing touches. Tara wore a custom made gown and she looked simply stunning.
The bouquets, flowers and centerpieces were the creation of Paul Rueckwald from the Down Home Country Store.
Tara and her best women, GR’s sisters, Liz and Margaret.
Tara and GR wrote their own heartfelt vows and made their guests laugh and cry.
The newlyweds at Raphael’s vineyard.
Inside of Raphael‘s is just as stunning as outside. We had a chance to take a private tour and even took some images down in the cellar.
Tara and GR had four toasts from friends and family that were touching, funny and emotional.
For their first dance the couple chose the song “Oh how happy you have made me” which was really fun, unique and showed off Tara and GR’s personality.
It was a great celebration and I was honored to be part of it. Congratulations to Tara and GR!
The couple traveled to Peru for their honeymoon.
