What’s not to love about a Glen Island Harbour Club wedding? This is one of my favorite wedding locations in Westchester County, and there are so many reasons why. The setting is just so breathtaking, and there are dozens of beautiful spots for portraits. The park is on an island in New Rochelle, NY. The Harbour Club, with two ballrooms, a garden, and a cocktail terrace/patio, has been there for decades.
This particular wedding day started with the bride & groom getting ready at a hotel before driving to the Harbour Club.
Mom helping with the finishing touches.
These two are all smiles when Dad sees the bride in her wedding dress.
Anna & her dad took a limo to the wedding.
I love having a few minutes for portraits of the bride with her dad early in the day. You can tell they have a special bond.
The bridal suite at the Harbour Club has such lovely light for portraits of the bride. This bouquest is stunning. LOVE the artichoke!
First look in the bridal suite before going outside for some portraits.Walking in the park is ideal for a sweet & simple wedding portrait. So many fantasic spots for portraits in the park! I especially love this image of the bride & groom with the Harbour Club and Long Island Sound in the background.
After “bride & groom” portraits, it was time for the “family formals” & portraits with the wedding party.
Here we have the entire wedding party, including the kiddos.
It’s ok to have some fun with these portraits.
The ceremony room at the Harbour Club has panoramic windows, with a view of the park and the Long Island Sound.
The soft light right around sunset is spectacular for romantic portraits.
The ballroom is lit with pink & purple uplighting, to create a festive atmosphere. I love the elegant white & gold theme, mixed with the purple flowers.Let’s get this party started!Reactions to the speeches always provide an opportunity for great images.
Parent dances are one of my favorite parts of any wedding day.
