Russo Brides

Are you taking your pictures at hall or somewhere else? FH and I are getting married in church and are trying to decide if hall will be nice to take all our pictures or if we should go somewhere? Any suggestions on locations from Franklin Square to Howard Beach?

I think I'd probably want to take my pictures elsehwere. I know Russo's has a gorgeous garden area but I think it's small so I think a majority of your pictures would be inside. Russo's is a gorgeous hall but if it's a beautiful day, I would want a majority of my pictures to be outdoors.

What about driving out to Rockaway (not too far from HB) and taking pictures on the beach?

You can go to Gantry State Park in LIC (as long as you have enough time between the ceremony and reception).

We are taking our pictures before our ceremony, pictures will be at the Vanderbilt mansion in Centerport.
Where is your church located? Maybe there is a state park near by.. I have heard that some Russo's brides go into Manhattan for pictures. Would your timeline allow for something like that?
