I really wanted wedding pictures on the beach, but I live in Queens and the reception is at Jericho Terrace, so the beaches are REALLY far (unless there's a closer one that I don't know of) and I'm scared its going to be too long of a ride. Where is everyone else taking their pics?

What about Belle Harbor/Rockaway beach. During the summer its VERY crowded from 116-130 but hten if you head into nuponsit, you can have a basically empty beach...
Just take the marine parkway bridge. I grew up tehre and I love it.. The beach also has white sand.
We were going there but fh wants the 'historic' pictures of coney islands board walklol

i wanted to go to a location BUT its hard bc december will probably be freezing out - i think we are just going to ask JT how early we can go in before our ceremony and just do all of our pics there - our ceremony is at 6 - im hoping we can get in there a few hours before that but im not sure....
How about Fort Totten... it's right off the cross island pkwway which takes u right to jericho tpke. The bridge is gorgeous.

Ur welcome... plus there's the walking trail... there's a lot of lil places to take pics. I'm thinking of taking my pics there if it's not too cold that day cuz i'm at Floral Terrace and there's not grounds to take outdoor pics.

I live in Queens and my RH is very close to yours. I am having the same concerns. I liked Long Island City and you get the city skyline but I am still trying to come up with more ideas. Old Westbury Gardens is always an option (my sis took her piks there so I am not crazu abpout doing the same thing). Hopefull the girls give us some good ideas!
I was thinking about Old Westbury Gardens, but on their website it says you can't go in after 4:00, is that for Brides too? I might give them a call tomrrow. Do you know how much they charge?
At first I didn't realyl want to go the whole 'garden' route, but I feel there might not be many more options????
