Wedding Day Pictures - WHERE?

I am getting married in a Church in Southampton and the reception is at the Bourne Mansion in Oakdale. We have two hours between the church and the reception and wanted to go to a beach to take pictures. However, I didn't want to go anywhere with crowds of people. Anyone know of any good, secluded beaches between Southampton and Oakdale?

Any other ideas for pictures?

Thanks!

Bourne Mansion is beautiful itself or Dowling College is amazing (but I think you have to be alumni)..

I am having the same issue but for Nassau County..

There is also a park nearby - I think It's called Bayard park or something like that. I saw it in Modern Brides. Good Luck with everything this weekend! I can't wait to hear about how the Bourne Masion was and see pics!

Congrats!!

Yes, the Bayard Cutting Arboretum is just a few minute drive from the Bourne and it is sooo beautiful there! (The Bourne was one of my top choices!)

Here's the address:
PO Box 466
Oakdale, NY 11769
(631) 581-1002

I would call them right away to see if you need to make a reservation or anything to take pictures there.

Good luck!

We're taking pictures at the Arboretum too! It is beautiful there.

go to the Bayard Arboretum in Oakdale.

We took our wedding pictures there and they came out BEAUTIFUL!! The only charge is $3 per car. There are beautiful pathways and its right on the water so you will get some nice shots there also.

Here is a website with more info.

Good Luck!!
