As Amanda and Jason’s intimate Hamptons wedding attests, a gorgeous, glam and sophisticated New York wedding need not be in a big ballroom. Photographer Joshua Zuckerman captured all the love, romance, beauty {and style!} of this magical, family-only fete at LongHouse Reserve , a beautiful sculpture garden in East Hampton. We’re thrilled to share the details with you.

From the Photographer, Joshua Zuckerman: Amanda and Jason live in Manhattan, but have spent every summer they’ve been together in the Hamptons, so it holds many memories for them. It was a perfect fit for the intimate, yet sophisticated wedding they wanted to plan.
Amanda went to East Hampton in the winter and even though the grounds were snow covered and the trees were bare, she knew instantly that LongHouse Reserve was exactly what she was looking for. When it came time to pull it all together, they engaged wedding planner Jill Gordon and team, who are known for creating stylish, tasteful events with the Hamptons best vendors.
Since they decided to have a family-only wedding {40 people total}, they wanted everyone to be seated at one long table instead of many small tables. Typically the bride and groom would be seated in the middle of the long table but the couple chose to sit next to each other at the head of the table so they could really see all of our guests and savor the evening.
For the table, Amanda wanted lots of low flowers arrangements in different colors {pink, white, purple and apple green} and different kinds of vases, with lots of candlelight, all on top of a mirrored charger that ran the length of the table. In addition, votive candles were hung from the ceiling of the summer living room. The result was romantic and breathtaking… Jill Gordon flawlessly executed the event and made sure everything came together just as Amanda and Jason expected.
The grounds were gorgeous to photograph with a great back drop with the sculptures and landscape. It’s always a pleasure to be part of such an intimate affair and be able to capture portraits of every single person and so many great moments.
