Montauk is simply a magical place! The ocean, the beach town, the relaxed vibe, and its all beauty really are the perfect backdrop for any couple to fall in love. Chelsea and Ben love the Hamptons and it was really important for them to celebrate their marriage at their favorite location, Gurney’s Montauk Resort and Seawater Spa.
The bride got ready in her private suite at Gurney’s before putting on the most beautiful couture wedding gown from Mira Zwillinger. This incredible Gigi ballgown was covered with Degrade Appliquéd Flowers that looked incredible on the bride to be. Ben and his groomsmen got ready in the Regent Cocktail Club before the couple exchanged their private first look in a hidden location on the edge of the resort. It was so sweet, romantic, and special for the couple to share a few private moments with each other before the pace of the day truly picked up.
AvaFloral created the most stunning coral cascading bridal bouquet for Chelsea. We had so much fun on the beach taking their bride and groom photos and bridal party portraits. The couple held their ceremony outside on the Forward Deck overlooking the ocean just before sunset. One of Ben’s childhood best friends is also a Pastor and they asked him to officiate their wedding which was so special for the couple. As they exchanged vows, laughs, and their first kiss as husband and wife was celebrated with loud cheers of excitement by all of their guests. It was so exciting! Their wedding reception was held in the gorgeous white tent and Atomic Funk Project brought down the house. I absolutely loved being part of Chelsea and Ben’s love story from their engagement, to the wedding, and I know for many years to come. I’m so happy for this wonderful couple to enjoy being married to each other for the rest of their lives! xo

Testimonial from my wonderful couple:
“Working with Jaine was a dream. We first met during our engagement shoot, where she made us feel so comfortable during a bit of an unfamiliar experience. We were laughing the whole way through, and the photos came out fantastic! Over the course of the year leading up to our wedding, Jaine was professional, responsive, and kind. We were lucky to have her as a part of our entire wedding weekend, and she and her team made everyone involved in our wedding feel totally at ease. She is warm-hearted and was extremely organized on our wedding day, which I truly appreciated. We have received "sneak peaks" from our special day and they made us cry all over again. We cannot wait to see our full suite because we know that the photos will be BEYOND gorgeous. Lucky to have met Jaine throughout this process and know we will be in touch for a long time. ” - Chelsea and Ben
