Danielle and Zachary’s wedding day was one of those unforgettable Long Island stories—elegant, heartfelt, and yes, a bit stormy. A classic Nor’easter was in the forecast, but somehow, the rain held off just when it mattered most. From their joyful church exit to dreamy car photos, they lucked out in the best way. From the moment the day began to their final twirl on the dance floor, they embraced every moment.
A Cozy Morning at Home
Both Danielle and Zachary got ready at their homes, surrounded by their favorite people. There’s something extra special about prepping for your wedding day in the space where you feel most like yourself—it adds a layer of calm before all the big emotions. The weather outside might’ve been gray, but inside, everything felt warm and full of light.
A Classic Ceremony at Saint James Church
The ceremony took place at the historic Saint James Church in East Setauket—a timeless setting filled with love and tradition. Danielle looked stunning in her gown from Blu Rayne Bridal, and Zachary’s smile said it all as she walked down the aisle.
And in a twist of perfect timing—the rain held off! The couple was able to have their big church exit, full of cheers and happy tears, and sneak in some romantic photos with their wedding car before the skies opened up again. It was like nature was giving them a little window just for the magic.
A Joyful Reception at The Watermill
From the church, everyone headed over to The Watermill, one of Long Island’s classic venues. With its grand interiors and warm atmosphere, it was the perfect place to cozy up as the rain finally rolled in. But inside, it was nothing but candlelight, music, and celebration.
