Sophie & Mitch | The Boat House at The RiverheadWedding

Sophie & Mitch’s celebration at The Boat House in Riverhead beautifully blended personal history with elegant design. This waterfront venue provided a stunning, private setting under a century-old oak tree and even a riverside dock for those stunning bridal portraits. Their day was heartfelt and bespoke, infused with meaningful touches that elevated every moment.

A standout highlight was their use of family rings—Sophie and Mitch exchanged heirlooms from their grandparents, weaving legacy and sentiment into their ceremony . And the Ponte of collaboration continued: the couple, along with loved ones, set up the florals and décor themselves on the wedding morning—a hands-on detail that brought their vision to life and created a powerful sense of shared intimacy.

From their ceremony beneath the oak to a reception stretching across decks and indoor-outdoor flow, Sophie & Mitch’s day was thoughtfully curated and rich in both emotion and design. The Boat House’s seamless blend of rustic charm and contemporary style made it the perfect canvas

The result is a wedding that feels both effortlessly elegant and deeply personal—exactly the kind of story we love capturing.
