Manursing Island Club Wedding | Emily and Bryce

There’s something special about a shoreline wedding: cocktails by the water, colorful summer attire, a great band, and everyone gathered in one place to celebrate. For Emily and Bryce, the day also included their golden retriever as ring bearer, beach portraits at sunset, and a dance floor filled with every generation.

Emily and Bryce are the kind of couple who make people feel instantly welcome. Their wedding at Manursing Island Club in Rye, New York, reflected that same warmth, with thoughtful details and plenty of time spent with the people closest to them.

Just steps from the club, we walked down to the beach for portraits along the Rye shoreline before heading back inside for dinner. With Chef John Krall leading the kitchen, the meal was a highlight before the band brought everyone to the dance floor.

A waterfront setting, a beautiful sunset, their dog by their side, and a room full of people who couldn’t wait to celebrate them. Emily and Bryce’s Manursing Island Club wedding was a wonderful reflection of the two of them and the way they wanted to spend this day: together with their favorite people.
