The Estate at Florentine Gardens
The Estate at Florentine Gardens is a Georgian-style mansion set on four manicured acres in River Vale, in northern New Jersey. Family-owned and operated for over three decades, it pairs winding brick pathways, fountains, and stone gazebos outside with a recently renovated grand ballroom inside. It's one of the most photogenic estates in Bergen County — a venue where the gardens and the architecture do half the work.
George Pompilio photographs weddings at Florentine Gardens with the off-camera flash work that has placed him among the top wedding photographers in the region. From an emotional first look in the gardens to a dramatic night portrait under the estate's lights, he shoots one wedding per day so your celebration has his full, undivided attention.
