Celebrate at Snug Harbor
Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden sits on an eighty-three-acre campus on the north shore of Staten Island, a collection of Greek Revival, Beaux-Arts, and Italianate buildings surrounded by formal gardens. Its centerpiece for weddings is the Tuscan Garden, modeled after the Villa Gamberaia in Florence, with landscaped terraces and formal fountains.
George Pompilio photographs weddings here with a command of light, natural light by the garden’s fountains and terraces and bold off-camera flash in the soaring Great Hall, creating editorial, gallery-worthy frames. One wedding per day, always, so your celebration has his full attention from start to finish.
