The Saphire Estate is not just a gorgeous venue, the staff and management have perfected the process of planning and executing a flawless wedding. Kayla Collins (our producer) was beyond helpful in planning, she was flexible and accommodating and I don’t think we heard the word “no” once throughout our nearly yearlong timeline. Most important of all – on the actual wedding day, we didn’t have to do a thing except enjoy ourselves! The food was phenomenal, the staff made sure all special requests were met, and they set up everything from the guest book photo station to a memorial table. The ceremony and reception were both stunning. Cannot say enough good things about Kayla and the crew at Saphire Estate! We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding.

I've been a wedding photographer on the North Fork for 10+ years and since The Halyard came on the scene it has quickly proven itself as a top event venue. Not only is the location itself like none other, literally hugging the water's edge, the food is beyond outstanding and the staff is wonderfully professional. The recent renovation under new ownership was so well done, featuring modern and nautical decor while maintaining the charm of the North Fork. The Halyard is connected with The Soundview Hotel making it a truly ideal wedding location, allowing couple's to relax without having to shuffle around on the big day. And no matter what light is given, the closeness to the sea at The Halyard ensures beautiful photos always. It's a special place on The North Fork and hands down my favorite waterfront venue.
