The nationally recognized clubhouse offers seemingly endless photo opportunities in its expansive outdoors from spring through late fall, especially at the elegant White Terrace, overlooking the rolling green fairways. The luxurious Living Room inside offers a comfy space for you and your guests to mingle along with an inviting fireplace for your cocktail hour. With windows and a terrace that overlooks the 18th green, the Cocktail Lounge offers an alternative space to share some moments of joy with your darling or pose for some candid pictures of the day.

Here comes the artistic vision of our photo experts as to how they inculcate your special moments into your wedding album. Because the day will pass and your guests will leave but the thing that will remain with you for the rest of your life is the sweet memory of your beloved that you can recall every second day by revisiting these pictures.

And they will scream with joy, “ Oh nana, you were looking so beautiful as a bride”! Pretty nostalgic! Isn’t it? So, let these dreamy thoughts be alive at your real wedding at Longue Vue Club.
