We first met Briana and Dan at a wedding at Nikki Beach in Miami and instantly connected — their warmth and energy were impossible to forget. So when Briana reached out after getting engaged, we were beyond excited to be part of their story. Their wedding at the Ram’s Head Inn was the kind of weekend that lingers in your memory — coastal breezes, golden light, and a celebration that felt deeply personal and full of heart. Every detail reflected their easy elegance and the genuine joy they share, creating a day as beautiful as their connection.
The Ram’s Head Inn — Shelter Island, NY
Perched on the quiet shores of Shelter Island, The Ram’s Head Inn is a historic waterfront estate known for its sweeping views of Peconic Bay, timeless New England charm, and secluded, private atmosphere. The property carries a classic East Coast coastal elegance—weathered wood architecture, expansive lawns rolling toward the water, and soft maritime light that shifts beautifully throughout the day.
The inn feels intentionally removed from the pace of the mainland, offering a sense of stillness that makes weddings feel intimate and deeply personal. Ceremonies often unfold on the waterfront lawn with open horizon views, followed by receptions that move between garden spaces, tented setups, and the warm interior of the historic inn.
With its understated luxury and natural coastal surroundings, The Ram’s Head Inn is ideal for couples drawn to refined simplicity, ocean air, and a setting that feels both nostalgic and cinematic.
