Grand windows, glowing chandeliers, and lush gardens make Old Tappan Manor a favorite stop for our New York wedding photographers. This mansion style venue sits in Old Tappan, New Jersey, in Bergen County. It is an easy trip from New York City. Yet it feels calm, quiet, and set apart from the busy city streets.

The ballroom is the star of the show. High arched Palladian windows let in soft light. Cut crystal chandeliers sparkle overhead. Classic columns and carved details give the room an old world feel. In the center, an inlaid marble and granite dance floor waits for your first dance. The venue can host close to 300 guests, so large families fit comfortably.

Outside, the grounds are just as lovely. Manicured gardens surround the building, and a waterfall in the back makes a beautiful backdrop for portraits. The venue hosts one event at a time, so couples never share the spotlight. Guests get a polished, upscale experience from cocktail hour to the last song. For our team, the mix of elegant indoor spaces and green gardens gives us so many options.

Lauren and Vincent’s Classic Manor Wedding

Lauren and Vincent planned a day that was timeless, loving, and classy. Their colors ranged from dark burgundy to soft lighter pinks. That gradient of color feels romantic and elegant at the same time. It looks beautiful against white columns and crystal light.

Their wedding had a Catholic theme, with faith at the heart of their celebration. Their gallery was edited in our airy style. Airy editing keeps images bright, soft, and full of light. It is a perfect match for a ballroom with big windows and sparkling chandeliers.

Our photography team is based in New York, and we serve couples across the entire state of New York. We also love crossing the river for weddings in New Jersey. From city rooftops to country estates, we know how to make every space shine. A great wedding photographer helps you feel comfortable, so your smiles look natural and your moments feel real.

Ballroom weddings come with so many beautiful details. We love capturing the table settings, the flowers, and the way the light plays across the room. We also make time to step outside for garden portraits. The waterfall and green lawns give your gallery a fresh, natural feel. That balance of indoor glamour and outdoor beauty makes a gallery truly special.

We also pay close attention to the people in the room. A mom fixing a veil. A best friend wiping away a tear. A grandparent dancing with a grandchild. Those are the moments that mean the most years later, and we never want to miss them.

Original Weddings has a team of New York wedding photographers who love classic, elegant celebrations. We watch for honest moments, like a nervous smile before the ceremony or a happy shout during the grand entrance. Those little moments tell the real story of your day. When a wedding happens outside the city, our team is glad to travel. We often head to Long Island, Westchester, the Hudson Valley, Northern New Jersey, and Connecticut. We also scout each venue so we know where the best light will fall. Every location gives us something new to love.

We keep the photo experience relaxed and fun. Our photographers give clear directions and help you feel at ease in front of the camera. Family photos stay organized so no one waits too long. We work closely with your planner and the venue team to keep the timeline running smoothly. We arrive early, stay calm, and handle surprises with a smile.

We love the energy that a big, happy crowd brings to a wedding day, and we make sure every table gets its moment in your gallery.

New York Wedding Videographers at Old Tappan Manor

Original Weddings also has a team of New York wedding videographers who capture your day in full motion. Video brings back the sound of your vows, the cheers during your entrance, and the music that filled the ballroom. Those are details that photos alone cannot hold. Our videographers travel across New York and nearby areas, including Long Island, Westchester, and Northern New Jersey. We love filming everything from city lofts to grand estates.

We film quietly and blend in with your guests, so every moment stays natural. After the wedding, our team shapes the best parts of the day into a film that feels like a love story on screen. We also capture small details, like the sparkle of the chandeliers and the rush of the waterfall. Many couples watch their film on every anniversary. Original Weddings would be honored to create that keepsake for you. We also add soft music so the film feels just like the day did.
