Say “I Do” by the Water
Your vows on Morris Cove, with open sky above and the people you love beside you.
Vows, cocktails and the first dance, all on the water.
At Amarante’s Sea Cliff, your ceremony takes place steps from Long Island Sound, with Morris Cove as the backdrop for your vows and your first photographs as newlyweds.
When the ceremony ends, no one has to get back in a car. Cocktail hour and your reception are right here, in a private building and deck reserved for your party alone.
The water sets the scene. The details are yours.
Bring the florals, music and traditions that feel like the two of you. Our team will help plan the setup so the space is ready when you arrive.

Florals, greenery and aisle accents that frame the view without competing with it.
Music
A processional and recessional chosen for the moment you walk in, and the moment you walk out married.

Personal vows, a favorite reading, or words from the people closest to you.
