The Inn at Longshore Wedding Photography & Videography
Featured VenueNewport, Boston and beyond.
The Inn at Longshore is a historic waterfront inn in Westport, Connecticut, with a lawn that runs right down to Long Island Sound. Move Mountains Co. photographed Garrett + Caleigh's winter wedding here: a church ceremony, chilly but beautiful portraits by the water and a warm, packed reception in the Grand Ballroom.
A winter wedding on the Sound
The Inn is at 260 Compo Road South in Westport. The Grand Ballroom has water views, chandeliers and terrace access, and its curved wall of windows looks out over the lawn. Outside, the grass edges the Sound, with tall evergreens and a long stone path for portraits in any season.
Garrett + Caleigh braved the cold for every portrait, and the Inn at Longshore team made the inside feel cozy and festive. We'd love to photograph many more weddings here.
Move Mountains Co. has photographed and filmed weddings across Newport, Boston and beyond for 10 years. We're a preferred vendor at 100+ New England venues, a ten-time The Knot Best of Weddings winner and a member of The Knot Hall of Fame.
