From Castle Hill…Vast ocean views of a golden horizon with naturally elegant surroundings, stunning in their simplicity; a one-of-a-kind historic estate aged with the warmth of old-world charm; privacy of a forty-acre peninsula, a white sand beach and wooded walking trails; world-class accommodations, individual and unique; eye-catching, award-winning cuisine and our service team, welcoming and ready to host with grace. This is the legacy of Castle Hill- an inspiring array of unique possibilities guided by the seasonal beauty of the New England year. Classic summertime lawn parties and glowing galas beneath the open sky; gourmet lobster bakes on the beach in the cooling autumn eve; fireplaces warm while snow glistens and intimate promises are made…this is your day at Castle Hill. A member of the prestigious Relais &Chateaux, Castle Hill remains one of Newport’s most iconic landmarks- the epitome of  the luxurious 19th century New England seacoast life.

From Tom Wang Photography…My primary focus is centered on my bridal couples and capturing their emotions, so they can remember exactly what they were doing, feeling and thinking at that very moment. For me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing my couples re-live their wedding day memories with tears, laughter and excitement. I came from a studio background, but decided to venture off and start my own photography business. Now, I am able to expand on my creativity and artistic style. My main goals are to interact with my bridal couples on a personal level and to draw upon that to create images that is uniquely tailored to their personalities. As the holidays are approaching, I want to feel like Santa Claus! So, I am giving away a free engagement or glamour shoot in or around the NY/NJ metro area to a lucky SMP reader! Please write a comment below or email me and tell me what make you and your fiancee the cutest couple? and I will pick a winner on Dec 24, 2011!
