Rockaway River Country Club wedding photographer

Notes for couples marrying at Rockaway River: the terrace over the course, the river through the grounds and the last light on the fairways.

The venue

A club in the hills above Denville

Rockaway River Country Club is a private golf club in the hills south of downtown Denville: a clubhouse with a terrace over the course, a ceremony lawn and the Rockaway River running through the grounds. Receptions are in the clubhouse ballroom with the course in the windows.

It is twenty-five minutes from Mauricio’s home down Route 15 and five from the I-80 hotels. The club’s staff set the portrait route on the course, and he follows it.

Mauricio hasn't published a gallery from Rockaway River Country Club yet. He scouts your venue before the day and plans the timeline around its light.

What Mauricio plans for at Rockaway River Country Club

  • Fairways hold the light

    Open fairways stay lit after the woods have gone dark, so couple portraits on the course can run right up to sunset.

  • The river and the bridges

    The river crosses the course with small bridges over it. He plans a stop there on the golf cart during cocktail hour.

  • The terrace at dusk

    The terrace looks out over the course; at dusk the sky does the work and the clubhouse lights come up behind the couple.

  • Downtown Denville nearby

    Broadway’s brick storefronts are a two-minute detour for a few frames with the wedding party if the timeline allows.
