Riding the Waves of Life: Accursia & Matthew

What happens when your soulmate shares your deepest connection to the sea? You get a love story like Accursia and Matthew’s—a journey defined by the rhythm of the tides and the shared adrenaline of catching the perfect wave. From childhood summers spent on the East End to their current life as partners in the surf, their story is a masterclass in how shared passions create a bond as deep as the ocean.

At Ashley Film Studios, we live for this kind of cinematic storytelling—capturing the high-energy spirit and the salt-aired romance that make a relationship feel like home.

A Love Rooted in the South Fork

For Accursia and Matthew, the beaches of Long Island aren't just a location; they are the foundation of their history. Their bond is built on the things they love most:

Life in the Surf: Matthew grew up in the Southampton breaks, and while Accursia spent her summers in Sag Harbor, it wasn't until they met that she took up surfing. Now, they navigate the lineup together as true partners.
Athletic Excellence: Their relationship is fueled by a mutual respect for sport. As a Golf Professional, Matthew brings precision and passion to the green, while Accursia’s background as a competitive college cheerleaderbrings a vibrant, high-energy spirit to everything they do.
The Coastal Heritage: From their grandparents' summer homes to their own modern adventures, their lives have always been oriented toward the Atlantic.

Beyond their impressive athletic backgrounds, there is a deep, grounding magic in their connection. Whether they are paddling out at sunrise or cheering each other on in their professional pursuits, they are perfectly in sync.

A Waterfront Vow from Southampton to Westhampton

Choosing Sacred Heart Church in Southampton, NY for their ceremony provided a timeless and spiritual beginning to their marriage, rooted in the very town where Matthew’s story began.

The celebration then moved to the shore for a stunning reception at Ocean Bleu in Westhampton, NY. For a couple that lives and breathes the ocean, there was no better place to celebrate than directly on the beach. Surrounded by rolling waves and the sound of the surf, their reception was a sensory masterpiece. As Hamptons wedding videographers, we loved documenting the transition from their sacred church vows to the high-energy party on the sands—a setting that truly honored their shared love for the water.
