Oh nice! Yeah, I don’t think it’s the island. I believe there was a building on it too.

I was looking at my pics from the boat trip today on my phone, and noticed that the Cuckolds Light looked somehow "different" from other photos I've seen of it. Turns out we were passing on the opposite side of the islet from where all or most of those other pics were taken, and the keeper's house was between us and the tower. The light tower has a distinctive sort of semi-circular structure around the base of it that I think attaches to the house.
Looking at a page about lighthouses, one aerial view shows what I think is a helipad on the islet.
Wikipedia says the keeper's house was torn down some years back, but was later rebuilt and is now used for "pampered luxury" (the present owner's words) accommodations. That might have been where the wedding was.

Thank you, That could be. I don’t remember much, even though it was 2019, as I didn’t attend, I was on the mainland taking pictures. It was muddy and I was kneeling in mud snapping pictures of everyone getting on the helicopter. The Grooms father either knows someone who bought this place or he did and restored it.
