Four Seasons Hotel Wedding: Emily and Leon
Emily and Leon had a New York wedding in spring, the same season as when they first started dating. I loved their elegant and timeless style, and the addition of sweet little whimsical touches. Her Monique Lhuillier gown had an intricately beaded bodice and a full ballgown skirt with an asymmetric gather. Emily hand illustrated the save the date herself! She often drew a cartoon bear and lion to represent them as a couple and this illustration made its way to the formal invitation and the Eleni's cookie favours. Blossom and Branch brought spring to the inside of the Four Seasons Hotel with towering cherry blossoms and romantic peonies everywhere, including coral charms, which are such show stoppers. I particularly loved their wedding cake from Nine Cakes with a gold accent tier and a cascade of loose cherry blossoms tinged in gold falling down the cake. Thank you to Brian Hatton for capturing their sweet day!
Gotham Hall Wedding
Rachel and Mike were married on a beautiful sunny day in March. They lucked out with lovely warm weather, which allowed for dreamy portraits just outside the American Museum of Natural History. Right around the corner from where Rachel grew up on the Upper West Side. Their ceremony and reception took place at Gotham Hall, where Fleurs brought such an elegant, classic and glamourous touch.
New York Public Library Wedding
There is nothing quite like a New York Public Library wedding. The majestic building is simply breathtaking. Marti looked a vision in a custom Ulla Maija Anna Maier gown holding a striking bouquet of only deep red peonies as she married Rod in the dramatic Astor Hall. We used ghost chairs for the ceremony. With beautiful lighting from Levy Lighting, it really let the room and architectural details shine. The corridor was lined with glass globes filled with tea lights to lead guests to Celeste Bartos where they dined and danced under a starry night.
