Weylin Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Dixie & Eric
It all started at the Bowery Electric in the Lower East Side, when Dixie winked at Eric from across the bar during a mutual friend’s party. After she went in for the kiss and gave him her number, their destinies were set. Two years later, Dixie and Eric were engaged, sharing a home in the Upper East Side, where they enjoyed runs in Central Park, and frequent traveling. In her own words, Dixie said: “We’re not above a casual bottle of rose on a weeknight.” They wed less than three miles away from their original meeting place, just a hop across the East River at the Weylin in Williamsburg.
Manhattan City Hall Elopement - Haley & Teddy
Haley and Teddy wed on a beautiful day in October. Favoring romance over tradition, the couple had an intimate ceremony just outside city hall, before taking a glamorous and celebratory ride on the subway to their reception.

After the couple exchanged vows, they were joyfully showered in a flurry of bubbles.
Tuffet Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Rachel & Katy
Rachel and Katy celebrated their love with a restaurant wedding at the chic wine and cheese bar and event space, Tuffet, in Williamsburg. In an unexpected moment of kismet, the wall across from the restaurant sported a mural commemorating Stonewall- a beautiful nod to the couples meeting place, which neither knew existed until their wedding day. In a small courtyard in the back of the restaurant, the pair exchanged vows during an intimate ceremony. In lieu of a traditional ring bearer, their audience of family and friends each held the box of wedding rings as it was passed around during the ceremony- allowing everyone to personally bless this symbol of their union before the official “I do’s.”
87th Street Community Garden Wedding - Manhattan - Abbey & Keith
Starting with their first look outside of the Museum of Natural History, the couple made several stops on their pre-ceremony jaunt around the Upper West Side, including Shakespeare Garden in Central Park.
Soon, the pair arrived at 87th Street Community Garden, where they were welcomed by their friends and family with a champagne toast before kicking off the ceremony. The couple wed in front of a wall covered with layered, sprawling ivy, which served as an apt and artful background for a couple whose love was in full bloom.
The intimate ceremony was followed by a cozy reception at Bustan, a Middle Eastern eatery on Amsterdam Avenue. The venue’s patio offered peeks of Manhattan’s fire escapes, a tableau of industrial metals and textures which contrasted against the greenery and warmly glowing string lights of the space.
