NYC skyline Archives - Bridal Hot List

My vintage loving heart is beating pretty hard right now. It is all due to this incredible New York City wedding and some of loveliest details I have seen. This wedding is all about the details, and these details are nothing short of style, glamour, and elegance. I have to talk about the bride’s shoes for a moment. These shoes are what you call, bling bling. Oh my goodness, I can not stop staring at them. They are amazing! This gorgeous couple look like movie stars on their wedding day, and I had a hard time choosing which photos to feature, so I think I shared most of them! Thanks to Zorz Studios for capturing the true love and beauty of this couple and their wedding day. Your week is about to get it really good as we kick it off with this superb NYC vintage wedding.

Heather and Brian worked in insurance for the same big company but never actually ran into each other in the building, partly because Brian at the time worked as an outside Rep and didn’t come into the office frequently. They met each other out at a company sponsored event, after which point became inseparable.

The bride got ready at the beautiful Wythe Hotel with amazing floor-to-ceiling windows of the Manhattan skyline, and an interior staircase leading to a private terrace. Surrounded by the toile wallpaper, and beautiful exposed beams, she was in love with the space and felt completely calm and at ease getting ready with her beautiful bridesmaids.

For the ceremony, Heather wore a gorgeous lace mermaid gown which she found at The Bridal Garden, a not-for-profit bridal boutique in New York City in which all proceeds benefit education for disadvantaged children. “It was awesome to know my purchase went to such a terrific cause! I bought it off the rack and it fit me almost perfectly!” says the bride.

Brian gifted Heather a locket with a picture inside of her mom and her. Her mother had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s a few years ago and was physically not able to attend the wedding and this was extremely difficult for the bride.

We expected the heavy rain… Just as the skies opened and it started to pour, we arrived safe and dry inside Jane’s Carousel where I managed to capture the incredible moments and some of clients’ favorite pictures are of them outside in the rain!

The couple fell in love with The Green Building for its effortlessly beautiful interior and the vintage flair. The Green Building was previously a brass foundry and has beautiful original brick walls, exposed beam ceilings, gold chandeliers, and even a back speakeasy room equipped with vintage decor and red velvet curtains. Their vendors helped create a warm and intimate setting.

“The rabbi read our vows of why we wanted to marry each other, the touching vows Brian wrote brought me to tears and my favorite part during the ceremony was when Brian reached over to wipe my tears away,” says Heather. “I am Jewish and Brian Protestant, so we decided to fuse our backgrounds by incorporating an Irish ‘hand-fasting’ and a stomping of the glass, both beautiful traditions and incredibly sentimental.”

After the dinner, dancing, and cake we ended with a food truck by Wafels & Dinges which was a huge hit! Paying homage to the speakeasy theme, guests took home little bottles of whiskey.

We like our share of traditional weddings, but when a non-traditional one comes along, we are very intrigued. This intimate wedding is far from tradition, but it is not far from love and happiness. This couple shared their vows with a few guests and the New York City skyline as their backdrop. Simple, beautiful, and personal to them. This is why we love weddings. When couples make their day about them and their love. We have to talk about the gorgeous red gown the bride wore on her wedding day. Can you say WOW? This red and black corset dress is a total statement piece, and is absoultey stunning. Again, making this very unique and personal to the bride and her day. The groom is looking pretty dapper as well. His handsome attire compliments his bride’s look just perfectly. This is why we love what we do; blogging about couples and their wedding day, big or small. We love all the wedding details, but most importantly we love to see how couples celebrate their love. So, before heading out the door for the weekend, make sure to browse the amazing images from VeroLuce Photography. This gothic style wedding is totally worth viewing. We have gone through the images more than once!

It doesn’t get any better than this. I get a phone call 9 days out asking if I was available to shoot a wedding? on the Weehawken waterfront from my friend and second shooter, Boris. He and his fiance, Kristina, are definitely not your average couple. Kristina was going to be? making her own gown and he assured me it wouldn’t be white.? Knowing Boris I knew it would be VERY untraditional. They didn’t disappoint. Red and black corset, tulle everywhere, her flaming orange hair, and the warmest day of the season so far standing in the warm sun at 1’oclock. But these two crazy kids turned heads for sure. A quick 15 minute ceremony sealed the deal. No fancy reception, no dinner, just some vows, portraits and a quick drink. It’s definitely different and over the top and nothing represents them better.
