New York Wedding Photography - A Winter Wedding Day - Mimi & Matt

We love a classic NYC wedding, especially a NYC Winter wedding. Mimi & Matt`s magical wedding is just about as timeless and "New York City" as it gets! 

The couple got ready for their big day at the classic New York Athletic Club. Mimi`s dress was a breathtaking and stunning gown by the one and only Reem Acra paired with gorgeous Christian Louboutins. Dyana Nematallah and the lovely ladies from Facetime made sure the brides hair & make-up was flawless! Before our team and the videographers from Craig William Films knew it - Mimi was off to the Church of Our Saviour to walk down the aisle and meet her future husband, Matt! 

After the couple was married at one of the most beautiful churches in the city - Mimi & Matt then surprised their guests with a hot dog cart giving away pretzels - "we just tied the knot". Right after, the two of them walked the streets of NYC and took some classic shots at Central Park. Just in line with the Holidays, the newlyweds bumped into various Santa Clauses as it was also the day of the famous SantaCon! 

Later on, the celebration kicked off with the talent of Element Music. Not to forget the beautiful creations by florist Frank Alexander. The couple was also lucky to have planner Laura Irizarry with LIG Events on their side. It was a pleasure being a part of their big day and thank you to the dream team of vendors that made their wedding so perfect!
