New York Wedding Photography - A Douglaston Manor Wedding - Chris and Christina

, ,

Happy three months to this lovely couple! Chris and Christina got married in July, starting their special day off at Trinity Lutheran Church, a beautiful historic church in Astoria, Queens. Later on, they celebrated their big day at The Douglaston Manor, where they could not keep their eyes off each other.

While the bride was preparing for her big day, the groom was getting ready at the Paper Factory Hotel. The bride's elegant bouquet was put together by Rigas Floral Mart, in Richmond Hill. Christina looked stunning on her big day, thanks to her Melissa Polito, and Maria Vlantis at Metamorphosis New York. Make You Dance Entertainment got everyone on their feet, celebrating this beautiful couple. All the magic and love was captured by NST Pictures. Christina did a wonderful job planning the wedding of her dreams, and giving us the pleasure of being there on their magical day.

Ever dreamed of a New York wedding during Christmastime?  Well Mimi and Matt had just that!  From Santas on the street to the glowing lights of Central Park, the night was truly magical!  

Their reception took place at the New York Athletic Club.  Planner, Laura Irizarry, did an incredible job of creating an intimate evening for their guests to enjoy.  And as always, Element Music, kept the bride and groom dancing the entire night!

Jessica and Kevin’s Jersey City Wedding

Jessica works in fashion and her taste is refined, elegant and perfectly understated.  She loves champagne and peonies; she knows how to balance a neutral color palate of black and white with little pops of green and pink; and she looks impeccable in that Vera Wang dress,

Nina & John’s Intimate New York Wedding

Nina & John’s Intimate New York Wedding

Nina and John had a lovely small wedding at a restaurant in New York, complete with a surprise ceremony for their guests who knew they would be celebrating Nina and John’s marriage but didn’t know that it would actually be happening before their eyes.  Before the party, they went around the South Street Seaport for some couples portraits, in spite of there being a bit of a chill in the air.

Ann-Marie and Stephen’s Manhattan Wedding

Ann-Marie and Stephen’s Manhattan Wedding

This beautiful wedding started with a ceremony at Church of St. Monica in Manhattan, followed by pictures in Central Park, Grand Central and Times Square and a reception at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers.  It was a lovely sunny day and we ended up in Times Square with Ann Marie and Stephen just at dusk when the sky was still blue and the lights were at their brightest.  I love going to Times Square with a couple.  It can be overwhelmingly crowded, bright and loud but that’s the magic of Times Square.  The lights create such a gorgeous dramatic backdrop, especially for a couple in wedding clothes.  And you really can’t get more New York than this.

Christine and Adam’s Manhattan Wedding

Christine and Adam’s Manhattan Wedding

Christine and Adam planned their wedding in two months.  That’s right: they didn’t even book Craig until a week before the event.  But you would never know by looking at it that they hadn’t spent months and months thinking about every little detail.  They were married at the Glasshouses which is a really cool loft-style location on the West side of Manhattan.  They kept things simple but elegant.  But really, do you need a lot of decoration when you have a view like that?
