Lauren was an absolute life-saver throughout our wedding journey. Her organization is truly a superpower. I have genuinely never seen anything like it. From timelines to vendor coordination to small details I never even thought about, she handled everything with a level of care and precision that eased so many of my anxieties. She worked with every vendor on the day of the wedding, coordinated absolutely everything, and took literally every task off my hands. She also helped bring our décor to life so beautifully. Knowing she was behind the scenes handling it all allowed me to be fully present and actually enjoy the day. Any time even the smallest issue came up, Lauren handled it instantly, calmly, and with such confidence that I felt completely supported. She reassured me at every turn and made the entire experience feel so much lighter. I honestly do not know what I would have done without her. On the wedding day, Lauren and her husband were phenomenal. They made sure everything ran smoothly so my husband and I could focus on celebrating. Her husband even helped bustle my dress, which was so kind and so helpful. I tell every newly engaged couple the same thing: get a coordinator, whether it is month-of or day-of, because it will completely transform your wedding experience. And if you are lucky enough to work with Lauren and City and Terrace, you are in the best possible hands. She is the one you want by your side

From the moment I reached out to FacebyAnastasia, I felt immediately at ease and trusted her vision. Anna’s down-to-earth and jovial personality made me feel comfortable right away. As someone who doesn't often wear makeup, I was concerned about it being too heavy, but she perfectly balanced a natural and subtle look while making me feel beautiful. A wedding day can be stressful, but Anna's calm demeanor, affirmations, and light humor made the experience effortless. Plus she is truly a whiz at color theory— she matched my exact skin tone adjusting and mixing colors . I cannot recommend FacebyAnastasia highly enough.

Long Island City, NY
  • Florist

Imagination Enthusiasts. Party Animals. Sustainability Focused. Foam-Free Floristry. Bespoke designs curated to create custom works of floral art. We aim to work alongside clients to bring an unexpected mix of on trend designs and elegant classic styles. Whether it be an intimate gathering after City Hall or the event of the season, we can't wait to design something special and tailored to you!

I don’t know what magic Fern Botanica puts into their flowers, but they delivered the most impressive array of bouquets I’d ever seen in my whole life. We ordered bouquets a la carte from them (two bridal and 16 bridesmaids!), and gave them a color palette and inspiration image to work from—and I cannot even believe how stunning the result was. Our budget was limited, so we reused the bouquets as centerpieces for the tables, and Fernies also helped us figure out the best size vases, so we could transition them easily. Also, we were gifted flower preservation, and the artist immediately asked who our florist was because she was so impressed by the flowers. That’s how you know it’s good. I will absolutely be using them again for everything from causal arrangements to special events. The team there has such an incredible eye and style, they did all the heavy lifting, and we got to enjoy the rewards of people complimenting our beautiful flowers. Win/win.

Our wedding at Ravel was nothing short of extraordinary. From our very first phone call with Eman to the very last dance, the entire team made us feel supported, celebrated, and completely at ease. Our wedding planner, Eman, was an absolute star. Her organization, creativity, and calm presence kept everything on track. She understood our vision from day one and executed every detail flawlessly. We truly could not have asked for a better guide throughout this journey. My bridal attendant, Mrianda, was a lifesaver. She anticipated every need before I even had to ask — fixing my dress, keeping me hydrated, calming my nerves, and making sure I felt beautiful and comfortable all day long. Her kindness and attentiveness made a world of difference. A special thank-you goes to Anna and Joe, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the entire day ran smoothly. Whether it was coordinating timing, helping guests, or managing transitions, they handled everything with professionalism and genuine care. We felt so well taken care of, and our families noticed too. The venue itself is stunning — from the views, THE VIEWS, to the ambiance to the seamless flow of each part of the celebration. But what truly sets The Ravel apart is its incredible team. They made our wedding not just beautiful, but stress-free and joy-filled. Our guests were talking about our wedding for weeks after. All raving about the views, food, cocktail hour, and the overall incredible time they had. If you’re considering Ravel for your big day, do it. You’ll be treated like family, your vision will be brought to life, and you’ll walk away with memories that feel nothing short of magical.

  • Starts at $595

I believe that a wedding ceremony should be more than just words. It should feel like home. A moment so personal and full of love that it stays with you forever. That’s what I create for every couple I marry. I’m not just an officiant - I’m your friend, your guide, and your biggest cheerleader. I’ll be there to steady your nerves, share a laugh, and remind you to soak it all in. Because your love story is one-of-a-kind, and your ceremony should be too.

We got married October 3rd 24 and struggled trying to find the right person to officiate our day until we came across Jackie and really cannot recommend her enough! From the moment we started chatting she was the utmost professional to every email, enquiry or worry we may have had she squashed easily. The communication was great from the off and I knew we made the right choice! We utilised the services of both Jackie and her husband the photographer Sascha Reinking with their All in One Package and it was the best decision we made for the day! She talked us through every process for the marriage license and met us for the appointment! Had recommendations on locations and great guidance on our vows and the ceremony which she performed so so beautifully! They took the weight and pressure off so much of the day and made it so easy. I implore everyone to reach out to her, and her husband Sascha, to discuss how they can make your day even more special. It truly worked for us and we met people who we loved being a part of our day!

We had our wedding on the rooftop of Greats of Craft in September. We COULD NOT be happier with how the event turned out!!! First and foremost, Joe & Stella are awesome to work with - such friendly and genuine people. They made the planning process as stress-free as it could be, by being communicative, dependable, and accommodating. We already loved the venue, but meeting with them made it an easy decision to choose GoC. We held a mini-ceremony and the reception on the rooftop for 60 people. We wanted it to be less formal (like an “elevated party”) but still trendy, and GoC checked all the boxes. The vibes and setting were PERFECTION: the backdrop of the Queensboro Bridge at dusk for our ceremony; cute string lights with a brick wall and large screen for our slideshow, perfect weather, plenty of room for people to mingle, sit down to eat, and dance. The ENTIRE GoC team/staff were amazing. They were attentive, friendly, and took great care of us and all of our guests. Shout out to Trey and Eddie!! We went with in-house catering for the food - Chef Chris is the best and everything tasted delicious!!! We got SO many compliments on the food from our guests. We still continue to rave about GoC being such a gem of an event space. Trying to find a reasonably-priced, high-quality wedding venue in NYC is difficult and sometimes discouraging. We feel so fortunate that we were able to have our wedding celebration here, it felt like a complete DREAM!!! Thank you, Joe & Stella and the whole GoC crew!!

Serving the New York area since 1991, Steven Brown Caterers provides unmatched creative cuisine, professional service and exceptional value. Our individual approach means that our couples receive the personalized and dedicated touch they deserve for their big day! Our experienced team of event planners are extremely passionate about their work. Attentive and precise, they will make your vision, big, or small into a reality.

“In my position as the assistant to the Chairman & Founder of a Fortune 1000 company, Steven Brown Caterers is the only caterer we use. Over the years the entire company from the chefs to the wait staff, to the management have become so much more than co-workers. I count them all as friends. So, when I married Frank in 2013, there was no question about who would be coming to spoil me on that special day. The food has always been the best in the city, but food is different things to different people, so I was anxious to see if my guests enjoyed it as much as I always have. That question was answered when half of them left clutching their contact details in hand. The other half called or e-mailed later to ask me for their contact details. 😉 Of course, the food was not the only thing that went right. Everything. Went right. From the table and tabletop rentals to the wait staff doing their usual magic by making every single guest feel as if they were the only person at the party. I’m not exaggerating when I say they got as many compliments as the bride, and nothing made me happier. Peace of mind on your wedding day is a luxury not many have, but we had it and we owe that to Steven Brown Caterers.”

A few weeks before when I wanted to do another itinerary run through, Cortney, was not just game, but so enthusiastic and supportive. As small things came up day of, Evalyn and Cortney were on it and as we were packing up, the whole Dish team helped us pack up and carry out our numerous flower arrangements.

The day you get married to your best friend isn’t about the size of the venue or the number of guests. It’s not about the flavor of the cake or flower arrangements. It’s simply about two people madly in love with each other, the intimate connection they share, and the memories they create along the way. After the food has been eaten, the presents have been opened, and the dress is hanging in your closet, your wedding day will still be with you – in your memories and in the images captured that day.

Sascha was so wonderful to work with!! I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of options we had available to us. I ended up narrowing down by the type of style I saw within photographers portfolio's. Sascha seemed to capture couples in their natural-at-ease compatibility. I reached out to Sascha and throughout our entire communication he was prompt at responding. We booked 4 months in advance and I did have an idea of the type of photo I was looking for. Sascha welcomed my location suggestions and we mapped out a game plan. The day arrived and though we were nervous to be in front of a camera, Sascha made us feel at ease and helped us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Sascha was easy to banter with and was flexible with angles and shots. We left Sascha after the shoot feeling excited and anxious on how well our vision translated to photos. When we got the photos back we could not be more pleased!! They came out exactly how we wanted them to and I couldn't have been more grateful to have found someone as talented, gracious and kind as Sascha.

If the thought of eloping to New York City gives you butterflies, go for it! The Big Apple is a city of dreams – incredible skyscrapers, beautiful parks and tree-lined streets, romantic bridges and iconic landmarks. All in a fast-paced city that never stops moving. Just the kind of rush you want on your wedding day. But, native New Yorker or not, where on earth do you begin? That’s where we step in – smooth, right? Because you are who we’re here for.

We cannot thank Jackie (our officiant) and Sascha (our photographer) enough for making our day absolutely perfect! Jackie’s heartfelt words and ceremony notes beautifully told our love story, making our ceremony uniquely ours. Sascha’s talent behind the camera captured the essence of our love and the day’s beauty in a way we could only dream of. He was incredibly patient and took extra time to ensure I felt comfortable and happy with the photos. Every detail was meticulously planned and executed, making our day seamless and special. Our family cannot stop talking about how wonderful everything was. Highly recommend!

We’re Juan and Melissa, proud Latinos and native New Yorkers with a passion for creating memories that last a lifetime. As newlyweds ourselves not too long ago, we were inspired to launch Digital Memories NYC to offer couples an elevated photo booth experience on such a meaningful occasion. Our goal is to provide a warm, welcoming experience not only for your guests on the day of your celebration, but also through the thoughtful details built into our services.

Juan and Melissa were a joy to work with and made our wedding day extra special. Their photo booth was the biggest hit of the whole reception. I had first encountered them through a work event where they were hired vendors, and my experience was exceptional. Working with them behind the scenes to bring the magic to our special day was a breeze. They were kind, responsive, and professional. We received personalized service and never felt like just another job. Our guests were thrilled with the options for props, the gorgeous backdrop, the lighting - everything. There was never a down moment at the photo booth and Juan and Melissa went the extra mile. Best money we spent on the wedding. Truly.
