KIMBERLEY & DAVID
NYC Destination Wedding
LADIES PAVILION - Central Park, NY

Kimberley & David met on a blind date through a mutual friend and had an instant connection and the rest is really history. They've been together 9 years, have two beautiful children together and had a long engagement. This wedding was several years in the making because of the pandemic and a few date changes due to travel restrictions. Last year they finally got to say "I Do" in the UK. Getting married in NYC was always their dream and somewhere they loved when visiting, the fast pace, the sights, the people, it will always have a place in their hearts and they just had to get remarried here as they had originally planned four years ago. They had a whirlwind day with family and friends at their Central Park ceremony, a Trolley Bus tour to Dumbo for photos & video then onto a dinner cruise around the Hudson River and NYC fabulous skyline. We wish you continued married bliss and a lifetime of love and happiness xx

ZOE & STEPHEN
Wedding Vow Renewal
LADIES PAVILION - Central Park, NY

Seven years ago to the day Zoe and Steve flew to NYC from London to get married in the City that never sleeps with the I Do Weddings NYC team. Today they renewed their wedding vows in the exact same place, Ladies Pavilion in Central Park, on the same day, time, and venue. Only difference was, they now have two adorable daughters together to complete their family. Zoe and her girls looked gorgeous in their dresses as handsome Steve waited for them at Ladies Pavilion. Zoe & Steve recited and pledged their love, exchanged two brand new wedding rings and had an amazing photo tour with Jimmy (same photographer from their wedding day) around Central Park on a beautiful picture perfect summer day in NYC. We truly enjoyed planning and being a part of your wonderful celebration of love. Cheers to you both on your wedding vow renewal day. Wishing you all much continue love, laughter and happiness always xx

KATIE & OWEN
NYC Destination Wedding
LADIES PAVILION - Central Park, NY

Congratulations to Katie & Owen on their fabulous NYC wedding!! Owen & Katie met in college through mutual friends.
and have been together for 8 years. They both love America and have travelled on their first holiday that was just the two of them to New York in 2016. Together with their families & friends all from the United Kingdom, they were married at Ladies Pavilion in Central Park. Our Bride & Groom then traveled in grand NYC style on a photo tour in a vintage checker taxi cab with a champagne toast first. Stops included the Alice in Wonderland statue (Bride is a huge fan), the NY Public Library and Rockefeller Centre. All eyes were on our beautiful couple as they posed for their unique and amazing wedding photos. Katie & Owen truly personalized their wedding with their love of animals (see the cute giraffe embroidered on Katie's wedding dress that matches her tattoo). Also, can we just say... how handsome and sharp does Owen look in his lilac suit!! Wishing our truly fun & stylish couple many decades of happiness and wedded bliss. Cheers to you both xx

NYC Destination Wedding
DENE SUMMERHOUSE - Central Park, NY

Dinja & Michael met at work and have been together for over a decade. They planned on marrying in 2020 but had to postpone their wedding to 2022 because of the pandemic.

They exchanged their vows and then walked thru the park for some really romantic photos that truly showcase their love for one another. They celebrated at the Boathouse with champagne and lunch. Congratulations and best wished Dinja & Michael on your marriage. It was honestly worth the wait.

ANNE & JOHN
NYC Destination Wedding
LADIES PAVILION - Central Park, NY

Together with their families, Anne & John flew over from Ireland to say their "I DOs" in Central Park. Having visited the U.S. many times, they knew they wanted to exchange vows in beautiful Central Park. Not even the light rain could stop them from becoming Mr & Mrs. They had the entire park all to themselves for their intimate wedding ceremony. Anne & John met 14 years ago. John gave Anne his business card at a work function, but Anne wrote one of the phone digits wrong. They bumped into each other a year later and Anne had to explain that she really wanted to call John but had one of his # wrong. It was meant to be and they have been together ever since. Congratulations and best wishes to you both for a very long and loving marriage xx

Wedding Bells are ringing Finally...Catherine & David tied the knot!! They had to rearrange their wedding date a few times because of the pandemic but it was truly worth the wait.

GITTE & CHRISTOF
NYC Destination Wedding
LADIES PAVILION - Central Park, NY

Gitte & Christof met in 2017 at a school sporting event as both are elementary school fitness teachers. They started talking and went on a date. They shared a pizza and found they had a lot in common and romance blossomed. Christof is OBSESSED with NYC, even sets his watch to NY Apps. This is their first visit to NY. It was Gitte idea to marry here even though she is extremely afraid of flying...what a great wedding gift for her future husband. Together with their family and children they flew from Belgium to exchange their vows in Central Park. As we walked through the park Christof was pointing out every location from all the movies he had watched about NYC...he was our own personal tour guide. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom and all was so magical for them. Congratulations Gitte & Christof, truly two soul mates destined to be together forever. Cheers to you both on your wedding day. Wishing you much love & happiness always.

MARICELLA + KENNETH
St. Luke’s Church
Crest Hollow Country Club

Congratulations Dr & Mrs Tietjen👨🏼‍⚕️👰🏼

Our gorgeous couple started out as high school sweethearts, they even went to prom together! After they graduated High School they attended the same university, then on to medical school. Once Kenneth completed his pediatric residency he knew there was one thing left to do, propose to Maricella. He planned a romantic proposal last fall near the Brooklyn Bridge in Dumbo and of course she said yes! They exchanged their emotional and heartfelt vows in front of family and close friends then continued on their celebration with dinner and much dancing. Our groom surprised his new wife by signing a beautiful love song in Spanish to her. Our bride then surprised her new husband with a festive mariachi band. Wishing these two soulmates much love & happiness in their new lives together as husband & wife.

CHRISTIANNE + THOMAS
St. Agnes Church NYC

Christianne & Thomas met at the United Nations in NYC where their paths crossed while at work. They have been together for over two years and decided to marry in the city they both love and where they met and fell in love. Having eloped with I Do Weddings NYC back in December 2020 on the steps of the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue, they finally were able to have their dream wedding ceremony & reception once Covid-19 restrictions ended. They were picked up with the vintage checker cab and were driven in grand NYC style to their wedding ceremony at St. Agnes Church. Immediately following the ceremony, cocktails were served on the rooftop at the Bryant Park Grill for their guests. Then dinner was served to their families & friends inside the restaurant with Tom leading on the dance floor with slick moves, followed by many heartfelt speeches and toasts. I am beyond thrilled that Christianne & Thomas finally had the wedding that they so long dreamed of.
They are truly a special couple who so deserved to have this wonderful celebration of their love and marriage. Chris & Tom we wish you much love, happiness & eternal wedded bliss
