St. Patrick’s Cathedral & The Manhattan Center | Katherine & Nicholas
We began the day at The New Yorker, A Wyndham Hotel, where Katherine and Nicholas were getting ready for one of the most memorable days of their lives. The atmosphere was full of anticipation — laughter, excitement, and a touch of calm before the big “I do.”
Katherine was finishing her bridal look, surrounded by her bridesmaids who couldn’t take their eyes off her stunning gown. Every detail was elegant and timeless, and we captured those heartfelt, quiet moments just before she stepped into her day. Meanwhile, upstairs, Nicholas was celebrating in true New York style — hanging out on the rooftop with his best friends, a beer in hand, and a perfect city view behind them.
When the time came for their first look, emotions ran high. Seeing each other for the first time in their wedding attire was pure magic — the kind of moment that reminds you why we love photographing NYC weddings. Their energy was electric, their smiles impossible to miss.
Soon after, we headed to St. Patrick’s Cathedral, one of New York’s most iconic landmarks. Guests were already arriving, and the grand space buzzed with anticipation. Nicholas stood at the altar, waiting as Katherine entered, escorted by her mother. The ceremony was solemn and deeply emotional — heartfelt vows, the exchange of rings, and that unforgettable first kiss as husband and wife.

Outside the cathedral, family and friends greeted the newlyweds with cheers, applause, and waving ribbons — a celebration worthy of the moment. From there, we made a quick stop at the New York Public Library, where the couple’s portraits captured the essence of classic New York — marble steps, grand architecture, and a sense of timeless romance. We also took some fun group shots with their wedding party, who looked like a crew straight out of a fashion editorial — stylish, joyful, and full of energy.
As the sun began to set, we made our way to The Manhattan Center, where the evening celebration was set to begin. The reception opened with an incredible first dance that instantly filled the room with energy and joy. Soon everyone joined the dance floor, and the party came alive — laughter, movement, and music everywhere.
Dinner followed, filled with emotional toasts from family and friends, both heartfelt and hilarious. Later came the mother-son and mother-daughter dances, a beautifully tender moment before the night erupted again in celebration. The cake cutting was a showstopper — dramatic, joyful, and perfectly them. As the live band played into the night, the atmosphere was pure magic — a night no one would forget.
It was a perfect New York wedding — a mix of elegance, emotion, and unstoppable energy — the kind of day that reminds us why we love what we do.
