620 Loft and Gardens Rooftop Wedding in Manhattan, New York :

Ya’llllllllllllll I Can’t EVEN! Wow! Let me start out by saying this was an AH-MAZING wedding! Obviously, right… I’m not even talking about the venue and the view. Polly and Mark are two of the sweetest, humble and most down to earth people in the entire world…yes the entire world. To know them is to love them.

620 Loft and Gardens Rooftop Wedding in Manhattan, New York : The Bridal Suite

Polly and her super fun bridesmaids got ready in a suite at The Lotte New York Palace Hotel in midtown Manhattan. We took shots of Fireball, had a super fun first look with her parents and bridesmaids, and Polly looked absolutley STUNNING!

One of the sweetest parts of the morning is when Polly surprised her mom and sister with matching rings that had been melted down from her grandmother’s wedding band. Now each of them had a piece of her with them. This is the kind of sweetness that I’m talking about!

Mark and his groomsmen also got ready in a super cool suite at The Lotte New York Palace Hotel. In lieu of boutonnieres, Mark had custom Game of Thrones Pins for his groomsmen. We took the guys around Midtown Manhattan and took some fun portraits of them.

620 Loft and Gardens Rooftop Wedding in Manhattan, New York : The First Look and Couples Portraits

SO! These two are the definition of a couple who is down for anything and in it to win it! We were not planning on doing a first look, but the weather was SO crazy that day. The chance of rain kept increasing as the day progressed and it wasn’t just a little rain… the forecast said “Strong Storms and Wind”.

I asked Polly if she would be interested in taking some portraits beforehand just in case the weather was accurate. She was so about it. We planned a last minute switch up and headed over to the venue for the first look with Mark.

After the first look, we headed out to the streets of New York City for some fun portraits. The rain started briefly thereafter and luckily there was a vendor selling umbrellas. Right as I walked up to him, the girl before me had bought the last clear umbrella…the last one ya’ll. So I begged and bargained with her to use it for 10 minutes and she let us!

When we arrived back to the venue the chairs for the ceremony had been removed due to the rain. We were planning on moving everything inside but the VIEW! No way, they decided to wait the rain out a minute and continue with the rooftop ceremony with a slight drizzle happening. At the end of the ceremony the sun broke through the clouds and it was clear the rest of the evening!

The reception was held inside and we had some super delicious food and emotional toasts. Polly and Mark’s family and friends had a great time celebrating the night away with the newlyweds. The DJ was awesome and really got the party started.

The guests were surprised with a late night Pizza snack! We were all also surprised with a Karaoke song from her cousin and a surprise proposal to his girlfriend!! It was SO sweet! This truly was a wedding made of New York City dreams. Congrats Polly and Mark!!
