Weddings in New York City

The Big Apple is a sweet place for newly betrothed couples. Lovebirds planning their weddings in New York City can hold their event at a luxury boutique hotel like the Flatotel Hotel or at an elegant restaurant like the Rainbow Room. Couples with well-connected wedding planners may be able to have their special day in a renowned museum, an art gallery, a private garden or another hard-to-access location.

Of course, houses of worship are popular for weddings in New York City and finding an officiant is fairly easy. There is something for everyone here, including historic Abyssinian Baptist Church, the landmark Bialystoker Synagogue, the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine, the newly restored Eldridge Street Synagogue, the beloved Friends Meeting House, the Hindu Temple Society of North America, the New York Mosque and the famed Saint Patrick’s Cathedral.

Along with planning weddings in New York City, couples can go to the Diamond District to pick out their bands, stop to smell the roses and more exotic flora in the Flower District and buy something special for the wedding night at stores like the Pink Slip in Grand Central Terminal. Brides and grooms can get pampered for the main event at award-winning spas, such as the Cornelia Day Resort, Rescue Beauty Lounge and the Spa at Mandarin Oriental.
