Welcome to Week Four (!!) of the local New Jersey & New York wedding series! Each Wedding Wednesday features a local New Jersey or New York wedding & other days present details from local weddings that I love, like subway seating chart & subway wedding photos from last week. Today, we're back to local details that I adore- sweets & the New York City skyline.
Black & white cookies are a delicious staple at every tri-state area bakery. Yummy. I've enjoyed countless black & white cookies in my lifetime! They are simply classic New York. Black & white cookie favors are a perfect choice for a New York City wedding. The wedding guests walk away with a little taste & flair of the city. & just to seal the local deal- the treats were sealed with a New York City skyline label. Two thumbs up!
While I may be blogging about New York City, my heart & prayers are with the strong people of Boston! I wish those affected by the tragedy much strength & comfort.

Happy Wedding Wednesday!
Today's wedding is the first in a series of local New Jersey & New York weddings, just to give you an idea of how marriages are celebrated in my corner of the world. I fell head over heels in love with this wedding with just one quick glance at the classic, timeless photos in Times Square. But I think you'll agree- there is much, much more to love about this Manhattan wedding. Let's take a look at the beautiful day captured by Le Image, Inc.:
Sam & Justin got married on August 25, 2012 in New York City. Their beautiful wedding featured a crisp, end of summer color palette & a sweet love bird theme set against the gritty, yet glamourous backdrop of Manhattan. The Bride & Groom exchanged vows at The Church of Saint Luke on Hudson Street in Greenwich Village. After officially becoming husband & wife, they were whisked away in a vintage Packard. The Bride & Groom stopped & took timeless black & white photos in Times Square. The cocktail & dinner reception was held at 3 West Club, a midtown establishment known for its old world charm. The Bride & Groom added their own rustic touches to their celebration with overflowing hydrangea centerpieces flanked by bark candles & bark table numbers. All in all, a classic Manhattan love story!
My Favorite Moment: The Bride & Groom riding in the backseat of their vintage Packard with slightly nervous looks on their faces. That's exactly how I feel riding around the crazy streets of Manhattan!
My Favorite Detail: The wedding cake takes it- the original design & color captivate me!
Congratulations, Sam & Justin!

Since we are diving into New York & New Jersey weddings for the next few weeks, I will bringing you a steady diet of New York & New Jersey details that I adore. Our first contender is the MetroCard escort card!
If there is one item that resides in the wallet of every New Yorker, it's a MetroCard. A MetroCard is a bit like a Manhattan passport. It is accepted on city subways & buses; it can take you anywhere & everywhere! As such, MetroCard escort cards are an absolutely perfect detail for a New York City wedding. Or for a New York City couple getting married elsewhere.
MetroCard escort cards bring local flavor & charm to the special occasion!

It's just such a joy to show you weddings from my corner of the world that I have arranged five weeks of homegrown, New Jersey & New York weddings. I am really honored & excited to start with this New York City gem, including classic wedding portraits in Times Square. LOVE! For all the New York City wedding charm, please join me next Wedding Wednesday!
