When an iconic rooftop garden meets a moody fall palette, we are introduced to this tasteful, autumnal wedding inspiration in New York City. 620 Loft and Garden serves some of the best views in Manhattan and is the perfect backdrop for a romantic wedding in the city. This day was curated by planner and designer, Britt Jones, and captured by Stephanie Michelle Photography.
The jumping off point for designing this day started at thinking about the regality of St. Patrick’s Cathedral which was crafted in the 1800’s and inspired by European architecture. The goal was to blend modern day New York with an old world architectural style but also bring in some nods to the season. Rather than choosing blatant fall colors like red, orange, and yellow, we went for a more intentional approach bringing in plum, mauves, and soft pinks. Both the ceremony and reception gowns worn were Viktor and Rolf .
The Dresses
The ceremony gown had a more sleek satin look to it, but had the most wow-factor moment with the train and bow back. Additionally, the reception gown was a tiered tulle dress that had the most beautiful high neckline. This dress was so beautifully crafted and it actually reminded the vendor team of a chandelier. Little do you know, there are actually hand drawn chandeliers on the invite suite to tie the whole look together.
