A New York City Outdoor Wedding in Fort Tryon Park - The New Leaf Restaurant

When you have a outdoor wedding in Fort Tryon Park, New York City — t's going to be amazing.  Hands down.  Lauren and Eric couldn't have planned it ANY more beautifully.  The weather was perfect, their outfits were perfect-- and the florals for this wedding- everything blew me out of the water.  Lauren and Eric are really down to earth, fun loving, food loving people.  So they really match well with me :)  Their sense of style also really resonated with me as well.  Their wedding favors were mini Tabasco sauces that were entitled "keeping it spicy"!! HAHA! I die.  It was so amazing.

One crazy part of this wedding was wayyy back, when they booked me, they were really excited to tell me about this awesome florist that Eric used to stop by at Brooklyn nearby their home all the time.  But when they moved out of Brooklyn, the florist was so sad about them leaving, she even cried.  They were THAT close to their florist- so now you can see clearly see how awesome these two are.  So when they called her to do the flowers for the wedding-- she was thrilled!  And boy did she create some gorgeous bouquets and decor!  The best part too, is that when I met the florist, Kana (Saffron in Brooklyn ... I realized we KNEW each other and went to Laguardia (WOOT!) High School together!!  What a small world!

Again, I really enjoyed every moment of this wedding day.  Their families were both so awesome, funny and we shared some interesting moments together in the limo.  I was so happy to be a part of their big day and thankful they wanted me to document it for them!  They had their ceremony right in the park in Fort Tryon and then their reception at the New Leaf Restaurant - It truly is a HIDDEN GEM in New York City Weddings!

Here are some of my favorite shots of the day:
