Alex and Mike both knew they didn’t want a big wedding. "We both come from small families so we had no obligation to throw a party for anyone but ourselves. After some research and figuring out a budget we decided an NYC City Hall elopement was just for us. We have both been in NYC for a long time and it is where we met, so it felt perfect. We decided we wanted that day to be just about us getting married and nothing else. No fussy plans and no hard timelines."

“So it’s inspired by @spaceprincejulio and how he plays with everyday objects and geometry and portals and form, and there’s this gorgeous couple wearing cardboard outfits so they kind of look like paper dolls with the city behind them, and then they’re in a hotel and there’s a surreal tablescape—no, I don’t know what I mean—and everything is really playful and sparkly and magical and weird” — me, trying to describe this shoot for the past six months “Watch this” — Liva and Coco and the unreal vendor team who collectively read my mind and made every single aspect of my bonkers idea a reality 🌀📦 ✂️🐟🍋🖼️🏰🍰☁️⭐️🌙🦪🛸🍸💎💋✨ Photos, creative direction and production: @sylviethecamera Models: @choppedliva @cocooaaa 2D Prop Fabricator: @korenharpaz Wardrobe stylist: @cassadeehirsch Set design and prop styling: @rachelmannello Floral design: @rearranged__ Makeup: @25thandjane Hair: @dolohair Nails: @friskymariska Cake: @pearlbitez Rings: @barioneal Photo assistant: @lisbethebird Rooftop: @cornerstudionyc Hotel: @thestandardhighline

Is anyone else still stuck on 10-image carousels or have all you lucky ducks updated to 20? No reason…anyway, here are exactly 10 of my favorite photos from Grace and Royce’s beyond-glamorous city hall elopement.

What is there to say about Natalie Walker? She is a generous friend, a creative collaborator, a genius performer, a cat benefactrix, an icon.

No faces so you can picture yourself in this city hall elopement with a perfectly springy bouquet! Also, let me take a moment to extoll the main virtues of the Tuesday afternoon elopement: to whit, easy booking on the city clerk’s site in advance, and on this particular Tuesday we were in and out of the marriage bureau in 20 minutes with more time for photos around the city. Take that, Fridays! 💐💐💐💐💐 flowers @vivifleurz dress @staud.clothing hair @dolohair #nycelopementphotographer #cityhallwedding #cityhallelopement #nyccityhallwedding #nyccityhallweddingphotographer

Your dress could be a lemon. Your tie could be a fish. Your honeymoon suite could be full of cardboard clouds. We’re just saying.⁠ ⁠ Photographer @sylviethecamera made a wedding editorial that feels like stepping into someone’s fever dream, and we mean that as the highest compliment. The whole shoot was inspired by Julio Torres, whose world is a place where objects have feelings and logic is optional, and honestly? We think every wedding should have a little of that energy.⁠ ⁠ Hand-painted cardboard costumes by stop-motion artist @korenharpaz . A gelatinous tablescape. Clouds on monofilament above a circular bed. Nails that look like a coral reef. The Empire State Building in the background. Because why not?⁠ ⁠ Full editorial is live on GWS, link in bio.⁠ ⁠ The wedding world needs more of this. More play. More “of course she’d wear a lemon.” More dreamscapes built from neighbors’ shipping boxes. More proof that your wedding can look like your brain, not a template.⁠ ⁠ photos, creative direction, & production: @sylviethecamera | couple: @choppedliva @cocooaaa | 2D prop fabricator: @korenharpaz | ⁠wardrobe stylist: @cassadeehirsch | set design & prop styling: @rachelmannello | floral design: @rearranged__ | makeup: @25thandjane | hair: @dolohair | nails: @friskymariska | cake: @pearlbitez | rings: @barioneal | photo assistant: lisbethebird | rooftop: @cornerstudionyc | hotel: @thestandardhighline

Now on @dancingwithher , a bookstore elopement with the springiest fall bouquets, rooftop vows and celebratory slices from Joe’s! Elysse and Madeleine eloped on my birthday, and it was the absolute best gift to get to run all over the city with them, meeting dogs and hearing cheers on every block. 🌼💛✨☀️✨💛🌼 @elysseyulo  💍 @hendrmv flowers: @flowersby_ellie hair and makeup @simpleandsultry hotel: @ludlowhotelnyc venue: @strandbookstore Rare Book Room pizza: @joespizzanyc 🌼💛✨☀️✨💛🌼 /bookstore-elopement-new-york-city/

It’s spring in New York!!!! 🌸🍓🌷🍒☁️🫧

Coming to you from NYC, where we’re kicking off NYBFW with a celebration that feels exactly like the couple behind it. The best weddings don’t follow a checklist—they follow instinct. ⁠ For Echo and Owen, that meant beginning with a quiet City Hall ceremony…just the two of them and Echo’s parents…before gathering 60 of their closest friends in a Williamsburg loft layered with cherry blossoms. The day moved with the elements (wind, rain, then sun), the bride changed into three distinct looks, and the celebration ended exactly as they wanted: pizza, champagne, and long-table toasts at Roberta’s.⁠ ⁠ A reminder that when you follow your own rhythm, everything else falls into place. ✨⁠ ⁠ Photographer - Sylvie Rosokoff @sylviethecamera ⁠ Makeup – Olivia Garvin @oliviagarvinmakeup ⁠ Hair – Maura Burns @mauraburnshair ⁠ Cake – Nazli and Co @nazliandco ⁠ Florals – BLOOM BLOOM Studio @bloombloom.studio ⁠ Getting ready - The William Vale @thewilliamvale ⁠ Ceremony venue - Private residence⁠ Reception venue - Roberta’s @robertaspizza ⁠ City hall dress - STAUD @staud.clothing ⁠ Ceremony dress - Jenny Yoo @jennyyoonyc ⁠ Ceremony shoes - Gianvito Rossi @gianvitorossi ⁠ Reception dress - & For Love @andforlove ⁠ Reception shoes - Gucci ⁠ Earrings - Completedworks @completedworks ⁠ Owen’s suit - Bindle & Keep @bindleandkeep ⁠ ⁠ NYC micro wedding, city hall wedding, NYC wedding, modern wedding, colorful wedding
