I am really impressed with the level of patience focus and support demonstrated by our collective group. The Flat Iron District represents a distinct an elegant wedding of both “old” New York City and “new” New York. The area consistently reinvents itself while maintaining its rich historic architecture and culture. Special thanks to photographer Ariane Hunter for volunteering to help out yesterday. Thank you to Chrystal (Bobby’s wife) and Nel (Christopher’s Wife) for coordinating the event with us. Also, I want to offer my thanks our fellow wedding professionals who helped us get the word out including: Anti-Bride, Always a Blogsmaid, Brooklyn Bride, Merci New York and Tami Golson.
