New York City is stunning at all times of the year. But there’s something about summers in New York that are a bit more magnetic than other places. This summer rooftop wedding overlooking Manhattan’s iconic skyline is an incredibly romantic and memorable way to get married!
Event designers For the Good Events teamed up with the planners and photographers behind Jankun Styled Shoots to create this epic wedding inspiration at The Bordone LIC. The main draw here was the stunning floral arrangements created by Tame Florals. With a vendor list this jam-packed and talented, the result is guaranteed to be amazing.
