There’s something about New York that just makes love stories bigger, bolder, and more cinematic. Andy & Michelle’s Iconic NYC Elopement was exactly that, equal parts timeless and playful. Instead of City Hall, they chose the 620 Loft rooftop right in their own neighborhood, with St. Patrick’s Cathedral as their backdrop. What started as a quiet, overcast morning in Manhattan turned into a day full of laughter, street-crossing glamour shots, and yes… a CitiBike ride in full wedding attire!
Ceremony At 620 Loft Rooftop
If you’re dreaming of an Iconic NYC Elopement, this rooftop is as good as it gets. Tucked away above Fifth Avenue, it’s a rare mix of stillness and skyline. On the morning of their vows, the city felt like it paused just for Andy & Michelle. With the cathedral towering behind them and the Midtown skyline wrapping around, their ceremony was intimate, heartfelt, and exactly what they wanted, a true reflection of their love story without any of the extra noise.
CitiBikes & Hot Dogs: The Best Kind of Wedding Photos
After we immersed ourselves around Radio City and the classics of Central Park, Michelle casually mentioned how she and Andy always ride CitiBikes together. Without missing a beat, we made it happen. Picture this: her in Manolo Blahnik heels, him in a tux, zipping through Central Park on bikes, stopping for hot dogs along the way. It wasn’t planned, but it was so them. And honestly…that’s what makes wedding galleries unforgettable, when you let your day unfold in ways that feel authentic to your love!
