Our favorite details from Angela and Anthony’s Harvard Club wedding

Luxurious and romantic. Those were the first words that came to mind when we saw Angela in her wedding gown. With its long lace sleeves and sweetheart neckline, it was a dream dress come true!

Speaking of dreams… The magic of the day was all around us as Angela and her bridesmaids took to the streets of NYC for some photos. Laughing and posing together, they were a picture of true happiness and friendship.

Angela took Anthony’s breath away as she walked down the aisle. Looking dapper in his black tuxedo and bow tie, Anthony couldn’t stop smiling throughout the entire ceremony.

After the ceremony in Harvard Hall, the reception flowed naturally to a fun cocktail hour in the Grill Room. And, of course, the fabulous reception in the main dining room of Harvard Hall did not disappoint. Under the towering 30 foot ceilings, guests ate, drank and danced well into the evening.

From the drinks and hors d’oeuvres to dinner and dessert – Harvard Club did an exceptional job catering this fabulous event.

Angela and Anthony, thank you for trusting us to photograph your most important day! We wish you everlasting happiness!
