The Tuxedo Club wedding – Erin and Andy

This Tuxedo Club wedding will be remembered by us for a long time! The Tuxedo Club in New York is a stunning historical institution placed alongside a beautiful lake… Erin and Andy knew they wanted a luxury getaway for themselves and their guests, and The Tuxedo Club did not disappoint! Throughout the planning process, the couple’s main thought was having everyone they love in the same room. Great food, an awesome band, and a beautiful venue were all items at the top of their wish list. The ceremony was at St. Gabriel The Archangel Church in Saddle River. Its bright and open space was complemented with ivory blooms and greenery along every pew. Erin’s smile was just as radiant as her gown and jewelry, and Andy sported a classic black and white tuxedo. The reception was decorated in deep red and gold, and was truly a party with the dance floor never empty! The couple made our job easy, with endless sparkling details and an even more radiant love!
