New York City Hall Wedding

One thing to love about new york weddings is the shotgun style elopements and marriages that happen at city hall. If you’ve never been to New York, it’s downtown in lower Manhattan near the water by the other large courthouses. Abbie and Shaman got in touch with me to photograph their city hall ceremony shotgun wedding style. This was so fun because it was just the three of us and I was their official witness! They let me sign the paperwork and everything haha! That was a first for me.

You’ll love that we ended up getting ice cream at one of their favorite places in town, Morgenstern’s NYC! I had the Cardamom Lemon Jam and it was TO DIE FOR!

If you’re thinking about doing a small ceremony and getting the marriage license at a courthouse I highly recommend it. There is less stress and hassle and no expectations at all from family or guests whatsoever. You can really plan out a fun afternoon for your fiancé and yourself and make it your own.

Abbie and Shaman were amazing to work with and made this wedding day incredible for me to be at. Thank you Abbie for hiring me as your photographer for a wonderful afternoon out in the city and congratulations on your new marriage!
