“We wanted a timeless look, somewhere Etta James would want to have a drink”

The Details | Timeless Meets Contemporary

Every element of Maddy and Nic’s wedding was curated with precision and polish. Their invitation suite featured clean lines, delicate script, and bespoke illustrations—an ode to their refined taste. Gold accents and black envelopes created an elevated contrast, while thoughtful inclusions like vow books and heirloom jewelry reflected a personal touch. The rings, captured atop a custom sketch of a bow motif, told a story of classic elegance paired with modern sparkle. Maddy’s attentional to detail gave the details a personal touch of class and sophistication.

A Morning of Glamour and Grace

Maddy’s morning was nothing short of iconic—wrapped in silky pajamas trimmed with feathers, she toasted with her bridesmaids in a setting that felt straight out of a Vogue editorial. The energy was lighthearted and full of joy, with laughter echoing through the bridal suite as glasses clinked and old memories were shared. With a soft swipe of her Dior gloss and final touches of pearl accessories, Maddy embraced every moment of getting ready with the calm confidence of a bride who knew this day was hers. The sweet exchange with her mother brought a tender pause to the excitement, grounding the morning in love and legacy. Every detail of her look—from the romantic floral appliqué on her gown to her timeless French manicure—reflected her modern yet classic style.

Classic Style with a Refined Edge

Nic’s look was the embodiment of classic sophistication with just the right amount of edge. He wore a tailored black tuxedo with a crisp white shirt and satin bow tie—timeless, polished, and perfectly suited for the elegance of The Lincoln. His details were a nod to understated luxury: patent leather shoes, a sleek timepiece, and a crystal glass of whiskey in hand as he got ready with his groomsmen. The moody bar setting, with decanters, cigars, and warm lighting, created a masculine, editorial moment that felt both intentional and effortlessly cool. Every detail spoke to Nic’s modern gentleman style—refined, confident, and deeply present in every moment.

Maddie & Nic’s Story

“We met in early 2018, we started out as friends who connected over our love of old music and being extra. So in 2022 when Nic proposed he knew he had to go big. He proposed in NYC Central Park while we’re were there for Christmas. He did it while it was just the two of us, it was intimate and allowed us to process all the feelings without reservation. Then immediately after he booked a horse drawn carriage ride through the park. I could not has asked for anything more!”

The Ceremony | A Garden Editorial Moment

Set against the grand architecture of The Lincoln, Maddy and Nic exchanged vows surrounded by ethereal floral installations in soft ivory and cream. The afternoon sun illuminated Maddy’s veil, casting a golden glow that felt both intimate and cinematic.

We took advantage of this stunning setting to capture bridal and couple portraits, elevating the moment with a blend of timeless architecture and lush garden romance.

The Reception | Romantic Luxury with a Bold Twist

Inside the venue, the aesthetic shifted to soft, romantic minimalism with a modern edge. Crisp white linens, ghost chairs, and clear glass details kept the space feeling light and airy, while floating candles and low floral arrangements danced across the tables. Towering windows poured in natural light, creating a warm, inviting glow.

Black floral linens added a striking modern touch, grounding the design with bold, vintage-inspired elegance. The black accents throughout brought a sense of intentional contrast—refined, dramatic, and effortlessly chic. It was a scene that whispered luxury without ever raising its voice.

“Seeing the vision come to life was incredible”

Dinner | A Slice of Elevated Comfort

For dinner, Maddy and Nic served up something truly unforgettable—brick oven pizza, fired fresh on-site from a vintage-style pizza truck. The scent of woodsmoke and melted cheese filled the air as guests watched their pies bubble to perfection in the open flame oven.

It was the perfect blend of casual charm and thoughtful hospitality, creating a shared experience that brought everyone together. With a side of fresh salad and endless flavor combinations, this interactive dinner felt cozy, elevated, and undeniably fun—a true highlight of the night.

The Celebration | Elevated, Yet Unfiltered

The evening unfolded with heart and style. Maddy and Nic’s first dance in the marble entryway felt like a moment straight out of a black-tie editorial, yet completely grounded in their joy. Later, they changed into reception looks and clinked glasses with their favorite people, the room buzzing with laughter, music, and celebration. Whether it was a champagne toast or a quiet exchange of glances, the day was filled with love in its most authentic form.
