Candlelight elopement ceremony in Central Park.
One of the most intimate and romantic ceremonies that we offer is the candlelight elopement ceremony in Central Park. Inspired by the “enchanted forest” theme, our team is creating an intimate atmosphere by decorating the space with 150 led candles and string lights.
The best time to start the ceremony is on the sunset when the sky is turning blue and city lights start to appear.

What is wedding elopement photography?
Unlike a big traditional wedding, elopement is more personal and intimate. Most of the time, couples won’t even have family or friends present, just the two of them with an officiant. This also makes the photography process faster so the couple can concentrate more on the style of photos they want to have. Imagine, instead of planning a wedding for months and stressing out over guest lists and minor details, you simply enjoy the moment and each other. Eloping gives you more flexibility and time to embrace a unique creative vision. Our professional wedding elopement photographer in New York will work with you in advance to determine your vision and style so your photos will tell the story of the day exactly as you imagine.
