Meghan and Mark’s summer wedding at The Garden City Hotel was the perfect mix of timeless tradition, heartfelt moments, and unforgettable celebration. From a classic church ceremony to a luxurious ballroom reception, every part of the day reflected their love story beautifully.
Classic church ceremony in Garden City
The day began with a traditional Catholic ceremony at the stunning St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. With soft music playing and sunlight pouring through the stained glass, the church was filled with warmth and reverence. Meghan walked down the aisle in a timeless gown, surrounded by family, friends, and love. It was a deeply emotional moment, perfectly officiated by Rev. James Swiader.
Elegant wedding at The Garden City Hotel
Following the ceremony, guests made their way to the iconic Garden City Hotel. Known for its sophisticated architecture and luxurious interiors, this venue created the perfect setting for their reception. The ballroom was transformed with soft lighting, elegant florals, and beautiful details—thanks to the expert coordination of Above All Events.
The evening kicked off with a grand entrance and led into touching speeches, a delicious meal, and joyful dancing. The space felt both grand and intimate, a true reflection of Meghan and Mark’s personalities.
Romantic details, curated to perfection
The talented team at Pedestals Floral Decorators filled the space with lush blooms. The Finishing Touch NY brought everything together with elegant linens and chargers. Meghan looked radiant thanks to Once Upon A Bride, who created a flawless hair and makeup look for her big day.
From ceremony to reception, Luminous Sounds provided the perfect soundtrack with live strings. Meanwhile, Hank Lane Music kept the dance floor full all night long.
