Sometimes you just know when something is right. Vicky and Magdiel knew from the moment they met they would one day get married and Vicky knew since she was a child she wanted a winter wedding in NYC. Thankfully, both wishes came true and this adorable couple was able to celebrate their big day in a winter wonderland (minus the NYC snow). Casey Fatchett Photography was there to catch every moment (and lady bug) during the day. Take a peek!
Vicky wore a beautiful off white Vera Wang sweetheart gown accessorized with Betsey Johnson shoes, a vintage shawl and Swarovski earrings. While the color theme of the day was white to create a wintery feel, Vicky accented it with crystals brooches in her bouquet and Magdiel’s boutonniere. We love that idea as a substitute to flowers especially in the chilly months.
Vicky had lady bugs hidden throughout the day for good luck – such a sweet little touch to look for!
The couple got married in the gorgeous St. Bart’s Cathedral which we love for its vaulted ceilings and detailed decor. The bridesmaids wore black sweetheart gowns with fur shawls and crystal accents while the groomsmen wore black tuxedos from Payret Studios. “Ever since I was a very young girl my father would tell us stories of the frigid cold winters (and sometimes springs) of New York City,” said Vicky. “Being a Miami girl I always dreamed of whet NYC felt like & looked like. At a very young age I developed a love for the big apple. It was clear no other place in the world would be remotely comparable to this city for our winter wedding.”
Escort cards were held in small vintage checker cabs that told guests to “Take their taxi to:” their assigned table. The reception at The Libery Ballroom was turned into a winter wonderland, covered in white drapes, white hydrangeas and pillar candles to create an icy hue. We love the minimalist approach to make everything look crisp and flawless.
Their wedding cake was a two tiered white cake topped with a sparkling gold “Love” atop it, created by the Marriot Marquis’ pastry chef.
