Perline Sent on 07/16/2023The Best Experience!
Working with Claire was an amazing experience! Claire helped reassure me and my then fiancé's nerves by answering our many (many) questions. The wedding went perfectly and Claire was there every step of the way. She made the process smooth and exciting. Working with her entire team was awesome, everyone from the Officiant, to the Photographer and the Videographer. Nothing short of amazing! There really is no other choice for Central Park Weddings...book Wed in Central Park.Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thank you for your kind words, Perline! You were a pleasure to work with. I wish you both the best of luck for your future together. -

Rachael T. Sent on 04/18/2024Best decision we ever made.
Cannot recommend Claire enough. If you're planning a Central Park Wedding, Claire is THE BEST. She was efficient but relaxed, I felt completely at ease, she sorted everything and at such a reasonable price! She made what could be a stressful day completely stress free!
I was considering another wedding planner but Claire made the effort to chase me up on whether I'd made a decision and I was like YES, this lady knows what she's doing!
It was an utterly magical day, thanks again ClaireWed in Central Park's reply:
Ha! It's helpful to know that chasing up emails after a few weeks is worth it! It was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you! -

We cannot recommend this company highly enough. We planned a small simple elopement in Central Park and working with Claire everything went so smoothly. Claire was so quick to answer any questions, make suggestions and amendments and was always so knowledgeable and friendly. Getting married in New York can seem daunting especially living in UK but Claire made the while process so easy. She was flexible with what we wanted with regards to photography etc and didn't try and push us into things we weren't comfortable with. The officiant and Photographer Claire sourced for us were so wonderful. They made us feel so at ease and I know Claire was constantly on hand to make sure things went smoothly. My dream has always been to secretly elope to New York and thank you so much to Claire for making it happen in the most perfect way. My advice to anyone thinking of getting married in New York would be to DO IT! And definitely use Wed In Central Park to make your dream be home reality.Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thanks so much for the kind words, Sal, and for sharing the photos! I wish you both the best of luck for your future together. How about a vow renewal for your 27 year anniversary? -

Daphne H. Sent on 10/18/2023Dream vow renewal in Central Park
Wed in Central Park was truly exceptional from start to finish! Since we planned our ceremony remotely, Claire was worth every penny -- she advised us on the best venue at the park to accommodate our group, obtained the permit, worked carefully with us to devise our schedule, and her vendor recommendations were amazing!!! (We used her recommended officiant, musician, florist, make-up and photographer.) Claire was easy to work with, clearly knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to planning at the park, very responsive -- she always promptly answered emails -- and made recommendations that really helped us make the experience as stress-free as possible! We highly recommend Claire for anyone thinking about doing a ceremony in Central Park. Cheers!Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thanks so much for the review, Daphne, and for sharing some of your lovely photos! It was a pleasure to work with you! -

Claire was amazing from minute one and ensured our big day in NYC was set up perfectly. The day was amazing and went without any hiccups at all.

Allison C. Sent on 05/12/2023Took care of all the details!
We planned our wedding in Central Park with only about a month's notice, and Claire made everything easy. She obtained our permit, arranged the schedule, and wrote a beautiful ceremony for us. Our officiant and photographer were also lovely and professional, and our photos turned out great. The packages are also very reasonable. She was helpful and responsive every step of the way, and it was convenient to be able to take care of most details over email. I would recommend this service for anyone who is considering getting married in the park!Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thank you so much for the kind words, Allison! It was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you, despite the short time it took us to do it!

Claire helped me plan an intimate ceremony for my husband and I at Summerhouse at Dene in Central Park. She was great! I went back and forth a few times about whether I wanted to have guests or not, and she was very understanding. She patiently revised the wording for our ceremony. She found the best officiant and photographer for us also. Claire was also very responsive and gave great suggestions. Thank you for everything, Claire!Wed in Central Park's reply:
Hi Christine, thanks so much for the review, it was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you, and I'm so glad that we could make it all work within the short time frame. I wish you both the best of luck for your future together. -

Claire is just fantastic, highly recommend!
Having decided to get married last minute in NYC (3 weeks before wedding date!) I really didn't know where to turn, what we needed to do beforehand or what our options even were. Thankfully a Google search led me to Claire from wed in Central Park. From the very first email I knew we were in safe hands with claire. She immediately put my mind at rest and everything continued to be so straight forward thereafter. Claire was always so concise with her information, I felt I could ask any questions-even ones I felt were a bit silly!! She advised on what our best options were, even as far as where to dine that night and recommendations for hairdresser's!! Claire also wrote a beautiful ceremony for us, with little information from us she managed to capture both our feelings and personalities in it.
The two people Claire booked for us were Kevin, the officiant and Jakub, our photographer. I couldn't speak highly enough of both. Kevin was so personable and we felt very at ease with him throughout our ceremony.
Neither my partner or I are particularly into photos but obviously for the day that was in it we had to suck it up!!! Jakub was just perfect, put us at ease instantly and we had a lovely time with him, walking through Central Park to different locations. He was so professional but easy going and so friendly.
We can't thank Claire enough for everything, she made our trip from ireland to New York to get married so seamless and easy. If you're thinking of getting married in Central Park don't look any further than Claire and 'wed in Central park'. 5 stars!!Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thank you Laura for your kind words. I'm so glad that we were able to do this for you in super-fast time! I wish you both the best of luck for your future together. -

Wed in Central Park
Wed in Central Park were fantastic. Claire organised everything for us and kept us in the loop from day 1. Claire also helped with some added extra's. The whole experience was stress free. Claire helped organise our wedding licence and then all
We needed to do was turn up. Photographer and officiant were also fantastic that Claire arranged.
Claire responds straight away with any questions and even kept us up to date with the weather on the day!
The price for a wedding is so good.
We waited 29 years to get married and it was worth the wait for. The wedding was amazing, in the city we both love and with 20 members of our family. Thank you Claire at Wed in Central Park for such an amazing day .Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thank you Brenda for the kind words. It was a huge pleasure to be a part of your big day - especially given that it took you 29 years to get married! -

Hollie B. Sent on 09/28/2022A fantastic wedding planner
Claire was so helpful with helping us organise our wedding. She answered all our questions with patience and experience, no matter how small or silly. She had brilliant connections with professional and friendly photographers, hair and make-up artists, vehicles and officiants, and communicated with them and us brilliantly, despite a time difference of 5 hours between us. She was organised and we were kept informed at all stages of the planning. Would 100% recommend to anyone considering a wedding in Central Park.Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thanks so much Hollie! It was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you! I'm so glad that we were able to give you the wedding that you wanted! -

I can’t recommend Claire at Wed in Central Park enough. The service she provides leaves nothing to chance, everything is organised for you and it takes all the stress out of the day.

Mr & Mrs McCourt - 27/04/2022
We decided to have a small wedding in Central Park as we had got engaged in New York in 2019.
I found Claire via a google search.
Claire was very helpful from start to finish, answering all our questions.
We decided to go for the package which included a photographer. Claire organised both the officiant and photographer.
Our photographer, Florencia was amazing, we are quite a shy couple but Flo made us feel so comfortable and we are so happy with how the photos turned out.
Our officiant, Kevin was brilliant and our ceremony had a more relaxed feeling, which we were hoping for.
I would 100% recommend Claire to any couples looking to get married in Central Park, our day was amazing, with no issues. Thanks again to Wed in Central Park for making our day so special and one we will never forget!Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thanks for the review, Rachel. It was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you! I wish you both the best of luck for your future together! -

Ashleigh Sent on 05/03/2022An outstanding and unforgettable experience
Me and my husband got married in Wagner’s cover 27/4/22 and had the most perfect day thanks to Claire and her amazingly talented team. From finding ‘wed in Central Park’ on Facebook and emailing Claire late 2021 she has been absolutely fabulous, she made the planning very easy and effortless we felt we hadn’t done a thing, she done everything for us! We had a small intimate wedding in Wagner’s cove and it’s was a gorgeous day we had a lovely officiant, she made us very comfortable and at ease! Our photographer and videographer were outstanding and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome, memories we will cherish forever! If anyone is thinking about going away for their wedding New York is the perfect place. We have had so many compliments on our photos Central Park is perfect for those unforgettable memories and gorgeous photographs. I would recommend Claire 10/10 service couldn’t fault a single thing.Wed in Central Park's reply:
Thank for your kind words, Ashleigh, it was a pleasure to plan your wedding with you, and you got such beautiful photos with the cherry blossom! I wish you both the best of luck for your future together! -

Professional, friendly, quick responses, knowledgable
We first got in touch with Claire from Wed in Central Park back in September 2021 as we were unsure whether to get married in New York - Central Park or somewhere else abroad. Claire was really quick with a response and gave us plenty of information. We knew straight away after speaking to Claire that Central Park was for us and Claire was definitely the person we wanted to plan it for us.
From start to finish Claire was really responsive and would usually get back to us within a couple of hours, this really put us at ease as being from the UK and having so many questions regarding the wedding which were answered in good time.
We found price packages online ourselves, but Claire gave us more information regarding these packages and how much additional extras would be (we opted for a couple more hours with Jakub the photographer). All communication that needed to be done with other parties such as Jakub and Kevin our officiant was all done through Claire and she was brilliant at passing on any messages we needed to know. We found this really helpful as we didn’t have to spend so much time emailing numerous people as it all went through Claire. However it still felt personal because Claire gave us their details and before meeting them in December 2021 for our wedding she had sent over pictures of us so they would recognise us. We can also add the people Claire works alongside such as Jakub and Kevin were absolutely fantastic and couldn’t be faulted.
Claire has fantastic knowledge of the park and City which was really useful when planning where to actually have the ceremony and our photographs. This was brilliant as Claire was able to listen to what we wanted as a couple for our big day and gave suggestions on what would be suitable. We opted for Wagner Cove in the end which was a beautiful secluded place next to a lake. Some places you require a permit Wagner Cove being one of them, however Claire dealt with all this in sending off for to get the permit and we had a response in a few days.
We had to get in touch with the city clerk ourselves and arrange an appointment to get the wedding licence, however Claire was brilliant in providing information regarding this and also giving advice on how to make the process a little quicker and smoother (we found this part the most stressful throughout but with Claire’s help this stress was massively reduced).
When it came to planning the wording and what we actually wanted from the ceremony Claire sent us a really clear draft of the wording and asked if we wanted to change anything or add anything personal. We opted for personal vows which Claire also went through and she set it out in a way which may the ceremony itself much more enjoyable.
A really nice touch was Claire set out a Clear plan regarding the day and where we should be and when. We found this worked really well as the day run so smoothly without any hiccups. Was also a nice personal touch as family and friends back home could also follow as the day went on.
Claire was an ultimate professional from the minute we got in touch with her, really friendly and actually cared about our wedding day which really showed on the day itself. Really responsive in getting back to us and any question we had she was able to confidently answer. We really couldn’t recommend Claire and the guys she works with for photography and the officiant enough, it really was the most perfect day without any stress from the minute we started planning. We actually can’t believe how stress free the process was with it being an international wedding and we are two of the biggest worriers normally. Thankyou so much Claire for our amazing, dream wedding.Wed in Central Park's reply:
