nyc Rooftop Locations for Elopement?

Anna, on February 27, 2020 at 2:56 PM Posted in New York Planning 0 5

My FH and I want to elope, and were originally thinking we'd do a basic court house type thing. Now one of my best friends has offered to officiate, which frees us up to have more options for where to do an elopement ceremony! We live in NYC, and I was thinking it would be really great to find a secluded, private rooftop space that has a garden but also a view of the skyline. I'm envisioning 3 types of photos: day time, sunset, and the skyline lit up.

Only problem is, I'm drawing a blank for exact locations. I keep thinking silly things like "sneak onto my old rooftop on Orchard St!" which is just ridiculous-- the view was good enough on that rooftop, but it was very utilitarian! LOL. That rooftop was just a place to smoke pot with my Occupy friends while people were hanging their laundry nearby.

Any suggestions for good spots?

    Have you thought about looking on Airbnb for a place with a rooftop or outdoor space?

    Omg that's brilliant! LOL how did I not think of that? I guess it's counter-intuitive to airbnb in your own city, but it makes sense-- that way I can get use of a small, private space and also have an area for prepping Smiley laugh I can even get refreshments delivered to the spot, etc. Such a great idea, thanks!

    No worries! That’s why it can be helpful to crowdsource ideas sometimes. Good luck!

    Maybe look on peerspace. I'm eloping as well in NYC and Peerspace was one of the first places I looked. They have really unique options and the prices aren't crazy.
