T&A
31 Jul, 2026The story of our wedding
We chose The Estate at Florentine Gardens in River Vale, New Jersey because it felt like the perfect place to bring our vision to life. From the beautiful grounds and elegant atmosphere to the incredible service, we knew from the moment we saw it that it was where we wanted to celebrate our wedding. It felt timeless, romantic, and truly like us.
Our wedding day was elegant, romantic, and timeless, with a classic black and white color palette and touches of greenery. We wanted candles to be the centerpiece of our decor, creating a warm, romantic glow throughout the reception. Rather than having florals throughout the room, we kept the flowers simple and intentional, featuring florals only on our sweetheart table. The candlelight, paired with the white florals and black accents, created the intimate and sophisticated atmosphere we envisioned. We carried the theme through our menus, welcome sign, napkins, and other details, making sure every element felt cohesive and true to our vision.
