Brenna and Tom met at Fordham University in New York City, and on a fateful night at a Cinco de Mayo party, they got to talking and never really stopped. It felt like it was just the two of them in the room, they said. After the party ended, they sat on a stoop for hours, talking into the early morning before sharing their first kiss before sunrise. In the weeks that followed, they were inseparable – Yankee games, long walks through Midtown, afternoons at Coney Island.
Nine years later, they were married in a church in the beloved city where they met and built a life together.
They rode to Central Park in the back of a vintage 1973 taxi as the sun dropped behind the skyscrapers, waving to strangers who called out their congratulations from every NYC street corner. Their choreographed first dance at the iconic Essex House was a hit, and family and friends filled the dance floor as a nine-piece band played late into the night.
Their wedding weekend was a chic, elegant Manhattan affair – everything they dreamed of and more!
