The Bethesda Fountain Elopement of Ramona & Riccardo | A Rainy Central Park Wedding

This is the Bethesda Fountain Elopement of Ramona & Riccardo. And this is another proof that there is no bad weather when it comes to New York City weddings. Ramona started her day by getting ready at ‘Dear Irving on Hudson, a great bar with even better views of the city. The weather didn’t look promising from the beginning but everyone was in a great mood. When we walked into Central Park it really opened up and the rain came down hard. But again, only smiling faces as far as the eyes could see. Riccardo, with all of their friends and families, waited for us at Bethesda Terrace where Jackie performed a wonderful ceremony. After their “I Do’s” we walked through the empty Central Park before we ended our time together at Grand Central Terminal for some last photos. A day we definitely will not forget!

Dies ist die Hochzeit von Ramona & Riccardo am Bethesda Fountain im Central Park. Und dies ist ein weiterer Beweis, dass es kein schlechtes Wetter gibt um in New York City zu heiraten. Ramona startete ihren Tag mit dem ‘getting ready’ im ‘Dear Irving on Hudson, einer tollen Bar mit einem fantastischen Blick auf die Stadt. Das Wetter sah von Anfang an etwas trübe aus aber das tat der Stimmung keinen Abbruch. Als wir dann in den Central Park gingen kam es so richtig runter. Aber auch da gab es nur lachende Gesichter. Riccardo – samt Familien und Freunden – warte schon auf uns beim Bethesda Terrace wo Jackie eine sehr herzliche Trauung durchführte. Anschliessend liefen wir noch etwas durch den leeren Park bevor wir dann beim Grand Central Terminal für ein paar letzte Fotos endeten. Ein toller Hochzeitstag den wir sicherlich nicht vergessen werden.

Working on something new for our couples. And this one took a while to get right…
20 years!!
7,305 days.
175,320 hours.
10,519,200 minutes.
And around 631 million seconds of putting up with each other.

Today, exactly 20 years ago, I married my best friend. And I had no idea what the next 20 years would bring.

I love Jackie more today than ever. Which says a lot, because I already liked her quite a bit before. She is my best friend, my business partner, my favorite person to do absolutely nothing with, and somehow the only human alive who can handle my grumpy moods. No really, that alone should win her an award or something. 

When we met, I was still an architect and Jackie was a musical theater actor. Neither of us could have imagined that 20 years later we would be running our own wedding business together, celebrating love for a living, and helping over 1,200 couples create their own love stories. 

We literally spend all our time together. Business, travel, life...and I still wake up every day wanting more of it. That is either true love or early signs of insanity. Probably both.

And to think it all started when I walked down the stairs at Bethesda Terrace and saw her sitting by the fountain…in those ugly pink pants. (Yes, they were that bad. Whole nother story. Ask me about it sometime.)

Twenty years later, we have built this wild, beautiful, unpredictable life together. There have been plot twists, bad haircuts, flight delays, lost luggage, and a whole lot of laughter. And I would not trade a single second of it.

Here is to the next 20 years of chaos, love, and whatever else we get ourselves into. ❤️

If you made it to the end of this post, tell us how we know and met you. Because guess what…you are part of our story too. And we want to hear about it. Thank you for being an integral part of Team Reinking.
