Sneak Peek | The New York City Hall Elopement of Sarah & Michael | Hochzeit im City Clerk’s Office

English:
A little Sneak Peek of Sarah & Michael’s New York City Hall elopement. After initially planning a big traditional wedding, Sarah and Michael decided that they would rather elope to the ‘Big Apple’ and make their wedding day all about them and close family. I met them at the NOMO SOHO hotel where we started with a first look. And as you can see from the first photo..it was emotional. Tears of joy. We started our day right there in Soho. We walked the cobble stone streets, used graffiti and the old brick structures as backgrounds and just had fun walking through this old part of New York City. After an hour we grabbed a cab and made our way to the Brooklyn Bridge for some more wedding photos. And then it was time to get hitched at the City Clerk’s Office. Sarah & Michael’s family met us there to witness the union. It was such an amazing day. Lots of emotions, laughs and silliness. Just the way I like it. :)

Ein kleiner Vorgeschmack auf Sarah & Michael’s New York City Hall Hochzeit. Nachdem sie bereits dabei waren eine grosse traditionelle Hochzeit zu planen entschieden sich Sarah und Michael es klein zu halten und den Tag nur mit ihrer Familie im ‘Big Apple’ zu verbringen. Ich traf die beiden im NOMO SOHO hotel wo wir mit dem ‘First Look’ anfingen. Und wie man im ersten Fotos sehen kann war es sehr emotional. Freudentränen. Wir blieben dann ein wenig in Soho und liefen durch die Kopfsteinpflasterstrassen, verwendeten die Graffitis und alten Gebäude als Hintergrund und hatten einfach Spass in diesem alten Teil von New York. Nach einer Stunde schnappten wir uns ein Taxi und fuhren zur Brooklyn Bridge für ein paar weitere Hochzeitsfotos. Und dann war es Zeit im Standesamt den Bund der Ehe zu schliessen. Sarah und Michael’s Family traf uns dort um die Trauung mit eigenen Augen zu sehen. Es war ein fantastischer Tag mit vielen Emotionen, Lachen und Spass haben. Ganz wie ich es mag. :)
