RAINBOW ROOM WEDDING, ROCKEFELLER CENTER NYC: PERRI & GRAHAM

GRAHAM & PERRI AT ROCKEFELLER CENTER

This wedding has been featured on Carats & Cake!


ICONIC. That's the only word that can describe Perri and Graham's wedding day at the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center. They're basically NYC royalty now. Queen P channeled her inner 70s diva with bouncy big curls and bold blue eyeshadow. Her Marchesa gown was both sexy and playful, perfect for an event on top of the world! Sweeping views of the city, impeccable fashion, and an incredible band ensured that their reception was THE place to be on Friday night! Dreams are made in New York!!!

Special thank you to my incredible second photographer, Mekina Saylor, for capturing the groom’s prep and so many other incredible moments throughout the day! Love these photos of Graham and his guys!

First Look outside of the Warwick Hotel…

After a quick walk around the block, we settled in at Rockefeller Center for the rest of the evening. We captured some beautiful portraits outside with Radio City, then took the private elevator up to the Observation Deck, and ended at the 65th floor - Rainbow Room. Each view better than the last!

Up at the Observation Deck we got to meet a few members of the NY Knicks and steal their sign for a minute!

Wedding Rule No. 72: If you’re tired, rest. Weddings are exhausting!!

When you literally can’t even with family photos…haha!

Rainbow Room is famed for its incredible art deco style and stunning 65th floor views. Events held here have been graced by presidents, dignitaries, celebrities, and some of the brightest stars in entertainment. And my favorite part? The dance floor spins! (Yes, I’m easily impressed!)

I have like 100 favorite memories from this day, but this one might take the cake. The bride’s sister and brother are both extremely talented musicians, and they opened their speeches with a performance of Hamilton’s Satisfied. The entire room was on their feet hootin’ and hollerin’!!

Both Perri and Graham reserved a special dance for mom.

Congratulations Perri and Graham! We are so happy for you two cuties!

While Mekina and I were photographing the day, Chris (my hubs!) and Alex were capturing video. Check out his AMAZING highlight film below!!
