Nestled in the Bronx, the New York Botanical Garden offers a dreamy escape — and, notably, Stone Mill shines for weddings. For this couple, it was the perfect venue to bring their vision of a romantic, classic wedding to life, surrounded by lush gardens and timeless beauty.

To begin with, the color palette featured soft pastels, with lilac and blush pink beautifully taking center stage. Furthermore, every detail—from florals to attire—featured these hues, creating a serene, romantic, fairytale-like atmosphere.

A Ceremony Beneath the Trees

To start the day, an outdoor ceremony unfolded beneath towering trees, where nature beautifully enhanced the celebration. Meanwhile, a harpist played softly as guests arrived, gracefully setting the tone for a peaceful and emotional ceremony. In addition, the rustling leaves and floral-lined aisle created an intimate moment guests will remember for years.

Reception at Stone Mill

After the vows, guests moved to the stunning Stone Mill venue for the reception. Stone Mill is the ideal location for couples who want the best of both worlds — a breathtaking outdoor ceremony and a sophisticated indoor celebration. The reception space offered views of the gardens while providing a warm and inviting atmosphere inside.

Tables were elegantly set with delicate floral centerpieces. Each one featured pastel blooms that perfectly matched the day’s color scheme. Additionally, personalized menus at each place setting added a bespoke touch for their guests.

One of the most touching elements of the evening was a special table filled with framed photos from past family and friends’ weddings. It was a deeply personal and nostalgic moment that had guests smiling, reminiscing, and feeling even more connected to the celebration.

Dancing Under the Stars

As the sun set, the party truly began. Shortly after, the couple shared their first dance as newlyweds. From there, guests danced the night away, joyfully celebrating a love story that was just as beautiful and timeless as the venue itself.
