Last month Joe & I had the opportunity to shoot [belated] anniversary photos with our wedding photographer in Central Park! Fortunately we’ve been able to shoot our engagement photos & wedding photos with the same amazing photographer. Michele and her husband, Andrew, were in town and we met up for a beautiful shoot. I’ve wanted to take couple photos in Central Park since I moved to New York over three years ago. We ended up with some beautiful photos!
We were able to shoot in some of our favorite areas of the park: Bethesda Fountain, the Bow Bridge, & the Ramble. We even got a few stoop photos – we all know how much I love a good New York City stoop.
New York has been such a significant chapter in our lives. We moved here right after getting engaged. We got our first apartment together on the Upper East Side. We planned our entire wedding here. We adopted our fur baby, Nutmeg. It was the perfect way to end our time in New York and this incredible chapter in our lives.
While we shared tons of our special day in our wedding video, you only heard a portion of our vows. I thought it would be fun to share each of our vows [we wrote them ourselves!] along with our favorite photos.
Mollie’s Vows:
I see vows, not as promises, but as privileges: I get to love you each and every day. I get to always be honest with you and communicate fully and fearlessly. I get to laugh with you, go on adventures wth you, and most importantly raise a cat with you. And maybe someday even a child or two.
I give you my heart. And it will be my privilege to walk with you, hand in hand, wherever our journey leads us, living, learning loving together, forever. I choose you as the person with whom I will spend my life. And I will choose you over and over again every single day.
I love you unconditionally.
Joe’s Vows:
Five years ago, a night with friends has become something incredible. Your love and care has taken me on a journey to many new places and to a life across the country. Our adventures have been the most amazing and fun parts of my life and I can only dream of all the greatness to come.
On this day, I promise you, my Mollie bug, to be the most trusting, understanding, and happiest Joe-bug I can be. To be there next to you through good, bad, and stressful times. You are the most beautiful person, inside and out, and I am the lucky one because you have already given me everything I’ve ever wanted.
I love you my Mollie-bug.
I hope you enjoyed seeing our anniversary photos!

Once you get through initial "I know what's best" attitude of the manager here, you will agree that – he DOES know what's best, and he does not treat you like just some paycheck. During my wedding at Seattle Wedding venues, the wait staff was absolutely the best.
