Wedding at Liberty House Restaurant | Julia & Joe

Julia and Joe’s Liberty House wedding was a beautiful celebration of love and culture. Their day featured NYC stunning views, meaningful traditions, and heartfelt moments, making it truly unforgettable.

These two began their day at the Hyatt Regency Jersey City, where the excitement was palpable. Julia’s suite was bustling with laughter and anticipation as her bridesmaids helped prepare for the day. Joe, in his suite, shared lighthearted moments with his twin brother and the rest of his family.

The ceremony took place at Ss Nicholas, Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church in Roseland, NJ. Julia’s Greek heritage was beautifully celebrated through the ceremonial customs, including the crowning and the blessing.

Afterward, we headed to Liberty State Park for their wedding portraits. The park offered panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline providing an iconic setting. Julia and Joe’s joy and love were evident in every shot, and the golden light of the late afternoon made the shoot even more magical.

The day concluded with a reception at Liberty House, where guests were captivated by the floor-to-ceiling windows and outdoor terraces that showcased the dazzling NYC skyline. Guests enjoyed delicious cuisine, lively music, and a night of dancing, all while celebrating the happy couple.
