There’s something electric about wedding mornings. The stillness before the rush. The laughter in the rooms. The quiet nerves and the little moments no one else sees. On the morning of their wedding, Tom and Liv spent their morning just floors apart at The Pierre NY, each tucked away in a different suite of the Manhattan hotel before they exchanged vows and celebrated with an epic NYC wedding reception. Planned with the help of Detailed Events by Lo and captured by Abbey Regnier Photography, this wedding was the epitome of NYC fashion meets wedding industry.
