Chamonix + Jim’s Manhattan Penthouse Wedding

Categories: Wedding

Jim and I go way back. In a previous life we worked together designing Swiss Army stuff. He’s a tremendous artist and illustrator (seriously) and has an uncanny ability to find the best food within a  500 yard radius of wherever he is. It’s his gift and his curse.

Jim’s a pretty laid back guy and it takes a lot to get him to show  extremes of emotion. Chamonix is one of this things that just causes him  to explode from his zen-like state into that of a giddy schoolgirl. It  was obvious whenever he talked about her that he loved her more than  just about anything.

And who could blame him. Chamonix is the personification of that  amazing dress – beautiful, elegant, unique, a little offbeat, and  completely awesome.

Their day was the personification of the two of them – photos in various parts of New York City, a wonderfully intimate venue, and the most amazing cookies I’ve ever had in my life (and trust me when I say I’m a connoisseur). I  was thrilled and honored to be there and couldnt be happier for them.

    We felt privileged to have officiated at Chamonix and Jim’s wedding. It was intimate and elegant at the same time. It was pure class, thoughtfully executed. An original! I love the diverse backgrounds which reflect the life found in New York. I love how the photographer was able to capture the little things — the nuances, the emotions, the expressions, the hope for a future bright with good things in store. Jim and Chamonix were very deliberate in their choice of people/ things that would make up this very special day. Certainly we felt special that we were chosen to be a significant part of it! We love them and hold them in our prayers.

    These are some great photos. I love the specialty ones – the one in front of Flatiron, the one in the subway… great work. It was great just being a part of their special day.
