As they descend the stairs at the Modern Duplex Event/Gallery Space in Manhattan, the bride and groom appear as if they are part of a modern art installation that showcases the winding journey that they will take together as husband and wife.
With both the bride and groom having a background in fine art, it only made sense that they would host an eclectic and detailed ceremony in an art gallery in New York City. Blending timeless tradition with modern art elements, this couple created an experience that was both esthetically pleasing and emotionally engaging.
The wedding took place at the Modern Duplex Event/Gallery Space in Manhattan, which is housed in a historic building on the Upper East Side that was designed by famed architect Paul Rudolph. In fact, it's the only one of Rudolph's buildings that is currently open to the public. By selecting this venue, the couple was able to weave their passion for art into every aspect of their wedding ceremony and showcase their love in a real and authentic way.
