Rooftop Elegance Shines At This 620 Loft & Garden Wedding Featured in Party Slate

This was a perfect NYC wedding!  It took place at 620 Loft & Garden, one of the most iconic and romantic venues in New York City. Located above Fifth Avenue, this rooftop space feels like a true escape from the busy city below. With fresh greenery and a backdrop of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, it has that rare mix of city energy and peaceful charm. It’s a very interesting feeling to be surrounded by skyscrapers while walking through a garden in the sky.

I was a lead makeup artist and hairstylist for the bride and bridal party.

For Meredith’s look, she wanted to keep it natural, fresh, and timeless. We went with glowing skin, a soft rosy flush on the cheeks, champagne tones on her eyelids, and a pinky-nude lip that felt effortless and romantic. Just enough to enhance her features while still feeling completely like herself.

Her hairstyle was a soft half-up, half-down look. I gave her a little bit volume at the crown and let the rest fall into loose effortless waves. With a few soft framing pieces this wedding hairstyle wasn’t stiff and moved beautifully.

I stayed for touch ups through the first look and ceremony. July heat can be intense, we walked to the venue through the city and having me there was a good decision, because it meant she stayed fresh and photo-ready the whole time. I also helped her place the veil before the ceremony and removed it afterward, making sure we touched up, added some curl to her hair, and soften the frizz after removing the veil. These small transitions really matter and help the day flow with ease.

It was an honor to work with the team of one of the best wedding vendors in NYC:

Alinato Events handled and executed the planning beautifully, Trisha Jay Photography captured all the moments, and Designs by Ahn brought the florals to life. Pinch Food Design kept everyone well-fed, A Simple Cake nailed the sweets, and the vibes were perfect thanks to Stellar Strings NYC and Miss DJ Dune. NST Pictures filmed it all, June Events brought the photo booth fun, and rentals from Taylor Creative Inc. and Party Rental Ltd. tied it all together.

Meredith was glowing from the first look to the last dance. I truly love what I do, and weddings like this remind me why.
