I am a professional wedding celebrant who has officiated weddings all over New York City, and in many other cities. Now, I also do walking tours, as a Licensed NYC Sightseeing Guide. I love meeting new people, walking around and sharing my knowledge of NYC. I've lived in NYC since 1992. I have traveled all over Europe and done walking tours in many cities. I like to keep my tours fun. I'm also involved with the Guides Association of NY and with Big Apple Greeter.
Central Park Wedding Tour
Central Park is the place to get married and elope: but which spot has the best views and backdrops? Which spot is the most private? Which one is near a good restaurant?
Chris Shelley is an experienced New York Wedding Officiant who has been marrying people (to each other) since 2011.
Please note that this tour is about wedding locations and NOT about Central Park History.
I will be in front of The Lotos Club on 66th St., between 5th Ave and Madison. I will have a black bag strapped across my shoulder. I look like the British game show personality Rob Brydon.
Cop Cot sees hundreds of weddings a year. This shaded gazebo nearly keeps people dry when it rains and looks great in photos. It's close to Central Park South, easy to find, and easily accessible if you're cool with climbing a hill.
Very scenic spot, perfect for photos with the west side skyline. If you like watching proposals happen, wait here 5-10 minutes and you will probably see one.
Yes, it's a hill -- but a hill with great views! It's a lovely place for photos, for lounging, and for getting married.
The Belvedere Castle sits atop a hill with amazing views. We can't enter the castle itself, but there is a covered gazebo here.
A scenic gazebo atop a hill, great views of the Manhattan skyline, great for photos, accessible to 5th Ave.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
