Why Choose Bethesda Terrace for a Central Park Elopement?
Bethesda Terrace is one of the most sought-after locations for a Central Park elopement because of its covered arches, iconic staircase, and proximity to the Angel of the Waters fountain.
As a Central Park wedding photographer, I often recommend this area for intimate ceremonies thanks to its timeless architecture and beautiful light throughout the year.
This intimate Central Park wedding at Bethesda Terrace was filled with personal touches, from her tea-length dress to their yellow taxi ride through New York City.
The couple chose to elope with just five family members, beginning their day at a stylish Manhattan hotel for getting ready photos and a first look. After a short taxi ride and stroll through the park, they exchanged vows beneath the iconic arches of Bethesda Terrace.
Following the ceremony, we stopped by the nearby Angel of the Waters fountain before heading downtown for ice cream and portraits among the colorful streets and graffiti of the Lower East Side.
For this couple, it was the perfect New York elopement—simple, meaningful, and uniquely their own.
