New Year’s Eve Wedding at The New Haven Lawn Club in New Haven, CT | Leanne & Gary
A NEW YEAR’S EVE WEDDING AT NEW HAVEN LAWN CLUB
Arturo and I ended our 2023 season at the New Haven Lawn Club with Leanne and Gary’s New Year’s Eve wedding celebration. It was an epic way to finish our busiest year yet! Complete with an incredible couple, a venue with stunning Art Deco architecture, PLUS a midnight confetti drop, Gary and Leanne’s wedding day was truly one to remember.
We began our day with the bride and groom as they each got ready for the day’s festivities. Leanne’s bridal style was timeless with just the right touch of glam; Gary also went for a classic style in a perfect black tux. The two met in front of New Haven Lawn Club for their first look, and their reactions were unmatched! Gary almost couldn’t contain his excitement when he saw Leanne. They each had smiles beaming from ear to ear as they embraced each other that afternoon!
Later that evening, the bride and groom were married in the main ballroom of the New Haven Lawn Club in front of 200 family members and friends. The ceremony was beautiful and romantic as the ballroom’s lights were dimmed and the light of the candles flickered around us. After exchanging their personal vows and wedding rings, Gary and Leanne were pronounced husband and wife! Expressions of pure joy came across each of their faces before leaning in for their first kiss. Guests clapped and cheered around them as the newlyweds made their way back up the aisle, ready to get their party started!
The new Mr. & Mrs. were celebrated late into the night with sweet toasts and endless energy on the dance floor. The anticipation to ring in 2024 grew as it got closer to midnight. The 10-second countdown began as everyone held a glass of champagne ready to toast to the new year. At the stroke of 12, confetti blasted out over the crowd and filled the entire ballroom! The newlyweds raised their glasses and shared a midnight kiss, all while their friends and family cheered together around them.
Congratulations Leanne and Gary! Thank you for ending our wedding season on such a high note!
