Some love stories are worth the wait. Megan and Riley first met during the end of their senior year at Notre Dame and started their relationship long distance. Through every season and every mile between them, they built something steady and lasting—leading up to this unforgettable day at Midtown Loft & Terrace in New York City.



Getting Ready: Skyline Views & Sentimental Moments
Megan and her girls spent the morning getting ready at the Royalton Park Avenue Hotel, just blocks from the venue. The suite’s city views and soft natural light made for dreamy, elegant portraits. Riley and his groomsmen got ready onsite in the venue’s private lounge—laughing, helping each other with ties, and soaking in the quiet before the day unfolded.



The soft-blue color palette wove through both spaces in details like dresses, robes, and florals, setting the tone for a classic, romantic celebration.
The First Look on the Terrace
We kicked things off with a first look on Midtown’s iconic rooftop terrace. With skyline views and the Empire State Building peeking in the background, Megan and Riley shared an emotional moment away from the bustle of the day. It was the perfect balance of intimate and cinematic.



Ceremony in the Loft
Their ceremony took place in the airy loft space, where polished wood floors and expansive windows made the perfect backdrop for heartfelt vows and joyful tears. Subtle blue accents tied everything together—from the florals at the altar to the ribbon on Megan’s bouquet.






Cocktails, Dinner & Dancing
Guests enjoyed cocktails on the terrace under the golden evening light before heading back into the loft for dinner and dancing. The soft-blue color story continued in the table settings and florals, creating an atmosphere that was both elevated and personal. Every part of the reception—from the speeches to the packed dance floor—reflected Megan and Riley’s deep connection and the love surrounding them.






Seamless Planning with The Day Of Company
The day flowed flawlessly thanks to The Day Of Company, who handled everything behind the scenes with warmth and professionalism. Their team ensured vendors were coordinated, the timeline stayed on track, and that Megan and Riley could truly be present with their people. It’s always a joy working with a team that cares this much.
