Rishi & Natalie
Some love stories unfold in the most perfect ways. Rishi and Natalie’s proposal was one of them. We first met Rishi when he was a groomsman at Alexa and Nishaad’s wedding. So when he called Josiah to start planning his proposal in Central Park, we were beyond thrilled!
Rishi chose the perfect spot just over the Bow Bridge in Central Park, down by the water overlooking The San Remo. On a crisp October day, he got down on one knee, and Natalie’s reaction was pure joy. Just when she thought the surprise was over, her parents and his parents appeared, making the moment even sweeter.
After she said yes, we wandered through Central Park for some “just engaged” portraits. We strolled through Sheep Meadow, a special spot where they had their first date. The autumn leaves, city skyline, and their glowing smiles made every photo feel timeless.
Then came the next surprise: a Maybach was waiting to whisk them away. They popped champagne in the backseat, called friends, and soaked in the excitement. Their final stop? A private dinner at Don Angie in the West Village with a handful of close friends and family.
The evening was warm and intimate. Guests enjoyed cocktails before sitting down for a multi-course meal. Family members shared heartfelt toasts, offering well wishes to the soon-to-be-married couple. Laughter, love, and celebration filled the space.
Rishi’s proposal was everything a proposal should be: thoughtful, personal, and filled with love. We feel so lucky to have captured it all. Congratulations, Rishi and Natalie! Your wedding will be just as incredible, and we hope to celebrate with you again!
