February 28th, 2011 by Bri The thing about weddings, or any special occasion for that matter, is that it seems to go by in a blink.

February 5th, 2011 by Bri Most Romantic Spots in NYC
As someone who loves New York, it’s only natural that Manhattan would make the perfect backdrop when you are looking for where to go for a Valentine’s Day celebration. Take a walk with me to some of the most romantic spots in NYC from TV and films:
The Empire State Building
One of New York’s most recognizable landmarks, it stands at 102 floors of Art Deco-inspired splendor. Located on Fifth Avenue and West 34th Street, it has been featured in hundreds of movies and has been named by the American Society of Civil Engineers as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. From the infamous movie King Kong, to the hit film Independence Day…New York City romantics will best equate this spot with love stories in movies like the view of the observation deck in Sleepless in Seattle, starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.
