Although tens of thousands of US weddings have been postponed, plenty of couples are still going ahead with their plans.
Precautionary measures and smaller gatherings are allowing people to wed while prioritizing safety. If you’re planning your upcoming wedding in Harlem, choosing the perfect ring, venue and cake are important considerations that can help you create your dream day.
Choosing an engagement ring
In addition to having wedding bands for the ceremony, you’ll need to choose the right engagement ring for the proposal. If it’s not easy for you to shop in-store at the moment, you can still find an amazing ring by shopping online. You’ll just need to have the right finger measurements. In particular, a classic diamond solitaire ring is still regarded as a popular and timeless choice; this style is available in a variety of shapes like oval, round and princess-cut. Although they offer maximum sparkle, round diamonds are the most expensive option. Alternatively, elongated rings make a trendy and bold statement. They feature striking diamonds in various different shapes longer than they are wide.
Local venues
No matter your budget and needs, Harlem has plenty of wedding venues to choose from. Built-in 1905, the Alhambra Ballroom is a beautiful historic venue that specializes in wedding packages. For the price of roughly $12,000, you can get a delicious wedding cake, limousine transportation, and the ballroom for up to five hours of use (it fits 125 guests). Alternatively, Riverside Church is an elegant venue with stunning architecture, beautiful views, and a welcoming atmosphere; there’s numerous event spaces to choose from. The beautiful Nave is perfect for medium to large weddings, while the Meditation Chapel is suited for very small gatherings.
Wedding cake
No wedding is complete without a cake and there’s no shortage of amazing vendors and bakeries in Harlem. For example, Make My Cake makes wedding cakes both traditional and modern in design, either as simple or elaborate as you desire. Whether you want a diamond, heart-shaped, round or square design, they can create the ideal wedding cake for your special day.

The cakes are also made with fresh ingredients and without preservatives. Alternatively, B Cake NY takes custom orders. You’ll first have an initial consultation and flavor tasting to plan your dream cake.
Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence, and it’s important you get right. Choosing the perfect ring, venue and cake will help ensure your big day goes off without a hitch.
