A Sentimental & Lively Sunday Celebration Surrounded by Flowers

Zoe and Hugh’s wedding day was a perfect blend of emotion and celebration, marking a Sunday that will be remembered for many years to come. From the heartfelt vows exchanged under a stunning floral-covered chuppah to the lively dance floor that kept guests moving (and singing!) all night, every moment was filled with love and joy.

The Madison Club provided the ideal setting for Zoe and Hugh’s wedding, with its versatile spaces each lending a unique character to each part of the celebration. As guests arrived, they were greeted by the timeless elegance of the venue, setting the tone for a day that was as sentimental as it was vibrant.

The ceremony took place in the beautifully adorned “butterfly” room, where a breathtaking chuppah, draped in lush florals, became the focal point. As Zoe and Hugh stood beneath it, their vows and love story brought tears to the eyes of many, capturing the deep connection and commitment they share. The mix of deep Jewish tradition and personal touches (including their dog, Groot, as the officiall ring bearer!) made this moment truly unforgettable. After the ceremony, guests moved to the lower level of the Club, where the atmosphere shifted to one of lively celebration. The neutral and summery color palette added a fresh and airy feel, perfect for a Sunday event. As the evening progressed, the dance floor, opened by Zoe & Hugh’s first “song” (the two of them met singing in a college a cappella group), became the heart of the reception, packed with guests who were eager to celebrate their love.

Zoe and Hugh’s wedding day was a beautiful testament to their rich family traditions and love story, full of tender moments and joyous celebration. Z&H, we wish you and your families our very best – warm congratulations!!
