3. In the city that never sleeps, there's always something for out-of-town guests to do!

4. Your wedding menu can be catered by one of the many world-class chefs located in the city.

5. Unique transportation options can take you and your guests to and from the ceremony and reception. Two of our favorite companies are Vintage NYC Taxi Cabs and FilmCars.

6. New York City is home to international artists who can entertain your guests during cocktails or the reception. Some of our favorite entertainers include Anthony Morgan's choir, pianist Danny Mixon and Cuban band Quimbombó.

7. You can celebrate till morning because many New York City venues don't have a curfew or set closing time.

8. Having a religious ceremony? You can hold it in a world-famous church or temple such as St. Patrick's Cathedral or Central Synagogue.

9. Host your wedding afterparty at a hot club in the Meatpacking District.
