I am on my way to New York again for our fashion/cover shoot and wanted to share a little New York love with this wedding. Not sure how many of you know about Max & Chloe jewelry, but it makes for great gift ideas for your maids or moms, and they even have a great selection of diamond and fine jewelry pieces for the bride. Owned by the couple we are featuring today, Jamie Rubin and Arnold Kovelman’s New York City wedding was an elegant and contemporary Jewish ceremony followed by a grand reception at Capitale. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Jamie Rubin and Arnold Kovelman
Married in New York, New York on June 13
Jamie Rubin and Arnold Kovelman met at the Maritime Hotel in New York on a beautiful summer night. They almost instantly knew that they complimented each other perfectly, and after dating for only a few months they started a jewelry business together. Not realizing where it would take them, their business grew very quickly and so did their love and respect for one another.
Being in the jewelry business, “Arnold custom designed a gorgeous radiant-cut diamond ring that was a total surprise,” remembers Jamie. “On our three-year anniversary we got engaged at the spot of our first date.” From the moment they got engaged they knew that they would get married in New York City since it is where they met and fell in love.
“Capitale has amazing architecture and an elegant feel that made us choose it for our venue,” says Jamie. “We wanted to keep our décor very modern and glamorous without being overdone.” During the ceremony they wanted the ceiling to be lit up in blue so that it would feel like the sky. For the reception, lucite candles and white flowers were used along with lighting to give the room a glow. While it rained on Jamie and Arnold’s wedding day, Jamie smiled pointing out that it is said to bring good luck and fortune. “We had a perfect wedding and start to our new life together,” she says.
