The Summerhouse at the Dene in Central Park provided a beautiful location for Jason and Christopher’s wedding. The handsome grooms reached out to our studio seeking an all-inclusive elopement package with photography, video and officiant and our team was honored to be a part of their day. The wooden pavilion sits on the top of a hill and has wooden benches for seating. A smaller version of Cop Cot (another wooden structure in Central Park), Dene Summerhouse is a great option for intimate weddings like Jason and Christophers. The pair started with our photographer and videographer in the Dene (an English word for “valley”) where they captured great shots of the grooms with the NYC Skyline. Their ceremony included a romantic ceremony performed by our friend Rev. Samora followed by a celebratory dinner at a local restaurant.

Central Park is one of the most popular places to elope in NYC; with good reason! The landmark offers tons of beautiful outdoor places to elope, like Dene Summerhouse, that are both easily accessible and semi-private. The rustic structure is nestled on top of a high rock and offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of NYC! Our elopement team love working at Dene Summerhouse and always recommend it as a less busy alternative to Cop Cot (another rustic Central Park elopement location).
