At the Empire State Building, here come the Valentine’s Day brides

The Empire State Building opens one day a year–Valentine’s Day–to brides and grooms who want to get married in the iconic New York City landmark. Here are the 14 brides getting married in individual ceremonies today (the photographs were taken Friday).

Brides line up at the 86th Floor observation deck of the Empire State Building.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all!
