New York City is arguable one of the most exciting cities on Earth.  With the constant bustle of people walking around, cabs honking, and the lights in Times Square on 24 hours per day, there is plenty to capture your attention and time.  One of the most relaxing parts of the city is Central Park located on the middle part of Manhattan, nestled in between the East and West sides of the city.  The park offers walking paths, horseback riding, and carriage rides, and is the host to many weddings each year. 

Home to many religions and spiritual services including marriage counseling, NYC continues to be a much needed and beneficial to helping people strengthen and enrich their commitments to each other.  In addition to the large Central Park, consider stopping Bryant Park¹ where they show free old movie screenings.  Families and couples can join the locals who gather to enjoy and anticipate what is up and coming.  Take a stroll up Madison Avenue with your relationship partner on the Upper East Side of the city.  Be sure to have an old fashioned tea service at the Ritz Carlton and if possible get a group together and dress up to make it truly memorable.  Stop in at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel to have an appetizer in their Bull and Bear Lounge and make sure that you take a tour of Wall Street.
