New York City has often been the backdrop for romantic comedies—and for good reason. The city exudes charm, magic, and a significant amount of love, as one TikTok user recently discovered.

While walking through Central Park, the user unexpectedly came upon a young couple exchanging vows and getting married. “@maddieinmanhattan” shared the moment in a video, captioning it: “Didn’t expect to cry on my walk through Central Park today, but here we are. Congrats to the bride and groom.”
The brief clip, showing the newlyweds kissing as onlookers applauded, resonated deeply with TikTok users. Many expressed joy at witnessing the public display of “Black love,” particularly appreciating seeing the Black bride so openly adored by her man. Comments included: “I love seeing Black women be loved,” “I love black love,” and “My favorite thing in the world is to see black women find a good love.”
The bride looked like a real-life princess in a puffy wedding dress, with a long veil that swept across the floor as her husband hugged and kissed her. And their love for each other could not have been more evident as they locked in for a tight embrace, not shy about the eyes (and cameras) on them.
Folks in the comments noted the couple’s obvious adoration for each other and wished the same for themselves.
“If my man don’t do this then I don’t want him,” wrote one user.
“THIS IS THE KIND OF ENTHUSIASM I WANT,” added another.
“He could not wait to seal that deal with a kiss. Congratulations,” commented another.
“Awww I pray I see more angles and find them through my fyp,” wrote another user who could not get enough of the cuteness.
