New York has some of the most iconic Instagram spots in the world; you might have even seen most of them in your feed.
But let us refresh your memory with a list of some of the most iconic Instagram spots in NYC:
📍Top of the Rock — for a stunning vista overlooking Central Park and Lower Manhattan (including the Empire State Building.)
📍The Oculus — for an undeniably striking image of the futuristic rib-like skylight that makes up the ceiling.
📍Brooklyn Bridge — whether it is in the actual bridge or as a backdrop, this location is one of the most Instagrammable spots.
📍Flatiron Building — one of the city’s more unusual buildings and a favorite of architecture fans.
📍Times Square — a tourist nest but a favorite nonetheless. For a bird’s eye view of Times Square, go to the 8th floor of the New York Marriott Marquis.

Being a new mom is worth a celebration — a new life, a new mom, a new chapter in your journey. And while baby showers are the traditional way to celebrate, you need more than that as a new mom!
Here are some fun ideas to celebrate new moms:
🤍 Sip and see: A sip-and-see focuses more on seeing the baby, and the presents are primarily for the baby instead of the mother.
🤍 Blessingway: A tradition inspired by Navajo ceremonies. It celebrates a woman’s passage into motherhood.
🤍 Co-Ed Shower: A co-ed shower includes the important men in the mother-to-be’s life and the women.
🤍 Postpartum Party: Similar to a sip-and-see but focused on the mom instead of the new baby.
🤍 Babymoon: This type of getaway is a trip where the parents-to-be can take some time away to enjoy themselves before the baby arrives.

“When I say I love you more, I don’t mean I love you more than you love me.
I mean I love you more than the bad days ahead of us, I love you more than any fight we will ever have.
I love you more than the distance between us, I love you more than any obstacle that could try and come between us. I love you the most.”
