In anticipation of Valentine's Day, Serendipity3 -- the iconic NYC restaurant -- is letting fans get married for free at its NYC locations. NYC residents and tourists can dine at the restaurant, having brought their marriage license in with them, and spontaneously get married for free on Valentine’s Day.
Serendipity3 is collaborating with the 10-Time Tony Award winner, Moulin Rouge! The Musical, to gift tickets to the show to the first 3 newlywed couples in New York. Furthermore, the brand will provide ice cream pints from Serendipity Brands to every couple that gets married that day.
The company has also created a 'Moulin Rouge! The Musical - Red Velvet Frrrozen Hot Chocolate' to celebrate Valentine's Day this weekend. The new treat features a decadent, spectacular mix of red velvet flavored Frrrozen Hot Chocolate in a Cream Cheese Frosted Goblet, with a Crunchy Red Velvet Crumble Rim, Topped with a Glitzy Mountain of Whipped Cream, Chocolate Shavings, and a Romantic Red Heart. This exclusive treat will be available from Thursday, February 10th until Monday, February 14th.
"There is no restaurant in NYC more romantic than Serendipity3 and we have cherished our special moments with those who dine in with us since 1957," said Creative Director of Serendipity3, Chef Joe Calderone, "we are so excited to officially declare February 14th as 'Marry Me Day at Serendipity3' and spice up the romance during the love-filled holiday with Moulin Rouge! The Musical."
