"Love was on the menu at Junior's in Downtown Brooklyn on the morning of Feb. 13, as four couples renewed their wedding vows inside the iconic eatery known for its world-famous cheesecakes. The couples, selected from over 1,000 submissions nationwide, traveled from across the country to participate in the ceremony. Each shared personal stories about how Junior's had played a meaningful role in their relationships - from first dates to anniversary traditions."
"The Valentine's season vow renewal marked the restaurant's third such event, following a hiatus in 2025. Organizers said the overwhelming response this year reflects the enduring place Junior's holds not just in Brooklyn's culinary scene, but in couples' love stories as well. Alan Rosen, the third-generation owner of Junior's, was ordained as a minister for the occasion by the American Marriage Ministries, and looking forward to officiating the vow renewals of the four couples."
""I love love, and I'm really looking forward to celebrating with these four lovely couples," Rosen said, emphasizing that he is single. "The world is so divided today that we thought we had to bring it back and bring people together and kick off this Valentine's weekend the right way. It's putting me in a good mood, and I'm really looking forward to celebrating with these four lovely couples.""
