We are trying to plan a trip for our 5th year anniversary. It would be two nights and we would have to fly in. Is the enough time to see the city? If so, what are the main points we should hit and if anyone has any recommendations on where to stay that would be great! Thanks!
Re: New York
You could see some of the city in that time. You'd need years to see it all so don't worry about it. Just choose a few things to see and enjoy it
Time of year? Budget?
Our wedding on Wilson Island!
I've lived 10 miles away from the city for my entire life and still haven't seen it all, so don't even try in two days, you'll exhaust yourself and not enjoy what you do see. What is important to you... museums, destinations like Times Square, Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, or seeing an area such as The Village?
You could look into one of the double decker buses that allow you to hop on and off for a 24 hour period to maximize what you are able to see.
what are you guys interested in:
the famous landmarks?
museums/art?
shopping/entertainment?
2 nights is tough but if you narrow down what your interested in ic an throw some ideas out for you
have fun nyc is the best!
FYI -- the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are currently closed because of Hurricane Sandy. That might change before your trip. Just check the National Parks site before you spend time trying to head out there. You can always just see it from Battery Park or other places around downtown.
Don't fear the subway. It's a quick/easy/cheap way to get around town.

Not sure what your budget is or whether you want to go someplace trendy or more low-key, but our favorites include Momofuku Noodle Bar, Balthazar, Red Rooster in Harlem, 44 1/2 (for brunch), and Calliope.
