NEW YORK, Feb. 26 (UPI) -- A New York couple's lawsuit against the venue that hosted their wedding reception alleges their special day was ruined by jungle-like temperatures.

Michael Dvorkin and Ambre Brandis said a broken air conditioner at the site, 632 on Hudson, caused temperatures to rise above 100 degrees during the June 2008 event, the New York Post reported Friday.

"Mr. Dvorkin and Ms. Brandis do not keep a public wedding album (because) everybody ... has red and puffy faces, and their clothes are wet," the suit states.

Papers filed by attorneys for the couple said they "found the conditions almost unbearably hot."

Karen Lishinsky, owner of 632 on Hudson, described the suit as "frivolous" and said she hadn't received any previous complaints from the couple.
