The Dumbo Loft 

4.3

Brooklyn, NY
  • Venue
  • Up to 140 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $3,000

Built in 1891, the renovated The Dumbo Loft is an adaptable space with high ceilings, beautiful wood columns, hardwood flooring, and exposed brick walls. The loft’s large windows overlook the interior of the magnificent district of DUMBO with original cobblestone streets and expansive Manhattan Bridge archways. Brooklyn Bridge Park, only a few steps away makes for tremendous photos and outdoor ceremonies.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding reception of 115 people was at The Dumbo Loft on October 21, 2023. First of all, it was the best decision ever to have our wedding events in Dumbo. Our out-of-town guests were enchanted by the neighborhood (despite LOTS of construction around), especially after we walked from the ferry at Brooklyn Bridge Park. The Dumbo Loft is a vacant space, great for couples who are looking for a blank slate to dress up however they'd like. The wood beams and exposed brick were a great backdrop for our evening wedding. We worked with RFC Productions to set up some uplighting on the walls and beautiful icicle lights over the dance floor. Paired with tons of (fake) candles, it ended up being a very beautiful setting for our reception. The folks at BK Venues could not have been more accommodating. They allowed us access to the space anytime we requested it. There was a ton of construction happening in the area during our wedding month, and they made sure to keep us posted on everything that was going on. The BK Venue spaces are pretty no-frills, and when we sent a list of small tweaks we noticed (a broken doorknob here, a broken coat rack there), they were extremely responsive and did their best to address everything we listed. All in all, I'm so happy we went with The Dumbo Loft - the event went extremely well and we got lots of compliments on the space!

Our careful DJ-Matchmaking, "Music-First" Philosophy, and Easy Planning Platform will infuse your big day with the ultimate style and personality. Serving Boston, Brooklyn, Rhode Island, Maine and beyond.

Beat Train Productions is simply the best. Our families are very into music, so we knew we needed a fantastic DJ. Joel was AMAZING. With very little direction from us, he gave us the perfect balance of classic Spanish dancing musing (salsa, bachata, cha-cha), in the beginning, with the standard wedding music everyone loves (love shack, shout, etc.), with our music. The dance floor was packed all night long. We had several people comment on how incredible our music was, and how they had never seen a dance floor that packed all night long. We had a blast, and truly have Joel to thank for that. I would recommend him and Beat Train every single time. He was incredible!!

Vik Photography 

5.0

Brooklyn, NY
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style

Central to the art of capturing our most treasured moments in a non-manufactured fashion is the photographer’s ability to put his subject at ease. Vik approaches his work holistically with this in mind. His photography is unforced and confidently guided by his artistic vision, recognizing that more is at stake than a photograph. His sensitivities extend beyond lighting, pose, and composition, reaching deeper into mood, context, and flow.

Awarded Best of Zola
To say that Vik is the the best is an understatement. He was perfect. Everything from the quality of his work to his demeanor and professionalism. He put us at such ease to the point where some of the best moments of the day were when it was simply the three of us. His demeanor is calming. We were relaxed around him, which allowed us to be ourselves and, as a result, our pictures were sincere, honest and magical.

After working five years for well respected designers in Manhattan and Brooklyn I decided to open my own floral studio. Stolen Magnolia was opened in February of 2020, a month before the pandemic. We have been safely serving our community and couples since the day we opened our doors.

Delilah and her team were a joy to work with—her work is absolutely stunning and she was in constant communication with us. We received so many compliments on our flowers and she perfectly executed our vision. They even quickly replaced a lost boutonnière on my wedding day. I wholeheartedly recommend Stolen Magnolia and will be using them for my future floral needs.

Joshua Zuckerman Photography 

5.0

Brooklyn, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

Hello! Thank you for visiting my page. Candid moments, humor and a refined eye are the hallmarks of my photography. Hard work, experience and a love for what I do make it all come together. Born in Minnesota I road-tripped to New York City some 15 years ago to pursue my photography dreams. My then-girlfriend of 2 weeks, Lisa, was riding shotgun in the U-Haul. Fast forward to today and I am blessed to call Lisa my wife and Brooklyn our home. We have two wonderful girls, Ava and Ruby, that bring me endless joy. I’m hopelessly addicted to tennis! My door is always open to new ideas and projects. Please drop me a line. Josh

Josh is by far the most professional, creative, and easy to work with photographer ever!!!! He does an amazing job capturing all the little moments of your wedding day that you'll treasure forever. The grandmother's smile, your dad tearing up when he sees you in the dress, the partner's face when you walk down the aisle, your best friend's listening to the toasts, that hidden kiss from your new husband ... the list goes on. If you want the specialness of your day captured with an artistic eye who knows how to get those shots -- (vs. endless posed couple shots) then Josh is the photographer for your wedding. Can't recommend him enough.

Tim Ryan Smith Photography 

5.0

Brooklyn, NY
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,000

My work is focused on carefully crafting imagery that is wonderfully spontaneous and natural. I discovered wedding photography about 15 years ago and I was instantly hooked on capturing these magical fleeting iconic moments in people's lives.

We were fortunate enough to be put in touch with Tim by another photographer prior to our wedding. Tim's work speaks for itself - his photos are stunning and he's unbelievable at what he does. It was after our first conversation on the phone, however, that we knew we wanted to work with him. He's incredibly personable and goes above and beyond in getting to know his clients. We met up several times leading up to our wedding and also had him take photos during our engagement party which we thoroughly treasure. On the day of the wedding, Tim was a calming presence for us. It felt like he was a longtime friend which helped put us at ease and he offered really useful advice which we appreciated. He successfully guided the wedding party and our large families, keeping us on track prior to the ceremony and throughout the reception. Tim quickly shared a preview of the photos with us, just days after the wedding. We received our full gallery approximately one month later and we could not be more thrilled with the final product. Our friends and family cannot stop talking about how beautiful the photos are. We would absolutely recommend Tim and hope to find an excuse to work with him again someday.

Garrett & Tamara

Brooklyn, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1,000

Garrett & Tamara are a New York-based musical duo and songwriting team. The couple's journey began in 2015 after matching on the popular dating app, Tinder. The two quickly bonded over their love of music and began writing and performing together. On stage, they weave together a uniquely vibrant fusion of classic r&b/soul and contemporary singer/songwriter, rich with two part vocal harmonies and lush guitar arrangements.

Garrett and Tamara were beyond anything we could have hoped for. They were so easy to work with leading up to the wedding (even when we changed songs quite a few times). They played our ceremony and cocktail hour and made both feel so special. They are not only insanely talented but just the nicest people as well. Highly highly recommend Garrett and Tamara for your wedding!!

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny is an absolutely wonderful person and amazing photographer. So kind, friendly, organized and talented. She is a pleasure to work with always. She listens to your needs, guides you through the process, and delivers work that showcases all of the love and fun of your day.

We got married in April 2022 and had a wonderful experience working with the team at Glasserie Events.

We knew we were in good hands from beginning to end! The team at Glasserie gave us clear options, action steps, and guidance as we made many decisions along the way.

Madeline's is a cocktail bar and events space built within an old, decommissioned pencil factory.

We can provide full A/V setup, kitchen, and customized beverage programs. We also have several wedding tenured DJs on staff who could perfectly set the right vibe for your event.

We used Madeline's as a venue for the after party to our reception. Its a great spot with a beautiful private back room with its own bar and bathrooms. Brenton, the manager, was super helpful in showing off the space and figuring out the right option for our party. The staff was incredibly friendly and the drinks and food packages are exceedingly reasonable, especially for the area. Wanted to highlight that you can BYO DJ if wanted, as the have a separate audio setup in the back from the rest of the bar. Our guests had a blast and we were able to comfortably fit about 50 in the back room and there was room for a few more if needed. 10/10 would recommend Madeline's for any after parties, welcome parties or otherwise.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jess and her second shooter were absolutely clutch - they came EARLIER than expected, took a look at all the spacing, and planned out what exactly what we would do and where. Jess also managed my absolutely crazy family by figuring out who should be in what photo EVEN THOUGH she had never met them before. And she did amazingly beautiful getting ready photos. I don't know what to tell you except that I'm in awe of her artistic talent and what a complete steal she is. For someone who already had really high expectations to live up to from the engagement shoot, Jess hit every single expectation we had and more! We chose a crazy artistic venue with a courtyard, garage, townhome, and gallery - but Jess managed to find all the best lighting while also managing to keep us away from guests during our first-look photos. She has just such an eye for style it's CRAZY! And she captured all the small details perfectly. There's really no choice here - if you want someone who captures the real moments and gives you photos that let you remember what your wedding FELT LIKE - not what it looks like on a postcard, but the real gosh-darn emotion, then you need to book Jess. You 100% will be so happy you did - because the person behind the lens is also a gem. <3

Hi! I’m Liesl, founder of Liesl nyc. I started my career at an old time photo tourist trap in South Dakota and came to the big city to be a fashion photographer (with a few stops along the way.) Though I found a love for portraits and weddings and made that my focus, I’ve kept the editorial aesthetic. Though I’ve lived in Brooklyn for 15 years I’ve kept the South Dakota demeanor. A calm and comfortable presence helps a lot when you’re not used to being followed around by a photographer. Getting great pictures shouldn’t be intimidating. It’ll be way more fun than you think

I cannot brag about having Liesl as our wedding photographer enough. She immediately knew our vibe and delivered pictures that could easily be in a magazine. Also we got our sample photos TWO DAYS LATER?! On top of it all she is so calm, kind, and just such a lovely person to be around. I truly cannot recommend her enough.

Erica Reade Photography

Brooklyn, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

When I'm not shooting weddings, I’m a total beach bum. This might sound like an oxymoron coming from a native Montrealer, but I adore the ocean (and very much dislike winter). I swim and surf whenever possible, and I get out to the Rockaways as often as I can. I do a ton of beach photography, including a series about couples at the beach, and I’ve been published a few times, including here and here. If you see me at the beach, come say hi, and let’s have a frozen drink together.

As a wedding planner, I absolutely LOVE working with Erica. She's incredibly responsive, communicative, and professional leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day. My couples adore her and I know they are always going to be in great hands with her. She has a knack for making people comfortable in front of the camera, even if they have some jitters initially, and capturing all of their love and energy. Her photos are always amazing and she's a go-to recommendation for all of my couples.

Our names are Tess Mayer & Julia Wang and we are photography duo based in NYC.

Our style is a blend of candid documentary and stylized portraiture - we approach your day not as strangers following you around, but as excited guests (who happen to be carrying around cameras and massive lenses) who will most likely cry during your vows. We love small, intimate and relaxed weddings.

Tess was incredible to work with! She was communicative from the start, she captured all the moments that we asked and many more, and she worked well with our day-of coordinator. She was friendly and joyful, bringing a great spirit to the day! She gave us direction when we asked for it and captured organic moments. Every time we wanted a picture during the reception she was right there to take one. We definitely recommend Tess & Julia Weddings for your wedding photography!

Our originally planned wedding, for September of 2020, was going to be in my hometown. After the pandemic started we began a series of pivots, to try to figure out how to be able to still safely celebrate. We realized that we needed to postpone our full wedding to a year ahead and find a tiny but still special safe outdoor way to celebrate our love on our original date. We knew we needed to do this locally in Brooklyn, outdoors and with all of the safety precautions. We decided on the backyard garden of a wonderful restaurant called The Farm in our old neighborhood of Ditmas Park for our venue. I remembered that there was a flower shop in front of the bar where we had our first kiss that was up the block from our venue, I searched it online and found that an amazing new florist now had her flower creations there. The organic wildness of her flower compositions on her site were gorgeous. I reached out and from the moment we were in touch I knew that she was not only an amazing artist, but a wonderful human as well. Samantha was so warm and helpful and genuinely cared. She really connected with us and what we had envisioned, stylistically, our color palette, the general feel we wanted the garden to have, all of the things! She really took everything in and thoughtfully and artfully created the most magical flowers all around us- she was even able to figure out how to incorporate a spray of roses into the large ivy wall behind us in a gorgeous color gradient. She was extremely helpful and communicative through out with any question or thoughts I had, I felt really supported. I had sourced a flower crown that was more bare bones and a matching bout that she customized by adding beautiful dried blooms to both, I felt like I was in a living fairytale! The bouquet was stunning and beautifully arranged, just so special, and all of our flowers had that wild organic quality to them that I love so much. A sweet surprise was finding out that she had included the vessels she had arranged our flowers in into the budget so we were able to keep and use them and the flower frogs inside them, we love them and have been making small arrangements at home. And still have many of the dried botanicals that were incorporated in with all of the fresh blooms. Samantha is incredible. The whole process through, so kind, so very talented and with such a big heart. If you are in the area and looking for a florist, I could not possibly recommend her more highly.

I’ll try to keep this short: I’m a silly, introverted, rule breaker with a sincere whimsical streak. Originally from Iowa with a decent chunk of time spent bopping between Minneapolis and Oregon, I love weddings + photography (duh), my nephew, a stiff gin + tonic, propagating too many damn houseplants, and my cats. Last I checked I’m an INFP, Enneagram 4, and Capricorn which makes me quite the pragmatic daydreamer + observer: as unnecessarily prepared as a Boy Scout, curiously creative, and hella laid back, all of which uniquely prepares me for the ebb and flow of a wedding day.

Caitlin is a dream. From the time she arrived to the beginning moments of our wedding, Caitlin right away was comfortable with everyone. She brings an ease which allows people be calm and we honestly forgot she was there, snapping away. There were many moments where she would check in and make sure everyone was good, the energy was so sweet. We received our photos right when she said they would be done. The work Caitlin does captures the warmth, and light of a love event. My husband cried the first, second and third time we looked though the collection. We will treasure them forever. Highly, highly recommend her! 100%

I am so excited that you're considering me for your wedding! I freaking love everything about weddings, and I'm so stoked to be a wedding photographer. I know you have tons of options, but I think if you go with me, you're going to be super happy!

Evelyn did our engagement and wedding photos; we couldn't be happier with her work! She was prompt and communicative throughout the booking, asking important questions and being flexible with our plans and needs throughout the whole process. The platform to coordinate payment and view photos were so easy to use. When taking photos, Evelyn brought a sense of calm and fun that made it easy to be comfortable and guided. Neither of us had been photographed before, so we were nervous about posing or interacting with the camera. Evelyn was perfect in giving instruction, offering ideas about poses, and letting us say yes or no if it wasn't our style. She put us at ease while she chatted with us about her and asked questions about our life relationship - it's so easy to bond with her about living in New York City and loving our dogs! Most importantly, she captured the candid moments and closeups of the little details of our day and kept snapping shots that were a true reflection of the spirit of our relationship. When we received our photos, we were blown away at how EVERY photo in our gallery was one that we would print right away! Even our formal photos with family included some candids that made us laugh and smile! She took so many pictures and you can tell she put so much thought into choosing and editing photos to tell the story of our wedding day. Everyone at our wedding said she was polite, kind, and a welcome presence at our intimate ceremony. We could not agree more and would wholeheartedly recommend EHR Photography to anyone who wants a true professional and artist. Thank you Evelyn!!!

Maria and Ricky are hands down the BEST people and we could not have been luckier to have the pleasure of them capturing our wedding! They got exactly the vibes we wanted, all the shots we wanted, were so easy to communicate with, and are just the nicest and most fun people! We did our engagement shoot with them in NYC and the photos could not have been any better. We communicated the types of shots we were looking for and, since they were living there, they were able to give us the best tips for location and shots! Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined. We got the best posed shots and the absolute best candid shots. We barely even realized the were photographing/taking video of us during the reception which we loved, but we also just loved their presence. They were so much fun and added to the party, they were dancing while shooting and made everyone so happy and comfortable. Our guests still talk about them and how awesome they are! Our video is breathtaking, we are taken back to the day every time we watching and it always brings us to tears. The photos are incredible; we constantly look through our photos and love displaying them in our home to look at all the time. We have since referred several people to them because we would love everyone to have the same experience we had!

We got married at the Picnic House in April 2024 and had a great experience! It's a beautiful space that you can do a lot with. We really appreciated both having both the flexibility of choosing amongst a variety of vendors, as well as the assurance that given their experience with the venue that they'd be easy to work with day of (which was true- we had a very smooth wedding day!). We really appreciated working with Caity, who was very responsive over email and quick to pick up the phone. Our only struggle was in acquiring our parking passes (that was really the mail's fault) and in getting some answers early on regarding external alcohol policies. And I would say be very careful in selecting your caterer, since they'll make or break your experience. But overall I would absolutely recommend the Picnic House to anyone! The price really can't be beat for what you're getting.

Celestine is an Eastern Mediterranean restaurant and events venue located on the DUMBO waterfront in Brooklyn. Located just under the Manhattan Bridge, the restaurant offers unparalleled views of the downtown city skyline. Executive Chef Garett McMahan serves seasonal, soulful fare that draws inspiration from the Mediterranean coastline, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. This focus is mirrored in our wine list which highlights small coastal Mediterranean producers. Our bar program similarly marries the flavors of the spice route with classic cocktails. We are proud to be located within a LEED Gold Certified building and to be a part of the DUMBO community.

We are so happy we found Celestine and could host our wedding there! When we first came across this venue, we instantly knew that it ticked all of our boxes. The views of the Manhattan Bridge and the downtown Manhattan skyline are gorgeous, the Mediterranean-style food is fantastic, and the staff is professional and attentive. We visited several times before the wedding to sample the menu and treat friends and family to a great time, and we were consistently impressed with the quality and the service. Working with the Celestine events team, Nisrine, Kirsten, and Krystle, was a breeze. During the entire period leading up to the wedding, we were in constant contact and had several meetings, which made us able to relax throughout the process, knowing that everything was completely under control. We had our separate day-of coordinator who integrated seamlessly with the Celestine team, and Krystle, our Celestine coordinator, on the wedding day. Once the big day came around, we could not have been more prepared and at ease. Everything worked and turned out as beautiful and perfect as we had hoped! Many of our guests have said (and are still telling us!) that this was one of the best weddings they have ever been to, with many of their compliments directed towards the venue, food, and staff. Among all the other wedding venues in DUMBO, Celestine stands out as a true gem. It has everything we could have wished for in a very intimate, beautiful setting that will leave memories for a lifetime and have us coming back for more!

I’m guilty of romantizing my life, from my morning coffee in the kitchen to the walk to the fancy grocery store that’s out of the way. It's how I like to look at life. I take notice and enjoy the small mundane things. It's the same philosophy I apply to photography. It lets me capture and romantize all the moments that go unnoticed but worth remembering.

We reached out to Yvonne for our annual couples (and doggie) photography after seeing her work on Instagram. From the beginning, she was very communicative, transparent, and easy to work with. Now, we just got our gallery back and can’t wait to share them with our friends and family! The pictures look so natural yet refined, just like the rest of her portfolio. Reach out to Yvonne today as she is clearly the best person for the job!

Brooke and Sam were such a joy to work with. This was the first time we have hired a photographer for a special event and we are so glad we did. During our search, one thing that stood out to us was how couples in their photos looked so natural, happy, and were all smiles! They are super fun, easy going, and accommodating especially after having to reschedule. From the start, Brooke made us feel comfortable and was even willing to help us take our engagement photos with some alpacas! On our wedding day, Brooke and Sam kept us calm, on schedule, and really captured the fun all the guests were having, especially in the bounce house :) and on the dance floor! We really loved that they were up for anything and also seemed to enjoy themselves as well. All the photos were amazing and came right on schedule. We are so grateful to have found Brooke and Sam and hope to work with them again in the future. Thanks! -S+S

All of us here at Rosehip have been influenced by a lifelong love of nature and gardening, anything blooming and leaves of all types. We love what we do, and we love how flowers can bring so much joy and happiness to any space. Even something as simple as a small bud vase. We’ve been growing and working hard. Our lovely and amazingly hard working crew has been studying, building and even becoming arial scissor lift certified, so that we can hang greenery and flower installations from any ceiling and beam! True love of flowers and plants has led us to this life, and we can’t wait to share this passion with you! Come by, say hi!

The team at Rosehip created the most perfect ambiance for our wedding. Every time we talk to a guest about our wedding day, they still comment on the incredible flowers. We wanted a dark and edgy feel - all black candles, vases, signage, etc. with a simple gold accent. We don’t know much about flowers and only really knew what we didn’t like, so we let the experts do what they do best and I am so happy we did. The flowers Rosehip selected were absolutely STUNNING. They were the perfect pop of vibrant colors and beautiful blooms that set a gorgeous stage. I was truly obsessed with the bouquets and boutonnières. Everything was flawless and spot on with our vision of a moody scene with a dramatic color flare. Communication with Rosehip was extremely easy. Lauren was really patient with all of my questions and provided thorough, thoughtful responses. I could not recommend them more highly. They were easy to trust and surely delivered.

Kate was such a delight to work with! My husband was pretty nervous about posing but we ended up having so much fun on our engagement shoot (which she recommended we do as a way of getting comfortable - but we also really loved the photos). And when it snowed pretty hard on our wedding day she encouraged us to roll with it and the pictures are just absolutely magical. Our apartment is pretty small but we’re having a really hard time narrowing down prints to what we can fit on our walls! And there are so many gems among the guest candids - the first two I sent to people got immediate “this is my favorite picture of me/us ever” responses. Not gonna lie, we are pretty relieved to never have to plan a wedding again - but if we were, we’d hire Kate.

Kathi was very professional. She talked with use beforehand about what kind of pictures we wanted and also gave us some great ideas about picture ideas we didn't think of. Her knowledge and experience really came in handy as we had a time crunch for pictures. The pictures came out beautiful and it was easy to access them digitally as well as order the prints we wanted.

I found my passion for art while growing up surrounded by horses in a small town in Brazil. The shapes, textures, and colors of the horses always have been inspiring to me. I’ve always wanted to recreate them, but was never really able to. Honestly, my painting/drawing skills were and still are terrible, and that’s when photography came up in my life. I would create imaginary cameras out of my toys and would ‘photograph’ the horses and my neighbors. Photographing people became my passion and then evolved into my work in editorial and wedding photography.

We were looking for the perfect person to take photos of our family and when we came across photos by 98 New York Co. we knew we had to make a session. Gui made our visions come to life and not only made me and my fiancé comfortable, but our kids had so much fun as well! I cannot wait for our next session with Gui for our engagement photos as well as our wedding! Gui is the only photographer we will use for any future moments we want to capture.

I grew up in Texas and married a beautiful brown-eyed Jersey girl on a mountaintop in the Hudson Valley. I have the greatest job in the world. I’m lucky enough to witness tears of joy, celebrations of life and the continuation of family legacies on a weekly basis. I put everything I have into my photos, and I’m humbled and inspired by couples who trust me to tell their story.

Lev was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! His photography skills are beyond talented and his approach to setting up shots is very different than the traditional wedding photographer (with so many "planned" shots and people standing in a line). It was this unique approach that drew me to asking him to photograph for our big day...and luckily, he was available! Plus, at the end of the day, the photographs are one of the few tangible items that one will have to remember the big day. I cannot recommend Lev enough. Anyone would be lucky to have him as their photographer and have all of your married friends envious that they did not have him for their wedding!!

It took us a really long time to find a photographer that we both agreed on. My husband studied film in school and was looking for someone who was competent (good framing, straight horizon lines, no weird focus issues, etc.) and I was looking for someone whose work was both trendy and timeless. We found both of these traits in Diana. I always feel terribly awkward in photos, but Diana made the whole process as painless as possible and managed to get beautiful photos of the two of us that we will cherish forever. Diana thinks quickly on her feet and I've followed her social media for over a year at this point. All of her shoots feel very personal to the couple - it really feels that every couple gets a new creative eye. We had a slight delay to our ceremony, so Diana took advantage of the time and completed all of our portraits so that immediately after the ceremony we were able to enjoy cocktail hour with our friends & family. We selected a package with a second photographer after our initial consultation with Diana because specific photos we wanted required it, and the additional photographer she provided was excellent! I was also quite impressed with how quickly we received a sneak peek of our wedding photos and the full set of photos arrived shortly after. I have had friends that waited several months to receive their photos, but we had ours back within a few weeks! If you are looking for an assertive, quick-thinking photographer who will keep you calm on your wedding day and also ensure that you receive the shot list of your dreams, look no further. Diana is the best!

Wow wow wow! I wanted to take the time to leave the most thorough review of high praise because Debbie's team was absolutely fantastic to work with from beginning to end. We hired Debbie about a month out from our wedding for Day-of coordination as well as to review and revise all of the vendor contracts that we had done prior to hiring her. Debbie picked up sloppy and mismanaged work from a previous planner we parted ways with. It was no easy feat to pick up the previous planner's work and correct it and Debbie dived in head first. She asked thoughtful, detailed oriented questions the entire time to make sure that she executed my vision to the tee. Debbie and I had frequent calls leading up to our wedding detailing every aspect of the wedding and logistics. The logistics of being a NYC DIY-heavy bride without a car we were concerned as it was important to me that we didn't have family and friends setting up on wedding day. Debbie came by and took inventory of all of our DIY materials, picked them up prior to the wedding, set them up wedding day, and then dropped them off back at our house on wedding night. The venue we rented had to be left cleared and clean and Debbie's team did a fantastic job with that and left the place spotless. Debbie also sent me photos of the space for reference. Now for Debbie's team on our wedding day. My family and guests LOVED Debbie's team. They were kind, eager, and did anything my family requested of them. I found out after the fact that one of Debbie's team members helped my stepmom-in-law with her makeup before the ceremony, which was definitely outside of their roles and responsibilities, but they did it with such a smile and grace. I heard multiple stories just like that one of Debbie's team jumping to help wedding guests or even vendors as they needed it during the night. If you are looking for someone detail-oriented who will keep a tight timeline and help you bring your dream wedding to life, I would 100% recommend hiring Debbie. She was worth every penny to my husband and me. And our wedding would have not gone as smoothly as it did without her ability to manage so many different aspects and quickly think on her feet. Debbie did such an amazing job we are really hoping our day gets picked up by a bridal magazine. Thank you Debbie and Team! - The Flemings

Five Boroughs Brewing Co.

Brooklyn, NY
  • Venue
  • Up to 145 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor

Just a quick walk away from the 45th street R train, our taproom is a fantastic venue for weddings, after parties and engagement parties. Our bar offers locally made craft beer, wine, and NA beverages. As we have a New York State Liquor license, we are happy to accommodate cocktails by request and work out a beverage plan that works best for our patrons. Our taproom features 2,500 square feet of usable event space, perfect for a wedding reception, rehearsal dinner, welcome cocktail hour, bridal shower, engagement party or bachelor/bachelorette party. Our event team is happy to work with any prospects to help plan an unforgettable party experience. We currently do not provide food service on site, but would happily aid any patron with finding high quality catering in the area.

We were incredibly lucky to have our wedding at Five Boroughs. We loved the flexibility to make the event exactly what we wanted in terms of decor and food as well as the actual logistics of the wedding itself. We chose to get married and have cocktails on the production floor, then party in the taproom, with two food trucks at the curb. It was a great size for a 68-person event, although I can see it working for a slightly larger crowd, too. Five Boroughs worked with our wedding planner to iron out the kinks and help get the timing right, which was especially crucial as we were the first wedding they ever hosted. From an accessibility standpoint, it also worked out well since parking wasn't a challenge and the train is right there (and Melody Lanes is right there for afterparty considerations...). The space is incredibly photogenic as well. Just a lovely night to remember; highly recommended.

A bit about me: My name is Zuleika, I am a native New Yorker, cat mom, and lover of all things *magic*. In my experience of doing hair and makeup for over 15 years, I pride myself in my work and love connecting with new people. I work with all hair textures, lengths, and densities. I especially love styling curly hair and creating beautiful hair pieces with flowers & accessories. I work out of my studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and am available for destination weddings!

Zuleika is INCREDIBLY talented. I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about hair/makeup, so I had a very clear vision and my standards were high. She listened carefully to what I wanted and executed flawlessly. I feel so fortunate to have found her for my wedding day - cannot recommend enough!

Bad Brides Club 

5.0

Brooklyn, NY
  • Beauty professional

Bad Brides Club is a wedding, beauty and creative direction agency created by Elena Miglino and Korey Fitzpatrick. They created this agency after years of being in the industry and seeing the same wedding on repeat. Although every wedding needs tradition, every bride deserves originality, it is your day after all. That's where BBC steps in… we’re here to break the bridal rules and bring a modern day twist to a traditionally beautiful day.

Bad Brides Club is our preferred hair and makeup team for Jenny Yoo's photo shoots. Elena, Korey, and any of their associates have been amazing on set and their work truly delivers every time. They are both easy to work with, helpful, accommodating, and very professional. We trust their vision every time and they need very little direction to provide outstanding results. Our models consistently look polished, fresh, and highlighting their natural face or hair. I would highly recommend to any future bride or for other events if you are looking for artists that are consistent, experienced, and over deliver.

Lesley is a Filipino-American floral designer based in Brooklyn. Her love of floral design is rooted in the vibrant energy of nature's colors and organic shapes. She is particularly drawn to tropical flowers for their boldness and textural variety.

Lesley does such beautiful work and I was so pleased with her gorgeous arrangements! My fiancé hired Lesley to create 5 custom arrangements and install them in our home as a surprise after he proposed. Not only was Lesley consultative when it came to creating arrangements that blended her style and my aesthetics, she did an amazing job installing everything in our home. I’d recommend Talulot for any of your wedding needs or arrangement needs in general! Lesley has such an artful eye, keen sense for collaboration, and her arrangements bring life to any space they’re in.

Bridgepoint

Brooklyn, NY
  • Venue
  • Up to 60 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

The Bridgepoint event space is a 2,500 sq. ft. renovated roofdeck in DUMBO Brooklyn that has breathtaking views of the Manhattan Skyline and both the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges. This contemporary build is a stark contrast from some of our rustic offerings which features, white marble tile with grey, black and gold tones throughout.

After our Upper East Side ceremony, our wedding guests took the ferry to Dumbo and enjoyed the cocktail hour at Bridgepoint Rooftop. And while they loved the Dumbo Loft for our reception, I think the rooftop view was the hit of the day. This space is all marble inside and truly beautiful. Between that and the city views, we did basically zero decor for this space. There are some nice bistro lights already set up on the rooftop patio. There was plenty of space for our caterers to set up several food tables and our bartenders to set up a bar table. We brought in some hightop tables for both the indoor and outdoor spaces. There was potential for rain so we did have to book a tent at the last minute (unexpected, awful expense), but we ended up not needing it! Just be aware there is no awning or anything in the event of rain and we knew we'd have too many people for just the indoor space. The BK Venues folks were absolutely fantastic and communicative. They gave us a deal for booking both the Rooftop and Dumbo Loft! Bridgepoint Rooftop was amazing, and really added such a fun and special variety to the events of the day. Thanks BK Venues!!!

Nithya Sharma Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800

I've been in love with the art of photography for as long as I can remember, and I'm truly blessed to be able to pursue my passion every day. Growing up all over the world (Sweden, India, and Denmark to name a few!), my love of photography grew from my desire to capture the places and people I wanted to remember the most. What I love most is the incredible honor of being part of your special day and capturing the deep emotions behind the photograph.

We were so fortunate to come in touch with Nithya through Zola! When I found out in early September that things fell through with a local photographer for my October wedding, I emailed 10 photographers on Zola, desperate to find out about their availability. I had a reply from Nithya the next morning, and after a wonderful chat, she became my new photographer! I loved her enthusiasm and how she talked about her work and the types of photos she wanted to capture that day. Many guests have mentioned how she was always in the background the entire evening, totally focused on her work. We found a gem in Nithya and we can't wait to look at her photos!

Herti Photography

Hi! My name is Herti. I’m originally from Albania where I first started doing photography and then moved to NY, that was about 5 years ago. It’s an incredible feeling being the one person your couple trusts with capturing moments of their life. That’s why I put a lot of thought in every wedding I shoot. I sit down with the couple before the wedding, talk to them and get to know them. So when the day of the wedding comes they know they have nothing to worry about regarding photography. I’m a strong believer on telling a story through photography and give everyone who looks at your pictures a glimpse of your love.

Thank you a lot Herti for capturing our elopement so beautifully and also agreeing to keep it a secret and not post anything until we told everyone else.
