Playful Brooklyn Wedding at River Cafe

Brooklyn weddings at River Cafe are a perfect balance of city feels with garden vibes. River Cafe is ideal for more intimate weddings, and the food is absolutely out of this world (seriously, so many delicious courses!) Ariel & Jacob got ready at One Hotel in Brooklyn before doing a first look outside the hotel and making their way to River Cafe. We stopped for some photo pit stops along the way to the venue. These two wear their hearts right on their sleeves and were so emotional when seeing each other for the first time. It’s touching to witness their love. Their emotional sides are balanced by their fun loving nature. Their wedding was on May 4th aka Star Wars Day (and the bride’s birthday!) Their dance party leaned into that theme-hence the epic dance floor light saber battle! Take a look at home of the highlights from their day below. Photos were shot on a mix of medium format film, 35mm film, and digital.
