As Stevie & Jake\u2019s wedding day approached, the forecast was calling for rain. \u00a0I knew no matter what happened we\u2019d be able to get some truly lovely pictures because their venue, The Palm House at Brooklyn Botanic Garden, is blessed with amazing indoor areas featuring beautiful greenery and natural light, so I wasn\u2019t too worried! \u00a0Mainly I was hoping that the weather would hold out until after the initial first look and portraits during the mid-afternoon, as we\u2019d have the opportunity to shoot outside the 1 Hotel Brooklyn by Brooklyn Bridge Park with the views of the skyline.\u00a0 Stevie put on her gown in a suite upstairs and WOW I knew Jake was gonna flip out when he saw her. We got lucky and were able to do Stevie and Jake\u2019s first look was out by the water with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background, and we got all their wedding party and family groups done outdoors and even hop on over to the Cherry Blossoms for some final portraits of the couple alone before heading inside. \u00a0The Ketubah signing and ceremony was quite lovely under the domed glass roof of The Palm House, and guests enjoyed a cocktail hour with private after-hours access to the three exquisite \u201cClimate Rooms,\u201d and got to stroll through the Bonsai room on their way back to the reception space. \u00a0Highlights of the evening included the entertaining toasts by Stevie\u2019s father and sisters and Jake\u2019s brothers, an enthusiastic Hora and Mazinka, and a lively dance floor courtesy of Hank Lane\u2019s Bobby Attiko Band, and of course Stevie\u2019s incredibly stylish white sequined party dress she changed into at the end of the night! \u00a0The whole affair was expertly coordinated by Jackie of Busy Bride Planning and I couldn\u2019t have been more tickled to be there to capture all the memories. \u00a0Congratulations to Stevie & Jake!
