Nicole & Joe’s Wedding at Shell’s Loft, Brooklyn
Nicole and Joe’s wedding was the perfect balance of tradition, intimacy, and celebration. Their weekend began with a ketubah signing at Emanuel El in New York City, surrounded by their closest friends and family. Afterward, they hosted a relaxed brunch, setting the tone for the heartfelt moments to come.
Getting Ready at the Ace Hotel Brooklyn
On their wedding day, Nicole and Joe chose the stylish Ace Hotel in Brooklyn for getting ready. The hotel’s mix of modern design and artistic character provided the perfect backdrop for candid photographs as they prepared for the day ahead.
Cocktail Hour, Portraits, and Ceremony at Shell’s Loft
Once everyone was ready, we traveled to Shell’s Loft in Brooklyn, where the rest of the celebration unfolded. The loft’s open, eclectic space was the perfect canvas for their vision:
Cocktail Hour: Guests mingled and toasted the couple in the loft’s warm, inviting atmosphere.
Formal Portraits: We used the loft’s textured walls, vintage furniture, and soft natural light for portraits that felt timeless yet creative.
Ceremony: Friends and family gathered in the loft for a heartfelt exchange of vows, with the intimate setting enhancing the emotion of the moment.
Dinner: A cozy dinner followed, where laughter, connection, and the clinking of glasses filled the room.
The After Party at Nowadays
As the night continued, Nicole and Joe led their guests to Nowadays, a Brooklyn favorite for late-night celebrations. The shift in energy from the intimate loft dinner to a vibrant after-party kept the celebration going well into the night.
