Emily and William’s Brooklyn wedding at Celestine was a beautiful reminder that even a rainy day can’t dampen the magic of love. With clear umbrellas, heartfelt vows, and their sweet pup by their side, these two made the most of every moment. Their intimate celebration along the DUMBO waterfront felt cozy, stylish, and incredibly personal.
Getting Ready at the Ace Hotel in Brooklyn – Brooklyn Wedding at Celestine
The day began at the Ace Hotel Brooklyn, located at 252 Schermerhorn Street. For the Brooklyn wedding at Celestine event, Emily got ready in one of the stylish rooms, surrounded by laughter, music, and the warm energy of close friends. The soft light from the large windows created the perfect setting for bridal portraits and quiet moments before the day unfolded.
Her elegant gown from @amsale, paired with classic jewelry from @tiffanyandco, reflected her effortless, modern style.
First Look at Celestine, with Their Pup in Tow
Emily and William shared their first look just outside Celestine, the scenic waterfront venue where they would later say “I do.” Despite the light rain, the couple embraced the weather with two clear umbrellas and a lot of laughter. Their adorable dog joined the moment, making their Brooklyn wedding at Celestine even more special with a playful and sentimental touch to the day.
We captured portraits around the venue, using the rainy streets and waterfront views as our canvas. Raindrops on cobblestone, overcast skies, and reflections in puddles created stunning, romantic imagery that felt straight out of a film.
Ceremony and Reception at Celestine
Located at 1 John Street in Brooklyn, Celestine is one of DUMBO’s most charming venues, offering sweeping views of the Manhattan Bridge and East River. The venue was perfect for the Brooklyn wedding. The indoor space, with its warm wood tones and modern design, was the perfect shelter from the rain.
The ceremony felt intimate and heartfelt, surrounded by friends, family, and candlelight. Gorgeous floral arrangements by @poppyflowersco filled the space with soft colors and springtime energy. Every detail—from the music by @jamesmulry to the cozy reception dinner—reflected Emily and William’s style: relaxed, elegant, and full of love.
A Celebration Full of Joy, Laughter, and Dance
As the evening unfolded, the party kicked into high gear. With @thepamelabob providing flawless hair and makeup touch-ups and @jamesmulry spinning great tunes, guests hit the dance floor in celebration.
The intimate space made it feel like one big family dinner party—exactly what the couple had envisioned.
