Alyse and Joey tied the knot at the stunning and brand-new Brooklyn wedding venue, 74Wythe. These two were literally the second wedding ever hosted at this stunning event space. We were so impressed with the gorgeous ceremony and reception space… and the ability to have an outdoor wedding, even in the pouring rain. Don’t worry, we’ll get to that part of the story!

Starting Their 74Wythe Wedding Day Across the Street

This beautiful couple started the day across the street at the William Vale hotel. 74Wythe is conveniently located in the heart of Williamsburg, right by some of the best hotels in NYC to get ready on your wedding day. Adjacent to the William Vale, you also have the option of getting ready at the Hoxton Hotel, the Williamsburg Hotel, the Wythe Hotel, and the McCarren Hotel. You can get ready within walking distance of this stunning Brooklyn wedding venue.

Incredible Vendors Pulling Together This 74Wythe Wedding

The team of vendors was absolutely phenomenal for this 74Wythe wedding. Olivia Howard Designs put together a beautiful floral design for the ceremony and for their personal florals. We were so impressed by the color scheme and overall look and feel of the ceremony. Ani Wolff was the coordinator for the day, keeping things totally in line and well taken care of for the couple.

Brooklyn Wedding Photographers Capturing a Stunning NYC Venue

We were so honored when Alyse and Joey chose us to capture their 74Wythe wedding. Given that it was the second wedding ever at this venue, we were so excited and curious to capture the space with these two! During their engagement shoot, we even took a venue walkthrough together to get the lay of the land.

Doing a walkthrough with our couple was super helpful to understand how the flow of the day would work. At wedding venues in NYC, sometimes the multi-floor layouts can be confusing on a wedding day. That’s why we were so grateful to have the opportunity to tour ahead of time with Alyse and Joey.

First Look Beside 74Wythe Before the Wedding

On this rainy wedding day, Alyse and Joey made the most of it. They had their first look directly across the street from the William Vale hotel, where there was a perfectly covered area. With exposed brick walls as their backdrop, these two saw each other for the first time. Dancing, laughing, hugging, and kissing, these two couldn’t get enough of each other!

We packed Alyse and Joey’s large bridal party into the lounge at JBird for some super fun photos. We love the look and feel of this room, making it the perfect photo spot.

Rainy Weddings Are Amazing for Wedding Photography in NYC

Alyse and Joey’s ceremony took place on the main rooftop, taking in the natural, even light that an overcast day in Brooklyn provides. We love capturing weddings on rainy days – although you may hope for sunshine on the big day, having an overcast day makes for stunning even lighting. The rainy day softens shadows, giving you an ultra-flattering lighting situation.

Wedding Ceremony on Rooftop at 74Wythe

As these two began the ceremony, the sky opened up for a downpour. They were fully protected under the glass rooftop, making for a perfect outdoor ceremony. We loved that the layout of the rooftop ceremony space at 74Wythe featured the stunning view of the Manhattan skyline. Hey, if you’ve got it, why not flaunt it?!

Gorgeous Rooftop Ceremony in Brooklyn

As the rain continued through the ceremony, it didn’t put a damper on Alyse and Joey’s beautiful Brooklyn wedding. There may have even been a tear or two shed during vows that were blamed on the rain… a perfect excuse! We gave Alyse and Joey the advice that when they go for their first kiss, dip back just a little bit – it makes for an even more iconic ‘first kiss’ photo. They definitely followed through with a magnificent kiss! After they tied the knot, it was time to get the party started.

Converting the Rooftop Space into a Reception Venue

The rooftop was quickly converted into a dinner space while guests enjoyed cocktail hour on the lower and upper portions of the rooftop. The crow’s nest made for a beautiful view as the sun set, and the lower roof space had an additional bar for guests to enjoy. Alyse and Joey took some time during cocktail hour to connect via Zoom with guests who weren’t able to make it on the big day. Although they were surrounded by so many loved ones, some could not make it into the city for this beautiful occasion.

Getting the Party Started at 74Wythe Wedding

Beneath the retractable glass rooftop, the party began. After the guests were served their meals, it was time to party party party! The dance floor lit up with laughter and joy while Alyse and Joey boogied down. This indoor/outdoor space was perfect for the dance floor, giving them a cool evening breeze while the party got started. We loved seeing the sparkly skyline behind these two as they had their ‘main character’ moments on the dance floor. Overall, an unforgettable occasion.
