Of all the stylish hotels in Brooklyn for a wedding, The Wythe Hotel may just be my favorite. Ashley and Miles planned their intimate Wythe Hotel Wedding for just twenty-five guests in the fall of 2020.
The day began in one of the hotel’s trendy suites, adorned with funky wallpaper and epic skyline views. Ashley, her mom, friends, and adorable golden doodle puppy got ready in the gorgeous room. I love photographing in this space, which has massive industrial style windows, letting in endless natural sunlight. I always advise the couples I work with to choose a getting ready location with style, and the Wythe Hotel Wedding suites are one of the best.
Ashley and Miles had their first look right on Wythe Avenue in the heart of Williamsburg. This trendy neighborhood offers endless photo opportunities against the graffiti walls and water towers that define Brooklyn. They also included their sweet puppy in their portrait session!
We then headed up to Lemon’s Rooftop Bar at the Wythe Hotel for their ceremony. As with all 2020 weddings, the couple could only include their closest family and local friends, which created an environment of intimacy so unique to these small weddings. After saying their vows, they celebrated into the evening with toasts and a candle-lit dinner.
It goes without saying that 2020 wasn’t what any of us expected, but for me, this return to small weddings with just the most important family and friends was the silver lining.
