We had been watching the weather all week, and we were super lucky that after a week straight of rain forecasts, the day of the ceremony was really beautiful.

I went over to their place in DUMBO while they were getting ready.

After the preparations, we walked over to the waterfront park in DUMBO for the ceremony

Colleen’s sister, Kerry officiated the ceremony.

Afterwards, we cruised around DUMBO a bit and snapped some pictures with Jason and Colleen.

When I asked if there was any outdoor cafe nearby that would be a good spot to drop by, the suggested Pedro’s right away. I love the spot and the color outside.

The next day, they had the reception at Smack Mellon. I showed up early to set up the projector, and also to get some pictures of the place. These amazing floral arrangements were done by Phoebe at Opalia Flowers

Colleen and Jason had donuts on their first date, so at the reception, instead of a cake, they served donuts.

They had some beautiful invitations, and had a big poster of it at the entrance for guests to sign.

Colleen and Jason handed out tickets as their guests came in, for a surprise later on in the evening.

In addition to the bar, they had a keg of beer from Brooklyn Brewery.

Sharing the slideshow with the guests

Nice view from Smack Mellon onto the Manhattan Bridge.

The surprise for the guests: An ice cream truck!

Vivian hid out in the church basement while the guests were arriving.

I loved shooting at Smack Mellon.. It’s hard to go wrong with the Manhattan bridge right outside your window.

They had some great details, including hand written menus on each table, as well as oolong tea as a favor.
