wedding date: May 2, 2014
Hildegunn and Dejan's celebration was a Brooklyn wedding at its best. It couldn't get more Brooklyn-classy than this swanky, diverse, smartly-dressed crowd filled with artistic, musical, and talented people, all convening at a New York City/Brooklyn landmark - The River Cafe. The setting was absolutely beautiful and befitting for a May wedding, with some of the best fine dining in town, along with a stunning backdrop of the Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge. It was perfect for Hildegunn and Dejan, a wonderful and charming couple whom I had the pleasure to meet and work with. Hildegunn is a vocalist originally from Norway, and Dejan is a chemist originally from Serbia! I absolutely love working with couples who come from different places! And because of Hildegunn's musical background, many of her friends were on the scene to contribute to the festivities: the coolest live band I've ever seen at a wedding kept the crowd on their feet; the best man entertained the guests with an acoustic guitar; a friend of the bride crooned, "And I Love Her" for the couple's first dance... It melted the guests. It melted me too. :) What an amazing time! Here are some photos to share from the gorgeous wedding...
