Olmsted Restaurant Wedding - Brooklyn, NYC - Sonya & Sage

Sonya & Sage had an intimate wedding at their favorite restaurant Olmsted, right around the corner from their Brooklyn apartment!

Sonya got ready in their apartment with a couple friends, and Sage got ready literally one door down at their neighborโ€™s apartment who were also attending the wedding. We then had their first look on the steps of their brownstone, and took some portraits on their tree-lined street.

The chosen vibe for their wedding: โ€œWe want it to feel like a low-key botanical garden disco. Is a low-key disco a thing? We're making it one.โ€ I think they succeeded. The casual backyard space where they got married is literally a garden- the restaurant actually grows some of their produce right on-site! It made for an intimate sweet ceremony space, and when we moved inside for dinner, they used it as a cozy lounge area complete with string lights and sโ€™mores.
