For Amanda + Sean, who tied the knot at 26 Bridge in Brooklyn, New York, a relaxed celebration with their nearest + dearest, embracing the beauty of their city surroundings, was exactly what they had in mind. They went with a classic palette of mostly black + white, but added a sense of romance to the industrial space through subtle, softer elements like a lace ceremony backdrop + dreamy garden-inspired blooms. We think their wedding is the perfect inspiration for other couples tying the knot in warehouse, factory or urban place - and Amanda tells us more about their vision below...

Thanks so much to Phil Chester for the stunning images and congratulations to A + S on a beautiful day!

Love, love love Amanda's gorgeous dress from Lovely Bride!

The bridesmaids each chose their own long black dress (which they're guaranteed to wear again + again!).

Amazing, amazing portraits by Phil Chester!

Amanda says, Use your resources, and enter contests! We were able so save a lot of money by doing things off season and letting helpful friends lend a hand. We were also so lucky to win a videography package from NST Pictures. It was really just the icing on the cake!
