This romantic spring wedding is what Brooklyn weddings are made of! Our adorable clients booked our photography and video package with wedding trailer to capture their wedding celebration at Akwaaba Mansion. Our team loved the “country feel” the inn offered in the heart of Brooklyn. The couple got ready in separate suites then reunited for their first look in Grand Army Plaza (a favorite among Brooklynites for engagement shoots as well) before exchanging vows in an outdoor ceremony in the garden of the venue. Our videographer did a great job of capturing all the special moments in their wedding trailer. Be sure to check it out!

Brooklyn, NY is home to some pretty amazing wedding venues. Couples seeking a less traditional space often flock to this borough to celebrate their big day. Our recent clients, Clarissa and Barry chose the historic Akwaaba Mansion in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of the borough to exchange vows. Our photography team has since shot at the bed and breakfast twice and were impressed with the restored villa both times. Check it out!
