Foundry LIC Wedding : Jamie & Erik : Long Island City, NY
A Fall wedding at The Foundry, Long Island City in Queens, NY.
If I were to have a re-do of my own wedding, chances are it would be at The Foundry. I'll never forget the first time I shot a wedding here. I had never heard of it! This must have been 2010 or so. I show up in what at that time was the middle of absolute no where to discover something that became a phenomenon in the NYC wedding world. It was the first "cool" wedding venue. Ten years later, I still think it's one of the best.Jamie & Eric obviously poured their hearts and souls into their wedding. It took on my favorite vibe of wedding/dinner party featuring dim sum, bbq, a band playing to the beat of a bass drum with custom decor by the bride, and a ceremony officiated by a dear friend. The Foundry has so many nooks, crannies and balconies which make it literally fun to shoot in.

The Foundry Wedding : Brenna & Mark : Long Island City, NY
Brenna & Mark were married May 26, 2018 with a ceremony at St Mary's Roman Catholic Church and wedding reception at The Foundry, both in Long Island City, Queens. The Foundry is one of those venues that you just can't wait to visit. Couples, vendors, and guests love it alike. On my first visit here some 8 years ago, I was like where in the world are we going? Tucked underneath the Queensboro bridge, this corner of Long Island City has changed a lot in that time, but it still feels like you're going to a secret destination, despite how popular The Foundry has become. I love how flexible the space is and the different characters of the various rooms and outdoor areas come together to make an amazing experience. Just down the street from The Foundry is the Z Hotel where the bridal party got ready before heading to the church. We stopped at Gantry Plaza Park for some portraits and then utilized the rooftop at The Foundry for some more shots of the bride and groom. Guests had filled the back patio by then and the party was underway. One big mention goes out to DJ Duane from 74 Events - I found myself shazaming tunes constantly! I'd like to especially thank the Dugan family for trusting me with documenting yet another family wedding! It's a great compliment to be referred from one couple to another- and especially so between sisters.
