Dyker Beach Golf Course Wedding – Rachel & Gidon

Rachel and Gidon’s wedding at Dyker Beach Golf Course couldn’t have turned out more perfectly than it did! Guests were treated to views of Long Island and one of the best catering services in Brooklyn. From the enchanting golf course views to the specially designed ceremony site, every detail was handpicked to meet the couple’s idea of a perfect wedding! The landmark brick facade was the perfect backdrop for the couple’s post-nuptial shoot. It brought that old world feel that makes a fairy-tale wedding come true. And yet, the wedding reception was the complete opposite of that – it had all of the modern touches you would expect from a contemporary wedding. Each table had a glint of gold and pink. Even the couple’s wine glasses had custom embellishments on them. This showcases how versatile Dyker Beach Golf Course can be. It can easily cater to traditional and modern wedding styles! Below are a few other details that we loved about Rachel and Gidon’s Dyker Beach Golf Course wedding:
  • Rachel looked exquisite in her wedding dress! She wore a vintage-style dress for her Big Day, which had lace details on the neckline and sleeves. Her look was complemented beautifully by her long and wavy hair, which she decided to wear down (a non-traditional, yet excellent choice for her wedding look).
  • Gidon was the picture of a man who was excited to tie the knot with his soul mate. He looked dapper in his black suit and bow tie. He simply couldn’t contain his smile during the ceremony and the reception. In fact, we didn’t see him without a smile once throughout the day!
  • Dyker Beach Golf Course was the perfect wedding venue for this special union. The slightly gloomy weather also created a stunning backdrop for the photos. There was a moody ambiance that added another layer of charm to this love story.
From the old world ceremony site to the gorgeous ballroom for the reception, every element of the wedding worked out perfectly. But beyond the venue, the food, and the decor, the lovely spirit of the couple was what made this wedding extraordinary. We wish them nothing but the best as they start a new chapter of their lives together!
