Our Wedding

Dane and Sarah met in 2018 in South Slope, Brooklyn! Their first date was at Brooklyn Botanic Gardens for cocktails and a jazz show. They watched the sun set and the stars and bats come out and didn't want the night to end -- drinks and key lime pies were found in a pastry shop nearby. Their love of the arts, food, and cocktails and each other has not diminished!

Lunch sandwiches come out at 11AM. If you are coming for something specific, it’s best to come close to those times to avoid disappointment. Most pastries are sold out by noon or earlier.
