Wedding Reception at The Better Man Distilling Company in Patchogue, NY

Non Traditional Wedding Reception at The Better Man Distilling Company in Patchogue, New York

As a Long Island wedding photographer, I get to work at so many incredible venues. It is such a fun experience to work at unique and non traditional venues like bars, restaurants, etc. My clients, Ryan & Jazmin are THE coolest couple and chose a nontraditional wedding reception venue in Patchogue, NY - The Better Man Distilling Company! It was such an epic night. I loved the endless cocktail hour style of this party. And the best part is they still had some dancing, speeches, etc - you definitely don’t have to skip all of the fun wedding traditions!

In 2023, I had the honor of capturing Ryan & Jazmin’s elopement at Bayard Cutting Arboretum- which was equally as incredible!

I was so excited to work with them again on capturing their wedding reception at The Better Man Distilling Company in 2024.
