"Our reception venue was at The Green Building in Gowanus. We loved it so much, we never checked out any other venues. There was SO much dancing and ZERO formalities. Our menu choice was Dominican Food and British food, like tostones, rice & beans, pastelitos, shepherd's pie, pasties, fish & chips. There were no assigned seating, we didn't do the weird bouquet throwing thing and we danced all night. Around 11:30 I took off my Manolos and put on sneakers." -- Read all about Denise & Charlie's wedding
