The Sanctuary on Roosevelt Island provided the dreamiest backdrop for our wedding last month! Their entire team went above and beyond for us on our big day. Our friends and family raved about the location, the ambiance, the food, the service. About an hour before our ceremony started, it began to pour outside- and we were meant to have an outdoor ceremony! My husband and I sat in our vintage taxi parked out front of the venue, and watched The Sanctuary staff run around in the torrential downpour to save our ceremony and move everything indoors- and the fact that the rain only put us about 15 minutes behind the original schedule?! I’m still not sure how they managed it. Would also like to send a special shout out to Amelia, who more recently joined the Sanctuary team as event coordinator- she was not part of the team when we first signed out contract, but she proved to be an invaluable resource to us on the day of the wedding. She is a fabulous addition! Alfonso gave us our first tour of the venue that made us fall in love with the space. Frank was so patient and kind and answered all of our questions- and even helped us accommodate a last minute addition guest who was originally too ill to attend our wedding but who luckily recovered well enough to be able to come. Thank you again to the Sanctuary team from the bottom of our hearts for helping make our wedding the most magical and special day of our life!

I had two great experiences with The Pier Sixty Collection. Both my wedding at Current and my work’s holiday party at Pier Sixty. The events were both unforgettable, and the staff was truly outstanding. I had the pleasure of working with Marlon, who was our wedding coordinator and worked our holiday party and I can’t speak highly enough of him. He goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. Marlon does an incredible job of making sure guests are happy and the event flows seamlessly—he’s truly one of the best. Secondarily, the food is amazing. Friends and family still talk about the food that was served at our wedding months later! All in all, this is an amazing collection of venues with great staff and I hope to happily attend/host many more events here.

We knew we wanted to host our wedding in Jersey City so our guests could enjoy the skyline and the water views. After viewing multiple venues, we landed on Maritime Parc for 7/20/24 and it was the best decision we made. Our wedding planning ran smoothly because we worked with Maritime’s team. Working with Priscila, the sales manager, was like working with family. She was available whenever I needed her which made getting answers to questions quick and easy. She went above and beyond her role. This venue offers a classy food tasting and cake tasting at their restaurant. Even though they host weddings every weekend, they made us feel that ours was very special and important. We appreciated working with Alexis on our timelines and floor-plan. She was very organized and thought of all the little things that we never would have!! Our day of Captains and Bridal Attendant, Marc, Rita and Patricia were the best!! Always there when we needed them and so so kind. My family members raved about their helpfulness. The entire staff at Maritime (servers, bartenders, valet, etc) were professional and attentive. It is rare to have such good and consistent service at a wedding. Lastly… the FOOD. What other wedding venue serves Scallops over braised short ribs?? None! Choose Maritime for a stress free wedding year!

Most wedding locations here are just 30 minutes from Midtown Manhattan so your guests won't have trouble finding you on the big day.

What Makes Astoria Wedding Venues Special?

The neighborhood's rich cultural heritage shines through in Astoria's wedding venues, with spaces like Victory Garden Café featuring traditional Greek architectural elements that transport you and your guests to the Mediterranean. Renaissance Event Hall impresses with its Neoclassical design that makes for stunning photos. Film buffs will appreciate the Museum of the Moving Image where your guests can actually engage with film history exhibits during cocktail hour instead of just standing around making small talk. Astoria's industrial past has been beautifully transformed into modern celebration spaces you'll love. VESPER offers breathtaking views of both the Triborough Bridge and Manhattan skyline, and you can time your ceremony for sunset when the cityscape lights up dramatically. The contemporary lighting systems in many venues let you customize the ambiance completely to match your vision, while Astoria World Manor's ballrooms feature elegant crystal chandeliers that add instant glamour to any celebration.
