Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 the most amazing venue. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this space and their team! 42West Entertainment Group was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the first point of contact, their communication was friendly, quick and efficient. The quality of their work and value they provided was amazing - and having their decor and design expertise was budget-friendly! The team is very knowledgable and decorated the space beautifully. Everything was absolutely perfect. Having Lauren and Halley there on our wedding day was so reassuring - they were incredibly helpful and, given minimal direction from us, made our wedding day beautiful and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to bring our vision to life. 42West is truly a dream team venue!
