“I've been shooting weddings at Mountainville Manor house since Lauren Abramo and team first started bringing their magic touch to renovate the venue. Since then I have shot number weddings there. Each one has gone off without a hitch, with the back end working smoothy to produce a flawless event for the guests. One of the bet things as a vendor is how they look out for us. I never have to beg for a glass of water. We are always fed on time with the food is hot! (That never happens.) If the treat the vendors as well as they do, you can only imagine how they cater to the bride and groom. I recommend it for everyone looking for a charming venue in the Hudson Highlands at the gateway to the Catskills”

“We had our wedding at Skyview Golf Club, and I truly can’t say enough great things about the entire experience — from the very beginning of the planning process all the way through to the big day. Our coordinator, Jenn, was absolutely amazing. She and her team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Jenn was organized, responsive, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Her calm and confident presence made planning so much less stressful, and on the day of, she was a total rockstar — making sure every detail was perfect so we could just relax and enjoy the moment. The staff overall was incredible — attentive, friendly, and genuinely helpful. They made us and our guests feel so well taken care of. Speaking of our guests, they are still raving about the food and the views! The cocktail hour spread was unreal, and the dinner was equally impressive.

“My husband and I chose the Envue Hotel to be our all-in-one wedding venue and hotel room block. We actually signed our contract two years ago when a different management team was in place. After signing the contract, a new management team came in, and we could not have been more amazed with the level of service. It truly was a blessing in disguise. Chris and his team are truly one of a kind. From day one, Chris jumped in and truly became a partner in our wedding planning process. He was not only great at communicating, but also open to collaborating to make it the day of our dreams. I feel like so many venues we visited put numerous restrictions in place, but Chris listened to all of our ideas and was open to executing on our vision. He advice and guidance was so reassuring throughout the entire process. The venue itself is STUNNING. I can’t even express how many compliments I received from our guests. “This is the most beautiful venue I’ve ever been to” and “This is the best cocktail hour I’ve attended” was uttered all throughout the night. The fact that guests could dance at the reception, and then step outside on the balcony made it such an incredible reception space. Everyone loved it! Edwin was our Maître D. He was so friendly and detail oriented. I didn’t notice a single thing that didn’t go the way I wanted it to, and I know it was because Edwin was running a tight ship behind the scenes. The food was incredible and the bartenders were so friendly. Ali handled our room block, and I was also so pleased with the level of communication. Ali was responsive and accommodative of our requests. I didn’t hear a single complaint about the check in process, and the rooms were updated, clean, and beautiful. The Skyline Suite is also perfect for those “getting ready photos” the morning of J All in all, I think the Envue is a hidden gem of a wedding venue! With the ferry right in front of the venue, you can have all the perks of NYC while avoiding the craziness. Thank you, Envue and Team!”

“My company, Expressway Music, has been dj'ing parties and events in NYC since 1992. This is what i've noticed over the many, many weddings and events we have dj'd at Manhattan Penthouse. The staff has been working there for many years. this is SO RARE in this business and so essential in having an extra special party. Their staff is friendly, helpful, and hardworking. the work as they are one unit and everything is dene seamlessly. Whether you book your event with Alisa, Glen or Monika you will be getting someone who will treat you and your guests like royalty..i've heard from clients that the service is so good there they felt like they were the venue's sole client. The views are also second to none. You will be on the Penthouse of a 5th ave building with views facing all sections of the city. The food is consistently on point and delicious and i have heard from clients that pricing is more than fair. You will be in very good hands here..in the 20 years we've been doing gigs here we have had only the best experiences!!”

“If you're looking for a space to host a shower, a rehearsal dinner or an intimate dinner party wedding reception Manhattan, be sure to check out the mezzanine at Tarallucci e Vino in Union Square. We held our family meal/rehearsal dinner here, and it was a resounding success. Having a fully separate event space gave us complete privacy, and lounge area felt like a dinner party at someone's house instead of a restaurant. Our wedding was in NYC, but we live in San Francisco / Dallas, so remote planning was challenging. From the beginning, Amanda and her team were outstanding: scheduling tours and tastings when we were in the city, quickly responding to questions, and ensuring that the smallest details were carefully addressed. Before booking Tarallucci, I toured at least a dozen other spaces. Amanda was by far the most professional and thorough event manager I met with, and I felt completely reassured that everything was handled. Re: budget, prices were equal to or better than similar restaurants that did not provide the privacy, central location, or quality of food/space/service. Amanda was also transparent with pricing and what was included/what we could add, which was a huge help with our budget and planning. On the night of our event, the Tarallucci Team went above and beyond: The team adeptly navigated a crazy monsoon thunderstorm without batting an eye, and our families immediately felt at home and welcomed. Fresh flowers matched our wedding decor, printed menus were placed on each plate, and glasses were always filled with drinks of choice. The food was amazing (and plentiful!), and the atmosphere was exactly what we'd hoped for. It was a warm and homey place that allowed our families to relax and share stories over a delicious meal. We appreciated the much needed time together. I wish I had photos to share, but we were all so caught up in our evening that we didn't take any photos that showcased the lovely space! Truly, it is a hidden gem in Union Square -- and we are so pleased to have discovered the mezzanine at Tarallucci e Vino.”

“When my husband and I initially came across The Skylark during our search, we were nervous that there were so few reviews, especially compared to the more “popular” venues in NYC. We took a chance and never looked back. The first factor in choosing The Skylark was the location. Most of our wedding guests were from out of state, and its convenient Midtown location made travel to/from LGA and securing hotel accommodations incredibly easy. The second was the venue itself. Our vision was an intimate and swanky wedding, so we wanted to be intentional about a guest experience that would echo the spirit that is NYC. Our biggest must-have was high-quality food. We chose a seated reception with an appetizer, entrée, and butlered desserts. The beautiful plating made it feel like an upscale dinner, and nearly five months later, our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was, especially the hors d’oeuvres. Kudos to Abigail Kirsch catering! We also wanted a picturesque backdrop, and we were able to use the outdoor patio (available April–November). The golden-hour views of TS and the ESB from the rooftop made for gorgeous photos. Most services included in the wedding package were kept in-house. In addition to cocktail hour and dinner, the package included an open bar, furniture, tableware, and linens. We also paid an additional fee to host our ceremony there, and the staff did a great job flipping the space within the scheduled timeframe. The third factor was The Skylark team. We could not have asked for a better group of professionals. They went above and beyond, from thoughtful touches in the bridal and groom’s suites (charcuterie boards and iced drinks to keep everyone fed and hydrated) to the elegant presentation of hors d’oeuvres and celebratory to-go gift bags. We also greatly appreciated the care with which our personal belongings were packed at the end of the night. None of these details went unnoticed, and we received so many compliments on the food, venue, service, and overall experience. Special shout-outs to LeighAnne, Candace, and Kaybri. LeighAnne was our main point of contact during the initial booking process and was such a blessing. She consistently responded to emails within 24 hours, which was especially important as we planned from out of state. Candace and Kaybri became our main contacts during the planning phase, and their support, expertise, and flexibility made the entire experience seamless. They accommodated requests, such as moving our rehearsal to the day before and extending venue access time. Our final planning session with Candace was two weeks prior, and she reassured us that everything would go well and all we needed to do was enjoy the moment. On the day of, Candace and Kaybri were a well-oiled machine. My husband and I were blown away by how smoothly everything ran according to our timeline, and are still convinced there were no hiccups—that’s how perfect it went. It is incredible how amazing they are at their jobs, and anyone can tell they genuinely love what they do. Additionally, I cannot recall the name of the attendant in my bridal suite, but she was an absolute angel. She fixed my headpiece for photos, helped me use the bathroom in my dress, and checked on me throughout the night. From the bottom of our hearts, my husband and I are forever grateful to The Skylark team for bringing our vision to life. We would absolutely host another event here and cannot wait to come back!”

“Having never been privy to what goes into a wedding reception, I was in the dark about a lot. So, I had difficulty understanding what to choose and how much our choices would cost. If it wasn’t for the close proximity to the church, I may have chosen a different venue for our reception. The food and beverage was the biggest expense and the biggest source of confusion. The real disappointment of the F&B was the limited amount of food. The shrimp appetizer was good. However, there was so little, if you didn’t grab some, it was gone. Of the three entrees to choose from, the only one that was any good was the fish and the portion was less than one would reasonably expect for an entree. The chicken was dry and hard, a huge disappointment. The lemon tart dessert was good. The space itself is very nice. Fortunately, it was just the right size for our reception.”

“We could not have asked for a better experience with Maritime Parc for our wedding. From the very first planning meetings through the last moment of our wedding day, their team was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and professional. The meetings leading up to our wedding were extremely helpful. As details came together and timing and logistics continued to evolve, the team was always willing to talk things through and accommodate where they could. Maritime Parc is clearly a well-oiled machine — they do a lot of weddings, and understandably, some things have an established way of being done. But what impressed me was that even within that structure, they never made us feel like “just another wedding.” They found ways to make our experience feel personal and special while still keeping everything running efficiently. I especially want to recognize Priscilla, who technically was not even our day-of coordinator, but somehow became so much more than that to us and our family. My dad is… particular, to put it very nicely , and had a million questions, requests, and concerns throughout the planning process. Priscilla handled every single one with incredible patience, kindness, and professionalism. At some point, she was basically his therapist, point person, and honorary member of the family all in one. She went so far above and beyond what we ever expected, and she was there with us throughout the entire wedding day to make sure everything went smoothly. Having someone we trusted that much there with us made such a difference. And then the wedding day itself was absolutely seamless. Every transition was precise and perfectly timed, from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception. Our bridal attendant was an absolute fairy godmother — she anticipated everything I could possibly need before I even had to ask. Even something as small as coordinating exactly when the doors would open for my walk down the aisle was handled flawlessly. There was never a moment where I felt like I had to worry about what was happening behind the scenes. Everything was top notch: the service, the food, the staff, the attention to detail, and especially the level of care they gave us and our families. You spend so much time planning a wedding and worrying about all of the little things, and Maritime Parc gave us the gift of being able to actually enjoy our wedding day because we knew everything was in good hands. It is obvious that this team knows exactly what they are doing, but somehow they still made us feel like our wedding was uniquely important to them — even knowing that ours was one of so many weddings they put on. That combination of experience, organization, flexibility, and genuine personal care is what made Maritime Parc so special to us. We are so grateful to the entire Maritime Parc team, and especially Priscilla, for making our wedding feel so personal and so incredibly well cared for. We would recommend Maritime Parc to anyone looking for a venue that will not only execute your wedding beautifully, but will genuinely take care of you and your family along the way.”

“We had our New Year’s Eve wedding in the Liberty House ballroom, and it was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From start to finish, the experience was great. Our event stylist, Sarah, was amazing and played such a huge role in bringing our vision to life. I had a lot of ideas (some a bit outside the box!), and Liberty House worked with us to thoughtfully incorporate them into our wedding and our budget, including espresso martini shots on the dance floor, which was such a fun and memorable moment for our guests. The food was outstanding, especially cocktail hour. Guests are still talking about it. The pasta station was a crowd favorite, and we added the sushi station, which was an absolute hit as well. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The views alone are unbeatable. We had the most stunning Manhattan skyline backdrop at a much better price than venues actually in Manhattan or nearby. Another huge plus was being able to decorate the ceiling of the ballroom, which completely elevated the space. We used Liberty House’s preferred florist, JR Floral Designs, and absolutely loved working with them. Communication throughout the planning process was great. One thing to note is that Liberty House is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so depending on when you email, there may be a short wait for a response but once they’re back, they are responsive and helpful. The week of the wedding, we were able to drop off all of our décor and personal details, which made the wedding day itself so smooth and stress-free. While there isn’t a traditional getting-ready suite, there is a small room to store belongings, enjoy a private cocktail hour, and a private restroom. I personally got ready at a suite at the Hyatt House and took an Uber over, which worked out perfectly. Overall, Liberty House exceeded our expectations in every way. Between the views, the food, the flexibility, and the incredible team, we couldn’t imagine a better place to have celebrated our wedding — especially on NYE. Highly recommend!”

“I love photographing weddings at Manhatta restaurant in downtown Manhattan. The team at Manhatta couldn't have been more professional, accommodating and friendly! The last couple I photographed at Manhatta had such a great time, which was evident in the joy and love in the photos. The rooms were infused with light and a beautiful warm glow at sunset. The views of the city were breathtaking - the guests were very impressed.

“The venue itself is a hidden gem—not because it should stay a secret, but because more couples should know about it. The setting is breathtaking, with sweeping views of the reservoir, graceful weeping willows, and beautifully maintained grounds that make you feel like you’ve escaped the city, even though you’re only minutes from it. Inside, the industrial architecture is elegant, warm, and timeless. The space has so much character that we hardly needed additional décor because the venue itself is the décor. One of the biggest reasons we chose The View was its location. I wanted the beauty and tranquility of a park without sacrificing the energy and charm of an urban setting, and this venue delivered both perfectly. Our guests stayed in vibrant Downtown Jersey City, enjoyed everything the city has to offer, and took quick, inexpensive Ubers and Lyfts to the venue. It struck exactly the balance we were hoping for: a gorgeous natural setting with all the convenience of a city wedding. As a lifelong NYC girl, I also loved introducing our guests to Jersey City. They got to experience its beauty, character, and incredible food scene without ever needing to venture into Manhattan. Our guests loved moving between the indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the evening, and we received countless compliments on the venue. The food was phenomenal—beautifully presented, delicious, and genuinely some of the best wedding food many of our guests had ever had. If I could offer one suggestion, it would be to consider adding one more day-of staff member during key moments. Ivy was clearly managing an incredible amount behind the scenes, and having another team member available during transitions would make an already outstanding experience even more seamless. This isn’t a reflection on Ivy—quite the opposite. She was extraordinary, and the number of responsibilities she handled so gracefully speaks to just how valuable she is. The entire team made us feel like our wedding was just as important to them as it was to us. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail created a celebration that exceeded every expectation, and we are so grateful. If you’re considering The View at Lincoln Park, don’t hesitate. It is one of the most beautiful, professionally run, and genuinely special wedding venues in the region. We would choose it again in a heartbeat.”

“We could not have asked for a better experience with 3 West Club and our incredible event coordinator, Jonah. From the very beginning, Jonah was an absolute professional—always responsive, flexible, and attentive to every detail. He went above and beyond at every step, making us feel completely supported throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, he executed everything flawlessly, and it’s no exaggeration to say we could not have done it without him. Jonah is truly the best, and we feel so lucky to have had him by our side. The venue itself was stunning—the event spaces are elegant, timeless, and created the perfect atmosphere for our wedding reception. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the space and how seamlessly the day flowed. Beyond the gorgeous setting, the food was absolutely phenomenal. From the cocktail hour to the dinner, every dish was beautifully presented and delicious. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had, and we couldn’t agree more.

“Our experience with CBH was nothing short of perfect! We had a small 54-person cocktail hour and reception, both in the Othmer Library, and we could not have dreamed of a more perfect space. The overall atmosphere of the library was incredible, and we leaned hard into the old-world feel of the space. Our guests were in awe when they walked in, and the fact that we were able to be involved every step of the way made it so special. CBH works exclusively with Purslane as their caterer, and all communication was done through Purslane, who are also amazing and make fabulous food. (We had many raving guests.) They also help arrange all the rentals, create the run of show, and ensure the night is running along as planned, which it did! A few things we weren't expecting: - The library itself is on the smaller side, so if you want to have dinner and dancing there, you're looking at 60 people tops. This worked out fine for us with plenty of room for a dance floor, but we did have to significantly cut our guest list. - Since the building is a historical landmark, no food or drink that could stain (red sauce, red wine, coffee, etc.) was allowed. This never bothered us, and none of our guests even noticed since we had a fully stocked bar and incredibly delicious food. - We were required to hire a professional day-of coordinator. This was not part of our budget, so be prepared if it's not in yours either. We ended up working with Mostest since they were the least expensive service we could find, and they were amazing. It turned out to be so useful to have our DOC there, so we're happy this rule was imposed, as it led to a seamless night! - The library set up a new exhibit a few weeks before our wedding in the Fransioli Gallery where we were to have our cocktail hour, and we did not know what it would constitute until a few weeks out. We ended up deciding the contents of the exhibit weren't very well suited to a wedding, and CBH/Purslane were incredibly accommodating, offering to put up pipe and drape or move the cocktail hour. We chose to move it to be in the Othmer and were so happy with that decision. Overall, CBH is a 10/10! Our wedding felt like a dream, and anything we had to sacrifice was far outweighed by the stunning space. We would highly recommend CBH as a venue if you're looking for a more intimate night with immaculate vibes!”
