Carroll Hall was everything we wanted in a venue and more. We had passed by it many times, always wondering what was behind that tall brick wall. When we finally stepped inside, it was like discovering a secret garden—and we immediately knew it was where we wanted to get married. The garden itself is lush, artfully landscaped, and rich with detail. It feels like a living piece of art that evolves with the seasons, and we loved that it didn’t need much decor to feel special. At the same time, the space is fully customizable—a beautiful, flexible canvas that we could shape into something that felt completely personal to us. From our first meeting with Jalisa, we felt understood. She was warm, kind, and deeply engaged in our vision from day one. Throughout the planning process, she and Andrew were generous with their time—we were able to visit the space multiple times, walk through with our vendors, and work closely on all the logistics. They were endlessly accommodating, communicative, and open to our ideas. We incorporated some unique touches—turning the treehouse into a record room for guests to “shop” for vinyls, hosting private vows upstairs in the bridal suite, flipping the space throughout the night—and they helped us bring every detail to life seamlessly. They even worked with us on a signature cocktail that tied into the mood of the evening. Carroll Hall truly feels like a tucked-away dream in the middle of Bushwick. Our guests were in awe of it, and so many of our vendors told us it was one of the best venues they’d worked in. If you have a vision and want a space that lets you express it, this is the place. It’s cozy, expansive, and unforgettable—all at once.

If you have visited the Foundry, you know how amazing and beautiful it is, but what you don’t know before you work with them is how responsive and helpful they are once you have committed to them. We had about 130 guests and used the main room for the ceremony, the greenhouse room and space outside for the cocktail hour, the courtyard for the reception dinner, the main room again for the dancing, and the greenhouse room again for the after party (11 to midnight). We also rented the Du Val suite for getting ready, and it was a superb space for the groom’s party and extended family to get ready and hang out and also has the most beautiful garden with city views. Our wedding was absolutely amazing and vindicated our immediate love for the Foundry that we developed the first time we toured it, and the Foundry staff are extremely helpful and kind.

The rose room is such a unique venue in LIC that offers incredible views of the city!! However, the liberty to transform the venue into any type of space is what I loved most - its a gorgeous blank canvas that lends itself to any theme. Erica has been so great to work with - unfortunately the wedding planning process can be filled with roadblocks and hurdles but the rose room has by far been the least complicated vendor to work with!

My husband and I just got married at Terrace on the Park on 2/17/24 in the Penthouse. The venue is absolutely stunning. We had looked at plenty of venues before selecting this one. From the start, Mildred was so helpful. Answering any questions we had and making sure all of our expectations were met and exceeded. The finalist manager, Nicole, was also amazing. Both her & Mildred were there on our wedding day to make sure everything went as planned. The chapel was set up beautifully for our ceremony, and the cocktail hour in the garden suite was amazing (from what we heard). The venue itself provides breathtaking views of the city and the surrounding landmarks, such as the world’s fair globe, citifield, Arthur Ashe stadium, and others. I wish I could go back to the beginning and plan it again with the same people!

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. The entire 3 West Club team provided exceptional service, going out of their way to make sure we (and our guests) were well taken care of from start to finish. Their warmth and professionalism made us feel so at ease, and we were able to fully enjoy every moment of the celebration. We have nothing but phenomenal things to say about 3 West Club and Jonah.

Where do I begin? I had my wedding during COVID, which wasn't easy on anyone. But, still deciding to get married, having it at Premier718, was the best decision we made. Everything went off without a hitch. Jeanette took all the pressure off my back. I gave her my ideas and she bought each one to life. I didn't see anything right until I walked in after the ceremony and when I tell you I was completely in love! The venue is modern, clean, and spacious. Words can't express how grateful and appreciative of the service I received. She took care of the decor, the cake, the food and the alcohol, and I was not disappointed. P.S Can I also mention she did all of this for me in a matter of like 10 days. Which I don't think anyone should do. haha. What I'm trying to say is that I definitely recommend Premier718!!

The Skylark 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Up to 80 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $20,000

Guests appreciate the exceptional service and the expertly crafted cocktails, adding a unique touch to the celebration. The professional staff ensures a seamless event, handling all details with precision. The Skylark offers an elegant and modern venue, perfect for a stylish and memorable wedding experience.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Full catering menu to choose from
  • Has a sophisticated vibe
  • Provides setup and cleanup

Venue considerations

  • No in-house lighting and sound packages available
  • Dance floor not included
  • No on-premises lodging options
Skylark was the best possible venue we could have booked for our wedding reception, full stop. Throughout the booking process, they were always highly responsive and professional. They invited us back for drink tastings, for catering option tastings, and even once got my now-wife and her two friends a table on a crowded Saturday night without a reservation. All in all, the venue itself is amazing. We lucked out and got the rooftop for our cocktail hour which we extended an extra 45m 'til sunset and our guests loved taking photos. The main dance area / bar of Skylark is fashionable, chic, and has a certain vibe that meshed perfectly with what my wife and I were looking for. They also have excellent side-rooms for the wedding party to take a moment to decompress in a cool leather-bound corner apartment with its own bar, bathroom, and changing area. The were a few things that really caught my attention as we were touring for the first time: the downstairs entrance is dark, moody, and intentionally a bit industrial which really helps set a New York vibe. Upstairs, I noticed our tour guide thought the music was a touch too loud in one of the side-rooms, so he immediately tweaked the volume down a notch on their iPad music controls. The drinks were excellent (we opted for the Cherry Blossom Old Fashioned and the French 75 for our wedding cocktails). We also came back to sample the food options (we went for a cocktail-style dinner with phased courses throughout the night), & they were all incredibly delicious thanks to Skylark's partnership with Abigail Kirsch. Lastly, our coordinator was Phil Montana and he is one of the best parts of our experience. He has exceptional attention to detail, coordination skills, and a warm & empathetic personality. I would also like to recognize the staff who were all wonderful in taking care of us & our guests throughout the night. If you are on the fence, I would highly suggest a tour. When we booked, Skylark did not have a ton of reviews either on Zola or on The Knot, so this review is my way of encouraging any readers to give it a shot -- if you are looking for a fashionable, chic New York wedding experience, The Skylark really cannot be beat. I'm looking forward to returning periodically as regular customers as well!
