We got married at Diety a couple months ago but we actually found Deity two years prior to that when I stumbled upon this venue online. Originally we were not even searching for a venue in new york city but when we found Deity - I thought, this is too good to be true and booked a viewing immediately. We were immediately impressed with not only the gorgeous venue but their all in one package, and the flexibility and kindness we received on our initial viewing made us confident we found the right place. Throughout the wedding process Caio always answered my questions and were so open to all our ideas and remained flexible to help us execute a unique and special day. On the day of the wedding and leading up we had the pleasure of working with Anastasia who helped execute everything for us. The day ran so smoothly and Anastasia did not miss a beat - she not only ran the entire show, she always made sure we were taken care of and she quickly became a close friend we trusted that night. The chef James executed a special all vegan menu for us and both us and our guests raved about the food and we are still being told our delicious the vegan meatballs were! The bartenders and servers were also all amazing, the drinks were amazing and the service was quick. The DJ also killed it and was able to keep everyone on the dance floor all night and also went above and beyond with our song requests for the day. We are so beyond happy we got married at Deity and could have not found a better venue that cared so much, was filled with so much detail and care and had the best employees working for them who made it all possible.

We recently had our wedding at the 408 and could not be happier with our choice. From the staff to the atmosphere, everything was perfect and our guests had nothing but good things to say. We had about 55 people which made for a cozy and intimate wedding that never felt cramped or awkward in the space. The 408 is already so beautifully decorated which allowed us to bring in minimal items and utilize items already at the 408 such as candles, vases, and plants to decorate the tables and ceremony space. Maria (event manager) was fantastic throughout the planning process answering every question quickly and with detail, and the staff the day of was professional, incredibly friendly, and attentive. We have nothing but good things to say about the 408 and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone regardless of the event type

Wow! We had our wedding at Farm to People (FtP) in June 2026 and we cannot recommend them enough! It was easily the best wedding planning decision we made. Planning: FtP made wedding planning so much easier! From the very beginning we were blown away by how much FtP offered, all at a very reasonable price (especially when looking around at other venues NYC). The in-house catering, rentals, drinks, ceremony space, dessert, and florals significantly cut down on the things we needed to find ourselves, and FtP provided a list of local vendors for the things not provided in house. In addition to offering so much, it was also clear from the start FtP they cared about us and our experience. Rachel was so helpful from the beginning, and met with us regularly to discuss what we wanted and work through the wedding planning process. She would regularly go above and beyond to troubleshoot any issues or answer questions to ensure we were happy with the day. Ariella was also so helpful at managing the staff/logistics. The Space: FtP is absolutely beautiful, especially when dressed up for a wedding. The venue is spacious enough for us to have felt comfortable with our 118 guests, and could probably have accommodated more depending on layout. The two spaces inside FtP, as well as the outdoor space, offer a number of different options for configuring your wedding, especially if you’re planning to have your ceremony and reception there like we did. FtP somehow feels both spacious and intimate - I’m not sure what it is about the space, but every time we were there, it felt like such a beautiful and inviting space. This was no different on our wedding day. We didn’t need much decor and only brought in a couple of signs and two large floral arrangements. One thing to note is there is no traditional “getting ready space” on site, so you will need to get ready elsewhere. Food & Drinks: Food and drinks is one of the areas where FtP especially shines! Their partnerships with local farms ensure they have incredibly fresh, in-season ingredients in their food and drinks. They have different food packages to choose from, and we were able to customize as we wanted (we had passed apps a charcuterie grazing table during the cocktail hour and a buffet for dinner). FtP was also able to easily handle any guest dietary restrictions/allergies. The food was absolutely delicious and there was plenty of it, and we received many compliments from our guests about it! Similarly, the drinks were spectacular! My husband had a vision of the cocktail wanted as “his” at the wedding, which he designed himself. The bar captain at FtP (s/o Jules) was able to work with his recipe to make the cocktail my husband designed to be served at the wedding (which my husband bragged about throughout the night lol). We were able to have 3 custom cocktails (including one named after our cat, which Rachel made a sign for that included her picture 3). All of the staff at FtP were so kind and helpful! We didn’t have any issues with the venue, and we felt like true VIPs and so well taken care of. We had the best, most carefree, love-filled night! All of our guests raved about the food, the space, the drinks, and what a fun time they had at our wedding! FtP is such an incredible value for what they offer, and we’re so thrilled to have had our wedding there. It was worth every penny and then some, and we’re so grateful to all of the staff there! Keep doing what you’re doing FtP!

The venue itself was perfect for our big day. It’s a rustic raw space, but the wood and brick finishes make it warm and inviting. I docked a star because they tried to pull one over on us. When we first booked, they sent a brochure that clearly stated the venue included chiavari chairs, however, when we checked in to confirm the furniture inventory, we were told they never had chiavari chairs and I must be mistaken. When I sent the screenshot and the email with the brochure, they had no explanation. So, I will say this— it’s a nice space, but beware of false advertising.

Overall, the aesthetic of the venue was an incredibly backdrop to our photos, and it really set the tone we were hoping for. Our reception was in the penthouse, and the glittering skyline really made the party feel sophisticated and chic, and unlike any other wedding I’ve been to. We ended up with 150 guests, and the room felt full in a lively way without ever being overcrowded. We had some concerns about the hotel after reading reviews, and those concerns were promptly alleviated.

We got married at the Picnic House in April 2024 and had a great experience! It's a beautiful space that you can do a lot with. We really appreciated both having both the flexibility of choosing amongst a variety of vendors, as well as the assurance that given their experience with the venue that they'd be easy to work with day of (which was true- we had a very smooth wedding day!). We really appreciated working with Caity, who was very responsive over email and quick to pick up the phone. Our only struggle was in acquiring our parking passes (that was really the mail's fault) and in getting some answers early on regarding external alcohol policies. And I would say be very careful in selecting your caterer, since they'll make or break your experience. But overall I would absolutely recommend the Picnic House to anyone! The price really can't be beat for what you're getting.

From the breathtaking views to the organization, flexibility, and seamless planning process, everything was beyond what I could have hoped for. Bob took incredible care of us, and the entire staff was so friendly and attentive. Every detail I wanted was executed perfectly, and all of our guests were so happy and impressed. I was nervous about things going wrong or that I was asking for too much but everything was truly flawless, Bob made it feel like nothing was ever “too much”. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience thank you so much, and I hope to be back again someday!

Kin is the hot spot for bashes big and small.

We welcome parties of all sizes, for any occasion. To accommodate all styles, the space isn’t overly “designed.” We’ve intentionally left it a blank canvas, so to speak. We offer the opportunity to customize everything on your big day from seating to sips and snacks. We work closely with the area’s leading rental companies to provide the most beautiful table settings and our bar manager will design a signature drink or pair the perfect beverage service with your meal.

We held our wedding at Kin this past October, and our experience was exceptional. Kate, our coordinator, was so fantastic—attentive and ensured the day ran seamlessly. She was so good at communicating leading up to the wedding as well. Kin isn't your typical wedding venue; they prioritize individuality, listening to your vision and bringing it to life. The space is a beautiful blank canvas and the location is ideal as it’s right off East Ave and very close to hotels. Both Kin and Root, owned by Kristen, excel in quality and service. Kristen's holistic approach to food was evident, making it a highlight of our day. Honestly, the staff was just beyond incredible. They made the day by bringing positive energy and ensuring everything was perfect. Would highly recommend!!

Soooo thankful to have found Rustic Pines for our destination wedding! Being from out of state we were a bit worried to be planning a wedding over 5 hours away, but Steph and her crew made it beyond easy. She was super prompt with answering any and all questions we had and took care of practically everything the day of.

My women's education and networking group, the Women's Professional Network (WPN) held an event at Revel 32 on the evening of June 29. The venue is simply amazing! Beautiful, well laid out for any type of event. On the first floor there is a greeting/social area. When you climb to the top of the beautiful stairway, there is a small area that leads to a larger meeting room. There is a beautiful bar between these 2 rooms. There is also a larger room with a lovely stage. On the third floor there is another room and an exquisite balcony overlooking the second floor. The venue layout was very conducive to a networking event like ours. The hostess ( Judy Hannon) and her team were so hospitable and warm. Parking is readily available next to the building or in the public parking lot across the street. I would highly recommend Revel 32 as a venue for any type of event. The Revel 32 team will be sure to make your event a memorable one. Lea Bishop, CEO of the WPN
