We had our wedding at SRS last weekend and it was incredible. The ceremony on the pier was unbelievably scenic. The space was perfect for our 165 person wedding. The staff, especially Una (hired as our planner) were helpful and accommodating to basically everything we asked for leading up to the wedding. We had such a special day and a lot of that had to do with how great our venue was! Highly recommend SRS.

We booked The Sanctuary as our venue back in 2023 when they were just re-opening, and we have zero regrets! Every New Yorker should have this place on its radar! The very first day we were there with Fonsi, we knew we were in good hands! Everything was perfect: the pier set-up for the ceremony, the open bar, grazing table and passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour and finally the dessert table and pizza stations for the after party. The food was AMAZING and cooked on-site so it was as fresh as it can be! And then they seamlessly cleared out the cocktail area and transformed it into the dancefloor while we were all enjoying our dinner buffet in a separate tented pavillion. Shout out to Amelia, Frank, Artur, Cat, and the rest of their wonderful team!

I had my wedding on 9/26/25 and the venue looked so beautiful! Even better than when I toured it back in November. Carmela and Mona were so helpful and accommodating during the planning process. There were so many last minute changes and hiccups like transportation vendors falling through, but Carmela was able to help me book last minute transportation that was even bigger than I was expecting! Everything went so much better than I imagined and all the guests were so impressed with the venue and food! Evette (I hope I’m spelling her name right) was my bridal attendant the day of. She was fantastic, made sure I was no longer on my phone, helped with transportation throughout the venue and kept me calm during the ceremony. I can’t thank them enough for making this day so special!

Our wedding at Terrace on the Park was truly the wedding of our dreams, and we cannot recommend this venue enough. From the moment we started planning, the staff made us feel supported, excited, and completely taken care of every step of the way. Nicole and Bruno were absolutely amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable, organized, and genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but they made the entire process feel smooth and exciting. We can’t thank them enough. On the day of the wedding, Bridal Attendant Tatiana and Bridal attendant in-training Sheyla were honestly lifesavers. They never left my side and made sure I had everything I needed at all times, from drinks and food to fixing my lip gloss. They made me feel calm, cared for, and able to fully enjoy every moment of the day. Walter, our maitre’d, was incredible as well. He kept everything running on schedule while making the entire night feel effortless and seamless. ( I actually forgot my boutique of flowers before walking down the aisle and the staff RAN to go get it for me) The food was AMAZING. The chef and his team did such an incredible job. Everything was delicious, beautifully prepared, and there were so many options for our guests to enjoy. We are still getting compliments about the food weeks later! ( Get the Mongolian beef!!! You won’t regret it). The bartenders also deserve a huge shoutout because they were AMAZING all night long. They were friendly, fast, attentive, and kept the drinks flowing the entire evening. And the venue itself? Absolutely stunning. Elegant, romantic, and everything we could have imagined. One of our favorite parts was being able to enjoy both the indoor Penthouse ballroom and the outdoor balcony overlooking the city. The sunset rooftop photos were breathtaking and gave us some of the most beautiful memories from our wedding day. We received endless compliments from our guests about the atmosphere, service, food, and overall experience. Terrace on the Park made us feel like royalty, while still making the night feel fun, warm, and personal. 10/10 recommend Terrace on the Park for your wedding or special event, they truly made our dream wedding come to life.

My husband and I hosted our entire wedding weekend at The Rockaway Hotel in May 2026, and it was a dream come true, thanks to the cool and beautiful venue, the incredible guest experience, most importantly, team at TRH who made it come true. Our venue search was unique. With roots in both NY NJ, we were torn between wanted a beach or city wedding The Rockaway Hotel checked every box an It's accessible from Manhattan, LI, NJ, and the airports, while still feeling like a true beach getaway. The moment we walked into the hotel, and especially when we stepped onto the rooftop overlooking both the ocean and the Manhattan skyline, we knew we had found our venue. It's chic, modern, beachy, and fun, and it felt so perfectly "us." We also loved that we could host our entire wedding weekend in one place while giving our guests a completely unique experience. Throughout planning, we worked closely with Erika, Kristen, Jay, and Margo, alongside our incredible planner, Lexi from Finally May. Margo made managing our hotel room block effortless, and the entire team made us feel like we could truly customize our wedding. They welcomed our ideas, worked seamlessly with all of our outside vendors, and helped us create a weekend that felt completely personal to us. There was a change in event leadership during planning that created a few bumps early on, but once the final team was in place, everything came together beautifully. One of the biggest reasons we'd recommend The Rockaway Hotel is the variety of spaces throughout the property. We hosted our welcome party in the Pool House, our ceremony on the Ocean Terrace, cocktail hour on the rooftop, our reception in the Harbor Room, and ended the night with an after-party back upstairs. Every event felt completely different while still being under one roof, which made the entire weekend so easy and enjoyable for our guests. Our ceremony was originally planned for the Ocean Terrace, and despite an incredibly windy wedding day, the team went above and beyond to make it happen safely. They checked in with me, supported my decision to move forward, and worked to ensure everything was perfect. I'll never be able to thank the team enough for making the ceremony of our dreams happen. The hotel is also an incredible backdrop for photos. Every space, from the lobby to Margie's to the rooftop, has its own personality, and we used it all for our wedding photos, which turned out incredible The food was outstanding all weekend long, the drinks never stopped flowing, and every single staff member made us and our guests feel genuinely cared for. Looking back, what made The Rockaway Hotel so special was the combination of a beautiful venue, the ability to host our loved ones together for an entire weekend, and a team that truly cared about bringing our vision to life. As an anxious bride, I always felt like I was in good hands. Since our wedding, we've had countless guests tell us it was one of, if not the, best weddings they've ever attended. While so many people helped make our weekend unforgettable, The Rockaway Hotel was the foundation that made it all possible. If you're looking for a venue that feels like a destination wedding without ever leaving New York, I cannot recommend The Rockaway Hotel enough. We will forever be grateful that our marriage began here.
