    Gilded Wedding Night

    Oscar Wilde was the perfect place to celebrate our Wedding. We didn’t want the cookie cutter so it was a perfect Reception. Made my planning so easy because with them I had venue, food, bar, staff and rentals already included in one place, much more affordable than booking separately. Our guests loved it, it was so Old New York.

    I am so thankful we chose Oscar Wilde for our Ceremony & Reception. We knew we were looking for a unique and memorable venue in New York City, and Oscar Wilde surely did not disappoint. Their Events Team was communicative from beginning to end - helping to plan Cocktail Hour, Seated Dinner, a Late Night Snack, and more. We were lucky enough to book during one of their decor installations, which made it even more memorable. The staff, management, and employees were absolutely incredible & attentive throughout the evening. Thank you for everything you did to make our wedding day a moment I'll never forget!

    We chose Oscar Wilde for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with our decision. The team was quick to respond to all our questions, whether we called or emailed, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. The venue itself is stunning—the space is so beautifully designed that it looked incredible with or without decorations, and the price felt fair for what we got. From our first conversation through the end of our reception, my husband and I felt truly valued and taken care of. Every detail went perfectly, and we loved every moment. We're already planning to host more events here and would definitely recommend Oscar Wilde to any couple looking for a special place to celebrate.
