The Wedding Website of Emily Forde and Matt Richter
Nestled at the very top of Brooklyn, Greenpoint is one of New York City's fastest growing neighborhoods. It's quieter than the city, but there's still plenty to do and see, including the best view of the NYC skyline. The Ceremony and Dinner will both take place in the charming courtyard of Milk & Roses in Greenpoint. More to come on this. For guests traveling to NYC, we've blocked a number of rooms at the nearby Box House Hotel, but recognize many of you might prefer to stay in the city. We've suggested a couple alternative hotels near convenient Subway lines for venturing around Manhattan, just know to get to and from the venue, it will be easiest to Uber/Lyft. For those choosing to stay in Brooklyn, we recommend flying into LaGuardia (LGA). It is by far the easiest commute. For those choosing to stay in Manhattan, LaGuardia (LGA) and Newark (EWR) are about the same distance. If you fly into JFK, no complaining. See Suggested Hotels Below:

The Box House Hotel is located on the same street as the venue and offers an upscale boutique stay right in Greenpoint. While it's very close to the venue, it is a little further from the Subway for anyone eager to venture into the city. From this location it is a roughly 10-minute walk to either the 7-Train or G-Train. To get a discount, book online and write "634876 Forde/Richter Wedding Block" in the notes. (NOT UNDER PROMO CODE)

POD Hotels offer a minimalist and less expensive NYC stay. The rooms are simple, chic and cozy with just the necessities. For guests looking to save money and have easy access to the rest of the city, these are a great option. While we do not have a block at either of these properties, they still offer a more cost-effective option. POD Brooklyn is located near the L and G trains in the heart of Williamsburg, one of New York's buzziest neighborhoods. Walking distance to countless bars, and some of Brooklyn’s best restaurants, it is a 10-minute Uber/Lyft and easy 15-minute G-Train ride from the venue. From this hotel, Manhattan is easily accessible via the L-Train.
