Renaissance Event Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. They answered all of our questions promptly and were very flexible in accommodating our requests. On the day of the wedding, the staff was attentive and ensured everything ran smoothly. The space itself was beautiful, with elegant decor and ample room for our guests to mingle. It rained the day of my wedding, we originally wanted to use the outdoor space for the ceremony and take photos outside but were unable, the team had everything set up for the ceremony indoors and all my photos turned out great despite the weather. The food was also delicious. We are so grateful to the Renaissance Event Hall team for helping to make our wedding day so special.

We were blown away by the team at Glasserie. Emily was very easy to work with throughout the whole planning process and we really appreciated how responsive and organized she was.

The Standard, East Village 

4.0

New York, NY
  • Up to 50 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Located off Cooper Square in one of New York’s most vibrant, artistic neighborhoods, The Standard, East Village is cozy, charming, and eccentric in equal measure—very much in the spirit of its surroundings. You enter the 21-story tower through an original tenement-style building before ascending to unparalleled views of Manhattan from the hotel's crowned jewel, The Penthouse. There’s a quiet, calm garden tucked away at street level that in the warmer months is filled with lush topiaries and floral arrangements, and in the cold season transforms into a magical winter wonderland. On the second floor, The Overlook is a cozy room perfect for a rehearsal dinner or cocktails, connected to The Perch which overlooks The Garden. Downstairs, there's Narcissa restaurant, which boasts its own private terrace, the street-side Café Standard, and NO BAR, a highly inclusive new wave gay bar with custom artwork and a disco ball.

Having never been privy to what goes into a wedding reception, I was in the dark about a lot. So, I had difficulty understanding what to choose and how much our choices would cost. If it wasn’t for the close proximity to the church, I may have chosen a different venue for our reception. The food and beverage was the biggest expense and the biggest source of confusion. The real disappointment of the F&B was the limited amount of food. The shrimp appetizer was good. However, there was so little, if you didn’t grab some, it was gone. Of the three entrees to choose from, the only one that was any good was the fish and the portion was less than one would reasonably expect for an entree. The chicken was dry and hard, a huge disappointment. The lemon tart dessert was good. The space itself is very nice. Fortunately, it was just the right size for our reception.

Trust your instincts, and when you find that venue that gives you butterflies, you'll know it's the one.

What questions should I ask when booking a venue in New York, NY?

It all depends on what you're looking for, but you may want to consider things like whether the venue has an on-site bridal suite (25% in New York do) or whether the venue provides an event coordinator (38% in New York do!).

When is the best month for a wedding in New York City?

This is one of those questions that everyone will have a different answer to. The best time to get married in NYC really depends on your vision for your wedding. Is it when Central Park is a wonderland of cherry blossoms, or when the holiday lights make everything twinkle like a rom-com set? Weather-wise, May and June are your best bets for an outdoor wedding. But if you’re dreaming of an "Autumn in New York" aesthetic, aim for September or October when the air is crisp, and your guests won’t be sweating. But let's keep it real – in the city that never sleeps, love doesn't have an off-season, and neither do fabulous weddings. Winter nuptials? You could end up with a magical snowy vibe, and you’ll probably save some money. So ultimately, you can’t go wrong.

How far in advance do I need to book a wedding venue in New York City?

In the fast-paced whirlwind that is NYC, wedding venues can be booked up pretty far in advance. It's a good rule of thumb to start your venue hunt as soon as your engagement bliss begins to settle—usually around 12 to 18 months in advance, and to actually book your venue closer to 9-14 months in advance. If you've set your heart on those prime dates or sought-after spots, earlier is definitely better. Think of it as your very own New York minute—the sooner you act, the more options you'll have. But if you're the spontaneous type or planning on a shorter engagement, don't fret! Flexibility on dates or considering unique or off-the-beaten-path venues can turn up some hidden gems, even at the last minute.

Check out our guide to planning a wedding on a budget for more ideas.

What’s included in a wedding package in NYC?

If you're looking to simplify your wedding planning journey (and who isn't?), opting for an all-inclusive venue with a full wedding package may be a good choice. So, what's typically included? You’ll usually find the venue itself, catering, tables, chairs and linens, and often a dance floor where you and your guests can boogie the night away. And let's not forget the staff! Many packages provide a team of wait staff, bartenders, and on-site coordinators to make sure your day runs as smoothly as possible. But just like your love story, each package is unique, so be sure to ask our vendors about their special touches that make a wedding not just memorable, but unmistakably yours.
