Awarded Best of Zola
Smack Mellon is, to put it mildly, a wonderful venue. The brick interior and high ceilings (I believe it was an old boiler room dating from DUMBO's bygone industrial days well before West Elm) provides ample room for whatever you desire. We worked closely with Jessica, who was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She remained quite receptive to each of our many suggestions. Everyone at Smack Mellon was very accommodating, too, letting us drop off some items the day prior (this was an invaluable service amid standard pre-wedding chaos). Since the space is relatively blank, you can add to it, creating a wholly personal experience that properly reflects you and your event. And of course, there's the view of the Manhattan Bridge. If you're visiting the space, take the ferry. Easier than finding parking and nicer than the subway.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding at the Greenpoint Loft in September was absolutely perfect. We looked at all types of spaces- historic banks, lofts, traditional wedding spaces... Nothing felt right until we walked into GPL. The space is a "blank slate" in that you have to bring every thing in, but it has such beautiful bones and so much character and warmth. Working with Adam and BK events made bringing everything in super easy, and our vendors seemed to have no issues with the functionality of the space. We worked with their preferred vendors (ULS was fantastic for lighting) and some of our own, and the GPL team was flexible and accommodating at every step. This venue felt like our own little world, even though we were inside a larger building. We were initially concerned about one shared elevator to get 160 guests upstairs but it was no problem at all. Also, doing the ceremony in the round was so intimate and beautiful. We were also concerned with how we would flip the ceremony into cocktail/dinner while folks were still in the main space because we couldn't get everyone up to the mezzanine with 165 guests, but it worked pretty seamlessly because the main floor is big enough for people to spread out while the caterers moved chairs, and some people were upstairs. I can't recommend this venue enough, it is worth the extra effort to bring your own vision to life inside this beautiful space.

Carroll Hall 
Brooklyn, NY
  • Up to 100 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,150

We love the city, but really need more time in nature. We assume most New Yorkers would agree. We created this space to allow our community a quiet space among plants, birds, insects, and urban wildlife. Carroll Hall is a warehouse space, garden, lounge, a skylit indoor room, catering kitchen, and discreet wooden “treehouse.” Discovery, wonder, and the unexpected are big themes. Whether an eccentric insect or vignette through a wall opening, we revel in curiosity. Ultimately, the garden is the heart of Carroll Hall; the promise of a quiet moment outside is our grounding force. See the COVID precautions we are taking in the rooms section.
