We have customized menus to reflect your individual tastes and style, and our event coordinator will work together with you to make sure all of your specific needs are taken care of. Whether your event is an intimate cocktail reception or a formal affair, we will make sure that our space exceeds your expectations!

With intimate gardens and spectacular views of the Hudson River and New Jersey Palisades, Wave Hill offers the most romantic setting in New York City for your unforgettable wedding. Your ceremony takes place at the Pergola on the Great Lawn, with your cocktail hour there— or on either the Lower Lawn or the Kate French Terrace adjacent to historic Wave Hill House. Dinner is held in Armor Hall. Capacity there is capped at 130 guests, including a small band and dance floor in the Hall. If you choose to locate the dance floor nearby in the adjacent Mark Twain Room, then capacity increases to a limit of 180 guests. Weddings at Wave Hill take place only in the evening, with guests arriving after the gardens have closed to the general public. Only one evening event is booked per date to ensure your event is private and exclusive. All events work with our exclusive caterer Great Performances to create a personalized, quality experience for you and your guests.

No matter the season, let the stunning landscape of The New York Botanical Garden create the perfect backdrop for your wedding. In the spring, surround yourself with the lush English roses in our manicured formal rose garden. In the summer, let the softly rushing sounds of the Bronx river accompany your ceremony. In the fall, the vibrant foliage will set the stage for a wedding filled with color. In the winter, imagine the perfect snowy backdrop, complete with berried holly and stunning pines, for your wedding photography. The New York Botanical Garden sets the stage for a wedding infused with nature and is the quintessential location for a couple who adores the great outdoors and the city alike.
