About this venue

For nearly a century, Faculty House has provided an elegant space for weddings, banquets and social events of all scales. Now, as the first event venue in New York to be LEED Gold certified, we continue to provide a unique option for events in the city - all while taking steps to maximize sustainability. Experience the warm welcome of our gracious and skilled staff, our exquisite cuisine, and ivy league charm that have been a Faculty House hallmark since 1923. From the ceremony to the reception, our team of seasoned event professionals is here to guide you through every step of the planning process. Recently restored, Saint Paul's Chapel is a non-denominational ceremony space situated just steps from our front door. This architectural gem is one of the University's historic venues. For couples who prefer a more modern setting, Faculty House is also available for ceremonies. Both locations offer a seamless transition from ceremony to reception.
