    We had our wedding at Sound River Studios and we couldn't have been happier! The venue allowed us to set it up exactly as we wanted and our guests couldn't stop commenting about how beautiful the view was. Una was extremely helpful throughout the process. She was very responsive to our many questions and allowed us to come see the venue quite a few times. During the wedding she and her staff helped make it an amazing day!

  • The perfect venue!

    SRS was the perfect venue for our wedding. Our families were so impressed with the location, the gorgeous views across the river, and the ability to have an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Everyone we worked with was professional and responsive and willing to go the extra mile - especially Una! We had the perfect day and highly recommend!!

    We held our wedding celebration in the fall earlier this year and it was absolutely perfect. We checked out a few other places in the LIC area but the second we saw stepped into SRS and saw the view, we knew we were set. We are grateful for Una as her knowledge and experience helped us plan the most amazing day. Una and her team's attention to detail, resourcefulness and creative flair were beyond exceptional!
