FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About New York City Wedding Venues
Quick answers to common questions couples ask when comparing wedding venues in New York City.
How much does a New York City wedding venue cost?
Venue-only rentals start around $2,000–$7,500 at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and the Prospect Park Boathouse and run $11,000–$25,000 for lofts and townhouses like 632 on Hudson, The Foundry, and The Altman Building, with catering on top. All-inclusive packages usually run $275–$575 per person, and the landmark hotels set food-and-drink minimums from $60,000 at the Lotte New York Palace to $137,500 at The Plaza on peak dates. Expect a 20–25% admin or service charge plus 8.875% NYC sales tax on most quotes.
When is the best time to get married in New York City?
May, June, September, and October are peak season, and venues price them that way. Winter is the value season: The Foundry's Saturday rental drops from $22,000 to $16,000 in January–March, The Liberty Warehouse falls to $225–$295 per person, and the Wythe Hotel's Saturday minimum drops from $52,000 to $36,000 from December to March. Fridays and Sundays are cheaper almost everywhere.
Can we have the ceremony at the same venue?
At most venues, yes — the Rainbow Room offers Bar SixtyFive, the New York Public Library uses Astor Hall, Weylin holds ceremonies under its Oculus Dome, and the hotels charge a ceremony fee of about $1,500–$7,500. The big exception is the museums: neither The Metropolitan Museum of Art nor the American Museum of Natural History hosts ceremonies onsite, so plan the ceremony elsewhere.
Can we bring our own caterer?
It depends on the venue. Raw spaces like the New York Public Library and The Altman Building are rented empty, so you bring in catering, rentals, and staffing (The Altman Building's preferred caterer is Thomas Preti Events). The Foundry requires a caterer from its approved list, Wave Hill works exclusively with Great Performances, and The Liberty Warehouse allows outside catering only from approved kosher and Indian caterers. The hotels and full-service venues cater in-house.
Which part of New York City should we choose?
Midtown and Fifth Avenue have the classic landmarks — The Plaza, the Rainbow Room, the New York Public Library, and The St. Regis. Downtown has skyline views at Manhatta and Tribeca Rooftop and old-New-York character at The Beekman and The Bowery Hotel. Brooklyn has Williamsburg's Wythe Hotel and Weylin, Red Hook's Liberty Warehouse, and the Prospect Park Boathouse. The Foundry in Queens and Wave Hill in the Bronx offer gardens and courtyards with more space for the money.
Is there a curfew for New York City weddings?
Often, yes. The New York Public Library runs events from 7 PM to midnight, with an extension to 1 AM for $10,000. The Foundry has a midnight curfew with overtime at $1,000 per hour, and the Metropolitan Club ends events by 1 AM. Most packages cover a 5- or 6-hour event, with overtime priced by the hour or per guest.
How many guests can New York City wedding venues hold?
Most venues comfortably host 120–300. For very large weddings, The Glasshouse holds up to 700, The Metropolitan Museum of Art seats 550 for dinner in the Temple of Dendur, the New-York Historical holds 450 for a reception, and The Liberty Warehouse seats 350. Intimate options include 632 on Hudson's 34-guest Speakeasy, the Wythe Hotel's 60-guest Penthouse Loft, and The Beekman, which hosts ceremonies and receptions for up to 90.
Do we need a wedding planner?
At the cultural landmarks, yes. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, and the New York Public Library all require a professional wedding planner, and Wave Hill requires a fully insured planner at least 90 days before the event. Full-service hotels and venues like the Rainbow Room include a wedding concierge or event manager.
