About Us

Located just minutes from Manhattan, our Long Island City, Queens venue has established a stellar reputation in New York City for being the destination venue for sophisticated weddings and events of all kinds.

Our 14,000 square foot catering venue features a full-service kitchen providing distinctive and delectable catering options for cocktail, buffet and plated dinners.  Guests are greeted in the lobby bar, which has renaissance elegance punctuated by a baby grand piano. The room flows to a gracefully curved staircase. Marble steps descend to reveal the neoclassic decor of the main reception hall and 100-year-old reclaimed hardwood dance floor.

Our facility is large enough to accommodate up to 250 guests for a ceremony, cocktail reception and sit down dinner with dancing. We have the capacity for 450 guests for a cocktail event, up to 600 guests for concert style and filming, photo shoots and fashion shows. Wedding Ceremonies and receptions including those that are same-sex and/or of different faiths and traditions are held in the outdoor garden space or in the spectacular high ceiling reception room.
