We held our ceremony and reception at Malaparte and were extremely pleased with the result. The space is beautiful, both indoors and out, and the food was spectacular. Multiple guests contacted us after the fact to tell us how much they loved the food, with those getting the vegetarian option saying it was the best vegetarian meal they had ever had. The Osso Buco was also out of this world.
The staff were professional, and it was very helpful having a responsive point person to go to with questions during the planning stages. We really appreciated having a one stop shop for ceremony and reception, as well as for catering, staff and rentals. Malaparte took care of all of this for us.
One thing we didn't like was that only two meals were covered as part of the tasting. We were trying to decide between a few different meal options and ended up having to pay extra to taste those two additional dishes. In the end it was worth it because it did allow us to decide on our final items, but we strongly felt this should have been included as part of the cost.
One thing we didn't realize when we signed with Malaparte is that we didn't have to ask guests to choose their meals in advance, which was amazing. Guests were able to choose from our pre-selected options on the day of. We thought this made it a much classier affair because guests were presented with menus when they sat down and they could decide based on the meal descriptions rather than just choosing "chicken", "fish" or "beef". It also made the invitations easier, and eliminated the need for table place cards. We thought this was something O&B should highlight moving forward, as we were thrilled to learn this after the fact.
Overall we were extremely pleased with our experience working with Malaparte and would highly recommend them to others who are looking for a really special ceremony/reception location and rave-worthy food.

User1724218 Sent on 07/21/2014We held both the wedding ceremony and the reception at Malaparte (6th floor Tiff Bell Lightbox). The venue was beautiful, the food was exceptional and the service was great! We worked with both Kristen and Nicole who were both a pleasure to work with. They were prompt in their emails and made sure we were well looked after. They were also very quick to help us with any last minute changes. Our guests could not stop talking about how great the venue and food were. Definitely recommend checking out the venue and if you are lucky enough to secure the date, do it!
