501 Union

AND BOOK 501 UNION RIGHT NOW!!!

501 Union was the perfect venue for our wedding. We absolutely fell in love with the space; it's beautiful even without any decorations. The package was comprehensive and way better than a lot of other venues we looked at. The value you get for this space is amazing. From the moment we first reached out, the team's communication was prompt, enthusiastic, and warm. Our venue coordinator changed during the process but the transition to our new coordinator was completely smooth and nothing was lost. Andrea and the staff were so on top of everything; they went above and beyond to ensure the space was gorgeous, clean, and perfectly set up. We were blown away by the space the day of and how accommodating the team was with all of our requests. They seriously could not have made the space any more inviting and welcoming. We are SO grateful to 501 Union for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed of. Thank you!!!!!

501 Union is an incredible wedding venue! We got married there in January 2025 and had an all around wonderful experience. Starting with the open house events they host (which we would highly recommend as they partner with great vendors who you may end up wanting to hire for your own event) all the way to the wedding day, the team at 501 Union supported us through every step of the journey! They were very accommodating and worked in partnership with us to create the wedding of our dreams within a budget we could manage. Our vision was one of simple elegance and the space at 501 Union helped us achieve just that, with the modern and classic design embellished with gold accents and large spaces. We would also highly recommend working with 501 Union’s in house event planning team, STARLING NYC (see review on Google). Overall, we highly recommend hosting your wedding or next big event at 501 Union! We truly felt that it was a hidden gem right in the middle of an easily accessible and vibrant neighborhood in Brooklyn!

When we got engaged, we instantly knew 501 Union was where we wanted to host our big day. Andrea was an extremely communicative point of contact for any questions we had before booking. The process of touring the space was smooth and left us reassured this venue was everything we wanted. The day of the wedding came and went extremely smoothly with no hiccups. As a wedding vendor myself, I hear horror stories about venues having lots of hidden fees or stress after booking, and there were no surprises or stressors the entire time. Trust your big day at 501 Union- you will be SO thankful you did!

501 Union was the perfect choice for us! The space is beautiful on its own and is a great canvas for adding your personal touches. We loved that there were different spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception on site, making it super easy for us and our guests. Andrea and the staff at 501 Union were great to work with! It was so easy to schedule a tour when we were looking at venues and they gave us so much helpful information that made the choice an easy one. As the planning went on, Andrea was helpful in answering questions as they came up and working with us to ensure the day was perfect! Definitely recommend!

My husband and I got married at 501 Union almost 2 weeks ago. Choosing 501 Union as our wedding venue was hands down one the best decisions we made. From the moment we walked into space during an open house nearly 2 years ago we knew immediately we had found the perfect wedding venue. The space itself is absolutely stunning and perfect for the moody and romantic vibe we were aiming for. Not to mention that the staff was phenomenal from the very beginning. Andrea Clinton was our event manager, and she worked with us and supported us every step of the way from the moment we booked the venue to the day of the wedding. Her hospitality is unmatched. From countless emails, many open house visits, and virtual meetings Andrea was there making sure we had everything we needed. Dave Renaud also worked as our operations manager during the wedding and he made day of set up and breakdown seamless. Dave was there every step of the way to serve as a second point of contact and was always present during open houses to work through logistics with us. Overall the venue exceded our expectations. For anyone looking a unique and beautiful NYC venue with great staff, this is the place for you!

501 Union provided us with a memorable, elegant venue to host our wedding in the city we love.

In addition to being conveniently accessible for us as Prospect Heights locals and our New York-based friends and family, 501 Union also provided our out-of-town visitors with the perfect taste of Brooklyn cool. We hoped to show our guests the world-class aesthetics and attention to detail that New York City is known for, while also throwing the kind of bangers-only dance party we fell in love with at popular clubs and intimate house parties in the early days of our relationship.

The dark-wood and brass-fixtures look of the venue reassured us that it would feel elegant and classic. But the eclectic and eye-catching wallpapers added a delicate, subtly classy eccentricity that really made the pasty feel unique. For example, the green-and-silver leaf pattern in the cocktail lounge made a great background for pictures and the silver textured waves in the main room came alive with flashes of light and colored reflections when we turned down the lights for dancing!

We also found many of our vendors through 501 Union’s recommended vendors list and were largely satisfied with the recommendations made and the standards to which 501 holds those vendors it recommends as partners. It greatly reassured us to have a team of disparate vendors who nevertheless knew each other and how to work within the given space.

The staff at 501 Union were super helpful throughout the process as well. From their hardworking bartenders amazing hustle during the actual wedding, to our venue contact Abby’s prompt and consistent responses throughout the process. Occasionally another vendor would miss a meeting or drop a ball, but Abby was consistently pitch-perfect professional the entire time we worked together, which provided us with a much-needed sense of stability throughout the process.

501 Union came as a top recommendation from professional wedding photographer and good friend Adam Ciccarino, and we are so glad we took him up on this. 501 Union was nothing short of incredible from start to finish when it came to planning our dream wedding. In particular, Andrea Clinton was always responsive when it came to emails, always had a quick and efficient solution for any issues that came up (which, honestly, none really did, which says so much about their organization and professionalism), and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Even almost 2 weeks later, our guests are still telling us how absolutely beautiful the venue looked on our big day, and how polite, nice and accommodating the staff were. I highly recommend 501 Union, you definitely won't regret it.

Our daughter's wedding was at 501 Union. Beautiful space, great staff, all around gorgeous.

Absolutely loved this venue. This was the first venue we toured and we knew that we had to book it. They were kind and accommodating from start to finish. They were the perfect space for our food truck wedding with around 110 guests. The staff were professional and helped the day go seamlessly. Would 100% book again!

This team is truly incredible to work with. Abby was amazing to work with start to finish and we were always extremely well taken care of. Things ran so smoothly day of. Cannot thank the team enough and their recommendations for vendors is truly fabulous. Would recommend 501 to anyone!
