Bryant Park Grill was the PERFECT place to host our wedding reception. From admin to the waiters at the reception, the staff is the most professional, buttoned-up, classic New York group who executed everything to perfection on our wedding day. Linda was so fun to do business with and throughout the entire process, she was incredibly confident in BPG's abilities and experienced with hundreds of weddings. On the day of, Diane was our captain and she anticipated every single one of our wants or needs throughout the evening. If you also have your ceremony here, you truly will not need a wedding coordinator. PLUS I was shocked at how reasonable the package pricing was compared to other iconic NYC venues. Bonus points for having the NY Public Library next door for truly breathtaking photos. 100 out of 10!

This past August, my daughter Sheraden chose to get married in the vibrant city of New York. For us, it was a destination wedding, as we live just outside another great city, Toronto, Canada. After visiting several venues, we decided on Bryant Park Grill—a special place for our family, as it was a memorable stop during our first trip to NYC when Sheraden was just 11 years old. Clearly, the city left a lasting impression, as it has become a favorite destination for her over the years.

Planning a wedding from a distance is no small feat, especially for us, as we have a background in event decorating and are typically very hands-on. From our very first meeting with Kristi Ohlin, the Catering Sales Manager, we knew we were in good hands. The team at Bryant Park Grill has an incredible depth of experience in hosting events, which became evident throughout the entire process.

To say they are experienced is an understatement. Kristi and her team kept us on track from start to finish and recommended outstanding vendors, many of whom we chose to work with. While we brought our own creative touches—including some sizable props—we entrusted the team at Bryant Park Grill to execute our vision seamlessly.

Coordinating wedding décor and logistics in a bustling city like New York is no easy task, but Kristi and her colleague, Diane Giovannone, went above and beyond to ensure everything came together perfectly. Their ability to understand and bring our ideas to life, even without our direct involvement on the day, was nothing short of extraordinary.

The result? A wedding that exceeded our expectations in every way. The venue’s attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to creating a flawless experience made for a truly magical day. Bryant Park Grill is a 5-star, white-glove service establishment that operates like a well-oiled machine.

And the food—oh, the food! It was exceptional, surpassing our high expectations and delighting all of our guests.

We cannot thank Kristi, Diane, and the entire Bryant Park Grill team enough for making our daughter’s wedding the most epic and memorable event of our lives. Many of our family and friends remarked that it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended.

With heartfelt appreciation and love,
Tanja & Dean Link, Angie & Beni Colalillo, and the Bride & Groom, Sheraden & Alessio
