Gotham hall - a dramatic venue . They did not disappoint. Everything was great.

Amazing wedding venue!

We hosted our wedding at Gotham Hall and couldn’t have dreamed of a better venue! On top of being a stunning venue, the food and drinks are excellent and they provide a huge variety of options to choose from so that you can really design a menu that fits your event. From start to finish the team at Gotham Hall was responsive, professional, organized, and easy to work with. They made the process seamless for us from the moment we walked in! We worked closely with Stephanie who was absolutely amazing and went out of her way to make sure every detail was perfect. We are so happy we went with Gotham Hall for our big day!

Wedding of our dreams

Every single aspect about getting married at Gotham Hall was perfect. The space is absolutely breathtaking. The high ceiling, immaculately preserved interior, and oval room shape were ideal for our wedding. I was astounded the moment I walked in and felt the same every time I returned to the venue.

The Gotham Hall team was incredible to work with. Allan, Robert, and the rest of the team are some of the most experienced people in the business. It was a joy spending the year planning with the team. They are knowledgeable, patient, responsive, and trustworthy. They went above and beyond - helping us find the right vendors, being flexible with menu choices, and navigating the logistics around COVID. I could not have asked for a better team.

The food at Gotham Hall is INCREDIBLE. We were blown away at our tasting and our wedding guests are still talking about how delicious the food is.

Lastly, the staff was excellent on the day of the wedding. The whole day moved like clockwork!

We had the wedding of our dreams at Gotham Hall and we can't recommend the venue enough!

A historic Manhattan gem!

From the moment we walked into Gotham Hall for the first time, we knew this was the ideal venue for our wedding reception. The grandeur of Gotham is absolutely breathtaking. The impressive architecture is not the only outstanding attribute though. Gotham excels at hospitality – on all fronts. Gotham may be more well known as a corporate venue than a wedding one, but this unique distinction is what makes Gotham both a hidden gem and creative place for a Manhattan wedding that will ‘wow’ your guests. Every single detail, major or minor, was executed perfectly on our wedding day, and exceeded our high expectations. The food operation is world class, and a tribute to the extensive experience of their highly talented executive chef team. The cocktail hour overlooking the ballroom is quite special and provides an enticing backdrop for guests. We had many guests remark to us after the wedding that they had not been to Gotham before and were blown away by the venue. We cannot speak highly enough about the place itself, and most importantly, the talented staff - Stephanie, Robert, Alan, Tyrany, and the entire support team who spent a great deal of time and attention to detail on our wedding. Their white glove service made everything surrounding our wedding day easy and enjoyable - the way it should be!

Dream Wedding!

Our wedding at Gotham Hall was beyond our wildest dreams!

The venue itself is spectacularly majestic with its sublime architecture, elegant interior design, and jaw dropping dome ceiling. The food, drinks, and service were outstanding from start to finish!

The staff was the epitome of professionalism and delightful to work with along the entire journey from planning to even days after the event itself. Stephanie Black, Robert Fortunato, and Pejy Kash, in particular, managed our entire event flawlessly and were exceptionally talented and wonderful to work with.

We had several dietary restrictions, requests for items not on the menu, and additional needs for help for some of our older guests and the team at Gotham Hall was quick to come up with solutions to make our wedding perfect! Weddings can be chaotic, and the Gotham Hall staff was attending to our every need throughout the whole night, making sure were calm prior to the ceremony and ensuring we were having a wonderful time at the reception. This team really knows what they're doing and coordinated with each other and all of our vendors flawlessly!

It’s been over a month since our wedding and our guests cannot stop talking about the beauty of the venue, the quality of food and beverages, the top-notch service and attentive staff. Adjectives such as “BREATHTAKING”, “SPECTACULAR”, “OUTSTANDING”, “DELECTABLE” continue to pour in. Several guests commented that it was the best wedding they had been to in their entire lives (and 3 of them were over 75 years old)! Having a wedding at Gotham Hall is truly a one of a kind magical experience and worth every penny!

Venue is stunning - even all by itself. Food is AMAZING. Allan Kurtz and his entire team are absolute pros. Our wedding was PERFECT. Not one thing went wrong. Allan, the staff, the waiters, down to your personal assistant you get for the day allow you to truly relax and trust that everything is under control. We had the wedding of our dreams at Gotham Hall. Side note - it was extremely hot the day we got married and Gotham Hall's AC works wonders. Everyone was extremely comfortable walking in from the steambath that was NYC the day of our wedding. Lastly, all of our vendors were so happy that we were getting married at Gotham Hall, as well. Vendors in the wedding business know how well run Gotham Hall is, which makes their jobs even easier!

The whole staff at Gotham Hall was fabulous, but Allen Kurtz bears special mention. He was absolutely spectacular to work with and became a confidante and valued member of our wedding planning team.
