The versatile and spacious building is located in Albany's vibrant Warehouse District, welcoming couples and their loved ones to a one-of-a-kind industrial chic setting. The property is under a 32-foot-tall pink rose painted by the business' founder's father, making it easily recognizable and locatable for all-comers.

History

Nine Pin Cider was founded in 2012 by founder Alejandro de Peral, supported by his mother Sonya, making it a real family affair. Using The Big Apple State's apples to make tasty and refreshing ciders, using fresh, local ingredients, Nine Pin Cider set up shop at the current address in Albany's manufacturing sector. The aforementioned 32-foot-tall rose that overlooks the venue was painted over 15 years ago by Alejandro's father and shines like a welcoming beacon. Bite into the Big Apple and celebrate your big day at this apple-loving property.

Industrial meets Luxury

When we told people we were getting married at Nine Pin they raised an eyebrow. Not because Nine Pin didn’t offer some of the tastiest cider in the area, or host some of the most well known events like Music Blingo, but because they’ve never heard of Nine Pin being a wedding venue. They weren’t wrong to assume this because we were in fact Nine Pins very first wedding!
Let us be the first to say, if we didn’t know any differently we would have thought Nine Pin had been hosting weddings for years. Jessica-event planner, made the planning process simple and easy. Jessica has impeccable tastes along with attention to detail and an eye for design. She was flexible organized and had a solution for every small bump that came up during the planning process. Jessica’s staff-wedding team, was professional courteous hardworking and truly went above and beyond in making sure our guests with allergies received their specialty meals as well as making sure every water glass stay filled and all the surfaces kept tidy by clearing used glasses and dishes. The bartenders were efficient in serving each guest in a timely manner as well as crafting some of the best cocktails our guests ever had. Everything went off without a hitch!
The real stunner was seeing Nine Pins funky artsy warehouse transformed into a luxury space all while maintaining its signature green and its Nine Pin Monster. The space flowed beautifully from room to room offering ample space for guests to spread out, and offered guests who don’t dance options for sitting out front around the fire pit. We had a sunny 72 degree day allowing us to keep Nine Pins garage doors open providing that outdoor element with open air feel. Our guests were truly impressed and have not stopped talking about the space as well as the food drink and staff. We don’t believe we could have picked a better space with a better team of people. We would get married at Nine Pin a hundred times over if we could. Do yourselves a favor and reach out to Nine Pin today! You won’t regret it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
