November Rule of Thirds Wedding

I would recommend ROT to anyone interested in having a city wedding!! Our friends were literally like -- are you guys having a wedding? Because we had so little stress planning it. Once we booked, basically everything was taken care of and planning was a breeze. Paige, our coordinator, was incredible and helped us with all of the little things we needed to do and made the day so smooth. Everyone said it was by far the best food and service theyve ever had at a wedding. The bartenders were so on it and professional, there was never a line for a drink. The food was delicious and came out hot even for dinner with 180 people! Everyone also really let us customize the space and use it how we wanted, so we ended up having the perfect night. I really truly couldn't recommend it more!

Wedding of our Dreams

Rule of Thirds was the wedding venue of our absolute dreams! From the very first email to the day of our wedding, the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The staff was incredible, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the exceptional service and phenomenal food. So many of them said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had.



Julie, one of the amazing event managers, made the planning process an absolute breeze. From our first visit to the venue, she and her team were so professional, helpful, and clearly experts at what they do. They took nearly all of the work off our hands, making it possible for us to plan the perfect wedding in just four months. They were with us every step of the way, from organizing a fun and delicious tasting—where we even got to meet the owner, who was so down-to-earth and welcoming—to helping us finalize the flow of events, table and décor layouts, and every tiny detail. The lead-up was seamless, and their communication made us feel so supported and cared for.



The wedding day itself exceeded all expectations. The venue truly shines in the evening with its unique, social, and effortlessly cool Brooklyn vibe. It was the perfect atmosphere for our celebration, and the service was unparalleled. We were blown away by how well-staffed the event was—no one had to wait for drinks, and guests were even able to get seconds at dinner because the food was that good! As the bride and groom, we received such exceptional service that we probably ate more than anyone else (a rare luxury on your wedding day!).



The hospitality of the Rule of Thirds team was unmatched. Julie and Mandy made sure no detail was spared, and they were a joy to work with from start to finish. Honestly, I’m going to miss communicating with them—they are THAT good at what they do and make the process so enjoyable.



To anyone who is engaged and looking for the perfect venue: get married at Rule of Thirds. You will not regret it. They gave us the best wedding we could have ever imagined, with perfect food, perfect service, and an unforgettable atmosphere. Thank you, thank you, thank you for bringing our vision to life in such a short time and giving us a day we will cherish forever!

Rule of Thirds is the best!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Rule of Thirds. We had our wedding there in December and it was flawless. The food is exceptional. The space is stunning. Mandy, Julie and the whole team were responsive and helpful. We had 118 guests and had plenty of space for our ceremony, dinner and dancing. If you want a fun Brooklyn wedding with a cool vibe then this is the spot!!! It was the best day of our lives and we’re so thankful we chose Rule of Thirds!
