Even Better Than A Dream

From the moment we set foot in The Skylark, we knew we had found the perfect place for our special day. We wanted to focus on having a big party to celebrate our love. Our experience at this remarkable venue surpassed all expectations and created memories that will last a lifetime.

The staff at The Skylark were nothing short of exceptional. From the very first inquiry to the final farewell, they demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism, warmth, and attentiveness that made us feel like royalty. Their expertise and experience were evident as they seamlessly guided us through the entire planning process, taking into account every detail and ensuring that our vision became a reality. Laura was a godsend and extremely responsive. Peter, our day of coordinator, was simply exceptional. He had everything organized and I did not even worry about a thing (as it should be!).

We are still getting rave reviews about the entire venue and especially the amazing food and drinks. We chose a cocktail reception and while initially we were worried it would be confusing or awkward for our guests who are used to super-traditional receptions; it was not! It was perfect, everyone loved it and there was a TON of food. I had to turn food away!

I cannot say enough about how amazing everything was. If you are searching for a place that will leave you and your guests in awe, and memories that will be cherished forever, look no further than The Skylark. Trust us, your special day will be nothing short of magical.

The most amazing wedding I could have imagined

We had a smaller wedding of about 50 people in June 2022. The Skylark was so unbelievably perfect for our wedding; the space is gorgeous - sexy upscale lounge vibes and the food from Abigail Kirsch was absolutely delicious. All of our guests were raving about it! The rooftop for cocktail hour is so gorgeous, nobody can get enough of those Empire State Building views. Working with Peter & Laura was a dream as well - very easy to work with to make your vision come alive. Peter was so present throughout the entire event and all the weeks leading up to it and I'm so thankful we had him throughout the process. They also take care of everything you need including the wedding cake. We very comfortably had 50 guests with 6 round tables and a sweetheart, it was perfection!! Thank you so much Skylark Team!

There is not enough I can say about this place and the staff and the management that will actually portray how AMAZING everything was. Charles Lopez was our event manager and he went the extra mile to make sure that everything was just the way we wanted it, even being so patient with me the weeks prior when my emails started getting more and more frantic, yet he would always assure me that everything was going to be perfect...and it was! The view from The Skylark is absolutely THE BEST view you can get on Manhattan. The Empire State building seems like it's within arms reach, and it was lit up rainbow for our gay wedding on June 28! Abigail Kirsch and the food were OUTSTANDING, and the SERVICE by the waitstaff is what people are still talking about today. It was like we were at a fine dining restaurant, not a large wedding. Details, details!!! and they took care that every single little detail was thoroughly executed with flawless panache. My husband and I and our families were taken care of in the "bridal suite" while our guests arrived. They had sodas, and waters and champagne and wine cheese plates and veggies for us to munch on as well as our personal waiter to take care of things we needed before everything started. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS VENUE!!!! Please feel free to contact me with questions!
