Kathryn Sent on 12/02/2023The Absolute BEST Wedding Venue in NYC
Where to begin with Brooklyn Winery!? The space, the staff, the food, the wine -- all of it was beyond our wildest dreams for our wedding. We’ve never worked with a kinder, more accommodating, and lovely group of people. If you’re searching for a wedding venue in NYC, Brooklyn Winery should absolutely be #1 on your list.
The space: A perfect combination of modern and vintage. There are cozy little details everywhere you look, organic greenery throughout the space, clean industrial lines, and the wallpaper in the bathrooms is NEXT LEVEL. There’s a reason people refer to the bathroom as the “selfie station.” The ambiance at our wedding was perfectly warm & cozy thanks to the impeccable decor at Brooklyn Winery. Also, they designed this place with events in mind. There is a flow to the layout that just works. Over six hours we moved 80+ guests from room to room without any confusion or awkward pauses. The consideration that went into this space is evident in every detail; the seamless way everything flows together is simply flawless.
The staff: I don’t think I can fully express our gratitude for the hard work, dedication, accommodation, and positivity that every single person working at Brooklyn Winery exhibited throughout the course of planning and celebrating our wedding. No matter who we interacted with, they had a smile on their face, and went out of their way to help us with whatever we needed.
Julia, our amazing event manager, went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect and exactly what we envisioned. She was extremely responsive, detail oriented, calming, and her years of experience made the entire process stress-free for us. With so many moving pieces that go into planning a wedding, Julia made sure no detail was missed. She truly made the wedding of our dreams a reality.
The food: Wedding food can be hit or miss, but let us tell you, the food at the Brooklyn Winery absolutely blew us away. They had SO many options that we were struggling to choose – this was by far the most difficult aspect of wedding planning. A few members of our family have serious allergies, and the Winery staff went out of their way to accommodate and make sure they were still getting amazing food. No one felt like a burden or an obstacle, and it was such a relief for us to see our most restricted guests chowing down on their meals with gusto. Our final wedding menu was hit after hit after hit, from cocktail hour to dessert. The biggest highlights for us were the devils on horseback, speck toast, fried chicken, and braised short rib. In the four weeks since our wedding we have heard so many compliments specifically about the food – it really exceeded all expectations.
The wine: We couldn’t leave a review about a winery without mentioning the wine. Made directly on site, there was a wine for everyone. Our favorite was the unoaked chardonnay – the best chardonnay around!! And the Winery serves each course with a paired wine, adding another special level to the dining experience. We were thrilled to order private label wine favors for our guests, sending everyone home with a bottle to enjoy later. We were so excited that this was an option because we got to design labels that featured illustrations of our cats – a sweet way to include them in our wedding!
Overall, Brooklyn Winery transformed something as big, chaotic, stressful, and crazy as a wedding into the smoothest possible experience. Their dedication and obvious pride in what they do shines through in every interaction. No detail was overlooked in designing this space and imagining the weddings that would take place in it. The staff at Brooklyn Winery made our wedding absolutely perfect and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you for giving us the best day of our lives!!
Brooklyn Winery's reply:

Ian Sent on 02/07/2019Highllllllyyyyy recommend the Winery!!!!!!
All that’s needed to say about Brooklyn Winery is that it’s perfect. The wedding planning process was so much easier than it would have been anywhere else. The venue and atmosphere was amazing. The food was unbelievable. The staff leading up to and during the wedding was so helpful. Everything about our wedding was perfect and we felt like we didn’t even need to make that many decisions because BW is so good at what they do. We had 155 guests at the wedding and all of them kept complimenting the staff, venue, and food. Can't recommend the Winery enough! -

Brooklyn Winery allowed us to have an unforgettable wedding and we will remember it for the rest of our lives.
I can't express just how grateful we are for the Events Team and Staff that we had at Brooklyn Winery. From accounting to planning to executing our dream wedding, they brought our vision to life. We can't thank them enough for helping us out with all of the logistics. We couldn't have done it without them.
Everything was absolutely perfect. We are so happy with the way it all turned out and we would not change a THING!
And let's not forget the FOOD. The food was absolutely delicious and being the foodies that my husband and I are, that's saying a lot!
The Winery will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will definitely be back time and time again.
Brooklyn Winery's reply:

my now husband and i went on a few venue tours around brooklyn/queens and were feeling so discouraged by the tours/venues we saw that we had started planning an elopement. a co-worker happened to be in town for a wedding at brooklyn winery and was telling me how amazing everything was, so i booked a tour and the rest was history!! the tour absolutely BLEW us away, the venue was EVERYTHING we wanted and MORE, and i knew there was no other venue for us. everything you hear is true - your guests will absolutely RAVE about how amazing your wedding was at brooklyn winery! the industrial yet cozy vibe, the food, the drinks, the staff...it truly creates the most magical and unique guest experience. the best part is that the venue is all inclusive and they do a lot of the hard work for you. you will get assigned a talented event manager (if you're lucky you will get jamara like we did) and they work so hard to ensure that everything goes according to plan. i spilled red wine on my dress as soon as we sat down for dinner, and jamara SAVED THE DAY! she's magic i think...anways, get married at brooklyn winery, you will NOT regret it!! the absolute best day of our lives made possible by this venue and the lovely staff -

It's hard to put into words just how incredible our wedding at Brooklyn Winery was. Out of all the wedding planning decisions we had to make, choosing them for our venue was by far the best. From beginning to end, Nicole alongside our venue coordinator Chelsey made sure the process was seamless, efficient, and easy, corresponding regularly and quickly via email to answer any question that popped into my head. The day of went off without a single issue. The Brooklyn Winery staff were so excellent and efficient when it came to coordinating our other vendors that all we had to do was show up and say "I do." I cannot emphasize enough how stress-free they made an incredibly stressful day.
As for the food -- I will tell you right now I have some of the pickiest relatives when it comes to wedding food, and over a week after I'm still getting calls about the impeccable quality of the food. The passed appetizers were to die for, and everyone appreciated how they were able to try any main they wanted, instead of needing to pick one. We added the french fry bar alongside an ice cream bar and both were stand out hits. Brooklyn Winery also took the time to make sure my husband and I were fed, delivering us every food item from our cocktail hour to our bridal suite, as well as every item on the main menu to our seat at dinner. We can't say how much we appreciated that because the food was incredible and we didn't want to miss out on it! Our guests also loved the wine bottle favors with the labels we were able to customize ourselves. Such a cute and personal touch.
The space itself is nothing short of breathtaking. With all the greenery, rustic wood, and added twinkle lights, Brooklyn Winery has an intimate quality that makes your wedding all the more romantic. Having our band perform in the bar area made it feel even more like a party than your classic wedding, and every room was laid out thoughtfully and beautifully. The variety of options you have when utilizing the space makes your day all the more special and customizable.
Finally, I will finish off by applauding the hard word of the staff. Their consistent attention to detail, and the level of impeccable service was yet another reason why Brooklyn Winery makes for such an incredible venue. The moment your wine glass was empty, a helpful member of staff was ready to top you up. They were sweet, prompt, and ready to handle any request. Chelsey especially was such an excellent venue coordinator, and made our day so unique and special. We will be talking about this wedding for years to come and I will cherish every memory we got to make at the winery! Thank you again and I can't wait to stop by for a glass of red!Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Kristin and Iain,

Many best wishes to you on your new adventure together! We look forward to welcoming you back to the wine bar soon.
Cheers,

Nia Sent on 11/14/2015My husband and I were originally hoping to hold our wedding here, but due to a quickly growing guest list, and our wedding falling during harvest season when BW has to button up guest counts a little more, we just couldn't make it happen.
So, when we were planning our rehearsal dinner, we knew this was the place! From top to bottom everything was amazing. Kara and team did a spot on job with answering all my emails quickly, and the night ran so smoothly for us and our 25 guests.
The parlour room looked so beautiful, I actually cried when we walked in (yep, I'm that bride). And dare I say it, the food was better than at our wedding! Just so amazingly divine.
The waitstaff was attentive and accomodating and the room felt so cozy and inviting. It was a perfect evening and I would absolutely book them again for another small party or gathering. Thank you BW and team!!!

N/A Sent on 10/20/2018The perfect venue for a fun wedding
We chose Brooklyn Winery as our venue because such beautiful space that it needed little in the way of decor and their event staff provided the best service from day one. They were always so responsive to every little question along our planning process - even if our main contact was out that day, someone else would get back to us. When we dropped in for an unplanned visit with our parents, the bar manager gave them a tour and extra dessert on the house! Exceptional service.
On our wedding day, everything was perfect - from decor that we had them setup to the flowers that they had put on top of our wedding cake for us! Our guests still rave about how delicious the food was and how much they loved the space. We were there during harvest season so it wasn't a formal sit-down meal but everyone was well fed and there was plenty of seating for those who wanted to sit.
Our event planner, Natalia, made us a plate of food and even grabbed drinks for us while we were busy chatting. She was always there making sure everything was going smoothly. We can't thank them enough! Highly recommend this beautiful venue :) -

Than Sent on 07/01/2024You should get married at Brooklyn Winery
Brooklyn Winery is the kind of place you walk into and then side-eye your fiancé with the nod that says, "I think this is the place."
Plus, the value of the on-site coordinators is immeasurable. From handling day-of setup to wrangling vendors along the way, Jamara and the team handling every inquiry and pre-wedding anxiety with aplomb.
Our guests raved about the venue and the invisible, seamless flow between ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and dance. The night felt like the best kind of blissful blur as we said our vows in front of the green wall, shared drinks and amazing bites with our guests, then sat down to a fantastic dinner and even better dance party.
Truthfully, it's hard to single out even a handful of things that were highlights, because the whole dang thing was a highlight.Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hi Than & Sam,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us and for trusting us with such an important day. We absolutely loved hosting you and your loved ones. The photos were gorgeous, especially the one with those amazing fairy wings.
Please come and visit us soon and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!
Cheers,
