Kathryn F. 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:
Hi Kathryn & Brandon,
Thank you for your thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you from the beginning and we are beyond thrilled that your day was everything you had hoped!
We are happy that Stan & Chester attended the wedding in spirit and that we loved the wooden bookmarks added to the wine bottle favors.
Please come and visit us soon and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!
Cheers,
Brooklyn Winery Team

Amazing Experience!
I am so glad we decided to get married at Brooklyn Winery. Not only is the space absolutely stunning, but the food is amazing. Our guests raved about several of the dishes and everyone enjoyed the wide selection of cocktails and wines. Most of all, the staff here is absolutely amazing. Jamara, our event manager made the experience as stress-free as possible and she was so on top of even the smallest detail that it made my husband and I feel at ease the entire time. Jamara responded to every question in every email in a timely manner and she helped bring our vision for the day to life. We were able to use several decor pieces from the venue including a large easel and gift box which was convenient since it meant fewer items for us to pack and bring the day of. The food and wine tasting was also an incredible experience; they truly make it feel like a date night and the staff were so welcoming and fun. Overall, we had an amazing experience from beginning to end. -

Caity M. Sent on 02/16/2024Can't recommend highly enough!
We had our wedding at Brooklyn winery in January of 2024 and couldn’t be happier with our choice of venue. From the beginning, the team was helpful, informative, and responsive. We loved their excitement about our marriage and our wedding, and as a queer couple, we especially welcomed - and planning documents reflected their inclusivity. Every stage of the planning process was seamless — from initial virtual venue tours on zoom because they hadn’t opened their new location yet, to periodic visits to the winery when everyone was excited to greet us and tell us about the amazing wine, to the incredible and so thoughtfully-carried-out tasting, to the lead up to the event itself and the final wedding. The wine and food are excellent — our guests are still raving about it. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and it was awesome to be starting with an already-beautiful space. (See attached photos, taken by Natura Collective!) Everyone we interacted with during each of our visits to the winery and the restaurant was professional, helpful, and also so happy for us — which made such a difference in keeping things exciting rather than stressful!
We worked with Julia as our event coordinator and we can’t say enough wonderful things about her. Her attention to detail, thoroughness, excitement about our vision for the wedding, and ability to think (and then subsequently take care) of so many logistical details that never even occurred to us were truly remarkable. We felt completely taken care of throughout the planning process. The night of the wedding itself she continued to go above and beyond, accommodating special requests, making our vision for the night come to fruition, and thinking of details small and large that made the entire thing run seamlessly. In short, we felt so lucky to have her on our team and she helped make our wedding absolutely perfect. Anyone who gets to work with her is truly lucky!
Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hi Caity & Michelle,
Thank you for your thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you all from the beginning and we are beyond thrilled that your day was everything you had hoped!
Those photos are absolutely gorgeous and you two look stunning.
Please come and visit us soon at the Wine Bar and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!
Cheers,
Brooklyn Winery Team

Choosing Brooklyn Winery as the venue for our December wedding was the best decision we could have possibly made! The staff (specifically our PHENOMENAL event coordinator, Julia!) went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect, from the ambiance of the winery to the enjoyment of our guests to the impeccable service provided throughout the entire event. Our guests were blown away by the exquisite wine selection and delicious catering options, all of which perfectly complemented the romantic setting. If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable venue for your wedding, look no further than Brooklyn Winery. Thank you for helping to make our day absolutely magical!Brooklyn Winery's reply:

Caroline M. Sent on 11/05/2023A competent, compassionate team - and an unforgettable night
We had our wedding at Brooklyn Winery in October 2023, and we could not have asked for a team who boasted more expertise or demonstrated more attentiveness and care throughout the process. We were floored by how wonderfully considered every single detail of the night was — from how artfully the staff arranged our decorations, to the team members who kept checking in to see if we were taken care of, to the beautifully arranged radishes and figs in the newlywed suite that fortified us before the party began. Brooklyn Winery created an absolutely BEAUTIFUL evening for us, and we wholeheartedly recommend their team to anyone looking for a wedding event filled with wonder and ease. We remain in awe at their competence and compassion!Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hi Caroline & Mike,
We are beyond thrilled to hear that your wedding day was everything you had hoped for and more! Everyone looked like they were having an amazing time celebrating you two. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us!
Please come and visit us soon and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!

Courtney S. Sent on 11/15/2023Dream Day!
Where do I even begin - our wedding at Brooklyn Winery was absolutely a dream come true. From the very first meeting we had as prospective guests to the final walkthrough the entire staff at Brooklyn Winery made us feel important, well taken care of, and at ease - they handled absolutely everything; I especially want to thank Julia Freet, our event manager, who spared no detail in bringing our vision to life, coordinated with our vendors to ensure the day ran seamlessly and was generally just an awesome person to work with. Multiple people who attended our wedding said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. The food was delicious with options for everyone and the staff was very mindful of food allergies and dietary restrictions. The bridal suite was perfect for our group to hang out and use before the ceremony and the snacks and drinks definitely helped ease the pre wedding jitters. Highly recommend the private label wine favors, they were the cherry on top of the most perfect day and such a unique gift for people to take home. Thank you Brooklyn Winery for everything, we love you!Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hi Courtney & Travis,
It was such an honor hosting you and your loved ones last month. Thank you for trusting us with such an important occasion and for sharing your experience and those amazing photos. We truly enjoyed working with you!
Please come and visit us soon at Rosette and all the best wishes!
Cheer,

Rohan A. Sent on 10/16/2023Dream wedding at Brooklyn Winery
We had dreamed about having our wedding here for years before we got married. It ended up being the perfect place for us! The venue is absolutely stunning and has a beautiful modern, rustic vibe so it feels both swanky and cozy/intimate. The catering, bar, furniture, seating, etc is all included in the venue which made planning so much easier for us. The preferred vendors they have listed are all the best as well which made research and planning so much easier.
The staff is incredibly professional and gave us a lot of help and recommendations for what we should/shouldn't do on the day to make things go smoothly and so that we have the best memories.
Also the food and drinks were 10/10. I cannot say enough how amazing the food was. All of our friends and family still are raving to us about their dinners and drinks. It was incredible. They also accommodated everyone's dietary and allergy restrictions, even when it was last minute which was so appreciated.
Also the bridal suite was so great. They had a bunch of food and drinks for us before guests arrived and it helped get rid of the nerves :)Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hi Lauren & Rohan - 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. Please come and visit us soon and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!
Cheers,

Alice M. Sent on 05/31/2023Absolutely Perfect Night at the Perfect Venue
I cannot fully express how amazing our experience was with Brooklyn Winery! From the very first contact we had with the BW team they were consistently affable, helpful, efficient, and professional. Every. single. member. of the team was beyond fantastic! We do have to especially highlight Nicole, Douglas, and our Event Manager, Julia, though. Nicole made sure every detail in the initial planning stages was perfect and warmly and clearly communicated. Douglas was the first person we met during our initial visit to the Winery and the last person we saw when we picked up our final items following the reception, and he is just joy personified. And Julia? Flawless. We did not have a single worry about our "Big Day" knowing that Julia was there handling it all with her attention to detail, kindness and good humor.
It was a little nerve-wracking that they would be opening/moving to a new space between when we booked the venue and when our reception was held, but there was really no reason for concern as the new space perfectly reflected the virtual walkthrough and was beautiful, cozy yet not-at-all cramped, and perfectly arranged for the flow of the event. It has the ease of a full-service/banquet-style venue without the cookie-cutter feel of one. We really appreciated the decor that was provided and thought the candles and mismatched china were lovely. The drinks and food were easy to access (no waits and no lines) and delicious (not just for wedding food, but legitimately great!)
They made the whole process beautiful, easy, and fun. I am so, so grateful that we were able to have this experience with them and would recommend Brooklyn Winery a million times over.Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Alice and Tracy,
We are beyond thrilled to hear that your wedding day was everything that you had hoped for and more! Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I love those photos you posted! The cake cutting is so fun and of course, the wine barrels are a perfect backdrop for a perfect couple.
We look forward to your next visit to Brooklyn and wish you all the best on this next chapter together!
Cheers,

Talia N. Sent on 05/20/2023Seamless, wonderful experience
We got married at Brooklyn Winery's new location at the end of April and had an absolutely incredible experience working with them every step of the way. Wedding planning is so stressful with so many moving pieces, but they have so many good systems in place to make things as easy as possible for you. Some things that are key to this are having a dedicated venue staff who know the venue and how things run there inside and out, having all of the catering, furniture, cutlery etc. handled onsite, and having an on-site Event Manager/day-of coordinator. Our Event Manager was Marissa Allain and I cannot speak highly enough of her - while remaining warm and composed, she thought of and handled every little detail throughout the process. While we know that an incredible amount of work went into things behind the scenes, for us and our guests on the day, everything flowed so easily and seamlessly. Having a dedicated person to coordinate with the DJ, florist, etc. so you don't even have to think about those logistics is an enormous benefit - it took more pressure off of us than we even realized going into it. Everyone (including the two of us) had an incredible time on the day and also just really felt taken care of. There were so many thoughtful details every step of the way on the day. For example, when we did our ketubah signing, they had set up a lovely table with candles to create a nice atmosphere and make that moment even more special. Knowing that you'll be pulled in a million different directions on that day, Brooklyn Winery really makes sure to think about all the ways they can ease some of that pressure and make the day as stress-free and enjoyable for you as possible. The food and drinks were incredible - so many people commented on them and we were really pleased. They were also very flexible and worked with us to have an all vegetarian menu since my husband is a vegetarian. The new space is absolutely stunning (I'm including some photos - thank you to L&L Style Photo!) and since it's largely the same team as the old space, they clearly got things up and running super smoothly; you'd think they'd been working in that location for years. Getting married in the city can be a stressful and expensive process, and I really want to emphasize how much value you get at Brooklyn Winery. We really can't recommend them highly enough.Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Talia and Josh,
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.
Your photos look so beautiful! I particularly love the photo of your first dance - such a sweet image. Your guests look like they're having a blast on the dance floor!
Please come and visit us soon and all the best wishes on your happily ever after!
Cheers,

Alexandra W. Sent on 04/29/2023The dreamiest wedding venue!
My fiance and I recently got married (March 2023) and we cannot rave enough about how wonderful Brooklyn Winery is as a venue. The entire staff was so easy to work with from our first email interaction to signing our contracts and executing our actual wedding. We reached out while they were in the process of building out their new venue and they were so informative of the renovation process, the timing and did a great job of sharing all the renderings so we felt comfortable in signing with them. As we approached our 6 month mark, they connected us to our event manager and got us scheduled for our wedding tasting. The tasting was such a beautiful event and it was so great to meet with our event Manager, Julia during that tasting. Julia was PHENOMENAL. She was very responsive and sent us timeline templates to help us stay organized as we approached our big day. She also coordinated with all our vendors! She helped us flawlessly execute the dreamiest wedding. We loved Brooklyn Winery and wish we could re-live our wedding over and over again.
Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Alex and Cyrus,
Thank you for your thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and we are beyond thrilled that your day was everything you had hoped!
I loved your choice of add-ons to your cocktail hour. You selected a tasty menu!
Many best wishes to you on your new adventure together! We look forward to seeing you at the restaurant soon.

Best Wedding Ever!!
Our wedding was 3 weeks ago, and our guests are still talking about it! Everyone (teenagers, friends, parents) have said over and over again how it was the best wedding they've been to.
We were actually the first wedding at their new location, and Brooklyn Winery pulled it off flawlessly. If anything went wrong or was missing, we had no idea. Even our vendors were impressed at how perfectly it went.
Brooklyn Winery's service is exemplary. Everyone was so kind, helpful, and informative. Our guests can't stop talking about the food(!!!) and how wonderful the service is. Nicole and Marissa were wonderful to work with, and were so patient with my husband and our wedding planner and their numerous questions. Julia, one of their staff members, had actually sold me my wedding dress before she started working at Brooklyn Winery. She was so kind when I asked for help with my dress, I'll never forget it.
Wedding planning can be so stressful, but Brooklyn Winery really went a long way in reducing the stress. I'm hoping we'll be invited to a wedding there so I can experience it as a guest.Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Leica and Adrian,
Thank you for your thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you from the beginning and we are beyond thrilled that your day was everything you had hoped!
You are our super VICs as our first wedding couple in our brand new space! We could not have wished for a better couple to start off our new set of memories in this location.
We truly hope to welcome you back as wedding guests sometime!
Cheers,

A truly gorgeous venue, delicious food and wine (seriously - my family is picky AF and even they were raving about the food), and the kindest and most accommodating staff (shoutout to our fantastic Event Manager Julia Freet). They made the process so easy and enjoyable - I'm biased but many others told us it was the best wedding ever! :)Brooklyn Winery's reply:

Koh Sent on 09/28/2022Knew right away it was "the one"
Once we saw Brooklyn Winery, we knew we didn't have to see any other venues. We didn't want to work with a completely blank space, and that's why we loved Brooklyn Winery – even without any of our touches, it was already warm, intimate and stunning (that green wall and skylight!). We love that the catering is done all in-house, and the food was *exceptionally* good (the tasting a few months out was one of the highlights of our experience, and they are so good about making sure you get to eat day-of as well!). Marissa and the rest of the team were so easy to work with, and made the experience so stress-free and easy to manage – a true dream team in collaboration with our wedding planner. Can't recommend them enough!Brooklyn Winery's reply:
Hello Emily and Arun,
Thank you for your thoughtful words. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you from the beginning and we are beyond thrilled that your day was everything you had hoped!
I remember that you got engaged at a winery in California and we're so excited that we could be a part of your story at a winery in New York!
Many best wishes to you on your new adventure together! We look forward to seeing you at the wine bar.

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:
Hello Karla and Andrew,
