    We loved our Wedding at Sixty Pine!

    We could not have imagined a more perfect venue and team for our wedding than Sixty Pine Street and Masterpiece Caterers.

    The Venue: From the moment we walked into Sixty Pine Street, we knew it was the one. The space is a historic mansion tucked into the Financial District, and it is truly stunning. The bar on the first floor is absolutely gorgeous, with a classy, old-New York feel that set the tone for our entire celebration. Each room has its own personality, filled with unique artwork and murals, which made the whole night feel like an experience. Our guests loved exploring the different spaces, and the glamorous, old-school New York City vibe was everything we dreamed of for our wedding.

    The Catering: The food and drinks from Masterpiece Caterers were a highlight of the evening. Cocktail hour alone was unforgettable—with hot and cold stations, passed hors d’oeuvres, and options for every dietary need. Guests told us over and over how much they loved it and didn’t want it to end. Then came dinner for nearly 180 guests, and every single plate arrived warm, beautifully cooked, and perfectly timed. No one left hungry, and the wine selection elevated the meal even further. To top it all off, the late-night station kept everyone fueled for the dance floor—it was a huge hit.

    The Team: A special thank you to Kevin Mattner, President of Masterpiece Caterers, who ensured our wedding went off flawlessly. From our first tour of the venue through every moment of the wedding weekend, Kevin’s professionalism, expertise, and care were unmatched. He helped us source amazing vendors, designed menus that fit our vision perfectly, and coordinated every logistical detail so that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. It’s clear he is passionate about making each event extraordinary, and we could not be more grateful.

    If you’re looking for a chic, classy New York City wedding venue, look no further than Sixty Pine Street. And if you want an event team who will exceed your expectations in every way, Masterpiece Caterers—and especially Kevin—are second to none.

    Exceptional

    We ended up getting married at the View at Battery Park by Masterpiece Caterers. We had a micro wedding. Kevin Mattner and his team was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for better.

    Outstanding Service, Food, Location

    My husband and I got married on April 26, 2019 at the India House. I dragged my feet writing this review because I wanted to get down as many details as possible! Our wedding was everything we hoped for and more, thanks to this incredible venue.

    The service. Kevin and his team were radically hospitable, granting any and every request we threw his way. From the initial walk-through, to tasting the food, to proclaiming our vows, Kevin was beyond hospitable and a joy to work with. His team moved furniture, helped us build the perfect environment, supplied beer as requested, and even threw in our favorite treat, pigs-in-a-blanket, even though it wasn't on the menu. From little things like making sure my dress was straight when I walked down the aisle to preparing a private table of the food and drink for my husband and I to enjoy immediately following the ceremony, this venue was full service and consistently helpful. Being a professional event planner in NYC myself, I noticed Kevin's event expertise and genuine care of our event right off the bat. He cared about the specifics in a way most venues don't - like flow of foot traffic, seating arrangements, and where the band should set up. His willingness to work with us to make our day uniquely our own was pleasantly surprising in the world of event or wedding planning, especially in NYC where they nickel and dime you for everything. Not at the India House. Kevin worked with our budget from day one to make our dream wedding possible, and he didn't compromise on service. His team was far and away the most accommodating staff I've ever worked with on an event that I even re-booked his venue for a work event, which proves Kevin's professionalism, confident team, and kindness.
    He let us bring in our own A/V company, photographer, DJ, and band. All our vendors complimented Kevin and his team on our wedding day and told me how easy they were to work with. 

    The Food. Our guests raved about the food, drink, and venue. Many told us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever attended. Still, one year later, we still hear comments about how great the food was. We did a cocktail reception for the whole reception with one hour of jazz bad and the rest DJ dancing. This allowed our guests to mingle around the venue, meeting others and eating whatever came by and displayed stationary.

    Location. Location. Location. The India House Location was key for us in planning our wedding. Located at One Hanover Square in the Financial District, this historic building in a historic neighborhood gave our guests a LOT to enjoy, from night life on stone street and the famous Fraunces Tavern to Lady Liberty tours and Brookfield Place. Hotels in the area and transportation on all major subway lines was super convenient for our many out-of-town guests.

    Stunning, Unique and Joyous: One Hanover Square

    The venue at One Hanover Square, also known as the India House, was the most unique, inspiring and amazing experience for a wedding that we are still getting compliments two months later. We could not have done this without Kevin Mattner, the person who manages the venue. Kevin is cool, calm and collected in an industry that is usually full of high-pressure and anxious people. He was beyond thoughtful and responded to any questions or concerns with solutions rather than just “no” or “that will cost XYZ” as other venues did. We gave Kevin our budget and he was incredibly conscious of that the entire time, which was a breath of fresh air. Visiting other venues, there is a random 22% service fee, but Kevin was very upfront that the India House does not charge that fee and thereby there would be no hidden fees. The food was phenomenal in both cocktail hour and dinner with fresh oysters (I’m very particular) and the best coconut shrimp I’ve ever eaten. My husband was a huge fan of our “Southern Comfort” station, which had homemade biscuits with different jams, fried chicken and mac and cheese. When we tried to add another (unnecessary) station to cocktail hour, Kevin was very clear that we could, but that we didn’t need to spend the extra money. I have never heard of someone trying to have you NOT spend money for a wedding. I trusted him implicitly and the result of our wedding was incredible. The venue rocked with our 9-piece band that was perfect for dancing. Not the typical banquet hall and our photos have turned out incredible. The drinks were top shelf and many friends shared that they ordered Manhattans, martinis and other complex drinks without being turned away, as other wedding venues sometimes do. Kevin provided a list of recommended vendors with whom I was incredibly happy to work. While most brides are balls of anxiety, I was able to remain free of unnecessary stress because of my trust in Kevin, the staff at India House and the vendors he recommended. If I could do it all over again, my husband and I would choose 1 Hanover Square again and again. You will not regret your decision to have your wedding there.

    Beyond Expectations

    I have taken way too long to write this review because I've been struggling with how to describe such an incredible experience. First, I will say that the primary reason we chose India House was because of Kevin. That's not to take away ANYTHING from the venue because its incredibly beautiful and unique. It's just that we both knew as soon as we met Kevin, we would be taken care of from start to finish as though we were his only customers and we were not wrong. The man must have several clones of himself to be able to accommodate all the different weddings that go on there with such white glove service. Kevin was the only Event Director to ask me what our budget was and from there how we could work backwards to ensure we stayed within budget. Every other venue contact just gave me a number and that was that. Kevin was adamant that weddings should be about the couple and not just about $$$$. We are so incredibly thankful for him and his OUTSTANDING staff who made the actual day run as smooth as can be.

    Now the venue itself...indescribable. We spent some time looking around the city and nothing had seemed really unique to us until we visited India House. I remember walking up the cobblestone streets and seeing chandeliers glowing inside through the windows and feeling like I was being transported back to a different time in NYC. We stepped inside and that feeling did not leave. It's beautiful, historical, and so unique for a wedding. We had a little over 200 people and we utilized every room in the building with our ceremony on the 3rd floor, cocktail hour on the 1st, dinner on the 2nd and dancing back up on the 3rd. Our guests are still talking about what an awesome venue it was and how they loved that they got to see the entire building! We had been worried about the flow leading up to the day but it really worked out perfectly.

    Last bit I want to touch on - the FOOD! Tons and tons of it! There are several different food stations you could choose from but I wasn't really finding anything that represented my hometown (Fl. Keys). We had chosen Chinatown for NY, Mediterranean for Greece (our honeymoon), and we were looking for something to represent the Keys. When I mentioned this to Kevin, he was so excited to come up with a whole new station for us and we spent time going over what dishes could be included. It turned out AWESOME and we had so many people comment on the food. Again - can't say enough for Kevin and his team as this was such a nice touch for us!

    To us, our wedding was absolutely perfect. We wouldn't redo a single thing other than to go back and do it again as a wedding guest :) People have asked if we have the post wedding blues - the answer is definitely no. Wedding planning was stressful and crazy and we're glad that part is over - we're only sad we don't have a reason to talk to Kevin every day!

    Excellent Wedding Day Venue with Impeccable Service

    1 Hanover Square was the perfect venue for our wedding reception and we couldn't have been happier with our choice!!! Kevin and his team were reliable, detail-oriented, and highly professional throughout the entire process. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue and how delicious and excellent the food was for both our cocktail hour and our buffet. We were able to enjoy the space to ourselves the day of our wedding reception, with our cocktail hour on one floor and dinner and dancing on another floor. The space allowed for a beautifully intimate, elegant, and charming evening, and Kevin and his team ensured that everything went smoothly leading up to and day-of our wedding. Picking 1 Hanover Square for our special day couldn't have been a better decision!!! Thank you for an unforgettable and magical day!!

    Incredible to work with!!

    Kevin and his team were absolutely a dream to work with. When we met Kevin, we knew we were in good hands and booked the venue immediately. He is incredibly thoughtful, responsive and detail-oriented-- you know you can trust him. Nicki was our coordinator on the evening of our wedding and was also incredible to work with. She helped with the scheduling of the evening to ensure our photographer got great shots, steamed my dress, got me espresso and made me feel confident and comfortable. The venue itself is soo elegant and very old-school NYC- the photos do not do it justice. If you want to have your dream wedding then book with them!!

    Special place for a special day

    My (now) wife and I had our wedding at 1 Hanover Square and we could not be more pleased with the experience. 1 has more character and history than any of the other venues that we visited. Happy that we had our wedding here rather than in one of the more sterile catering halls elsewhere in the city.

    From beginning to end, Kevin and his staff were incredibly professional, efficient, and creative in helping to transform our dream wedding into a reality. Every detail was taken care of, which removed a lot of stress from the wedding day.

    We also felt that 1 Hanover Square was also a tremendous value for the money, and that to get a similar wedding experience elsewhere in the city we would have had to pay substantially more.

    Overall, we could not recommend 1 Hanover Square enough. It is an incredibly special space befitting a special occasion.

    Great experience!

    We had our wedding at 1 Hanover Square and had a great experience. The setting was beautiful and their catering team did an amazing job orchestrating the evening's events. The food was excellent. We were very lucky to have found this place!

    Best venue in NYC

    We could not be happier with our wedding night at Hanover Square. Sonia and her team went above and beyond! Food and atmosphere were just perfect. It was a night to remember and we are thrilled with our whole experience! All of our guests kept dying how it was the best wedding and I couldn’t agree more! Very professional, flexible and helpful. I had totally trust in our vendor and 100% made the right choice by having our wedding with them. Happy couple!!

    Impeccable

    We wish there were more than 5 stars to give. My husband and I fell in love with the venue as soon as we walked into 1 Hanover square. It reminded us of nice classy ‘Beauty and the Beast’ dinner reception and that’s exactly what we had sought for 100 guests we planned. Spacious bridal suite, classy antique paintings, elevators, clean bathrooms... etc. As we were speaking with Kevin to get planning started, we knew he was going to be “our person” for our day. His smile he had when he described about the food and his staff was genuine. That confidence was not from a salesman who just wanted to fill in the date for the heck of filling in, but from a person who truly wishes to make your day impeccable. Transitions were smooth from the ceremony to cocktail hour to reception, which was crucial to me so that guests won’t be confused on the day of. After the ceremony, Kevin’s Team set aside mini dining table for the newly wedded husband and wife to have the moment alone and enjoy the food. Great resting point for us to relax before greeting the guests and let marriage sink in. Oh, cant talk enough about food. Usually wedding food isn’t what we look forward to for the wedding, but boy, we are hoping to have one of our friends to get married at 1 Hanover square so we can taste the wedding food again lol. Not to mention, amazing cake that was not too sweet but was a perfect dessert. Not only was Kevin accommodating to our needs financially and logistically but also made sure that we were genuinely welcomed to have the wedding at 1 Hanover square. If you plan to hire someone on your wedding day, please don’t waste your time, just trust Kevin and Nikki for the top quality. Our bridal party still praise about how put together the wedding was and we know for the fact that it would not have been possible without Kevin’s Team. The top of the cake was ready for us to take home, which we truly appreciated as well. As the bride and groom on the wedding day, you can easily miss out on the bigger things such as enjoying you and your husbands day with the guests and family as the day gets crammed and hectic.1 Hanover square will ease off any miscellaneous burdens off of your shoulders. Lot of the things were already done even before anyone of the bridal party had to remind the team. We are grateful to have met such a wonderful team for our magical day. Truly wishing the best endeavors for many greater things to come for 1 Hanover square.

    Professional, Courteous, Patient, Amazing

    The staff at Masterpiece led by Kevin is unmatched! He helped us through this very difficult planning, and instilled confidence that him and his team would make sure that every step of our wedding would be taken care of. He over delivered on this promise, and made us feel comfortable at each phase of the planning around the venue. Even when we encountered an unforeseen issue, he still was able to adjust accordingly and keep our wedding intact. We thought going without a planner would doom the wedding, but the staff at Masterpiece/India House made sure not one beat was missed.

    India House in itself honestly needs no introduction once you step inside the historic walls of the building. It gave me a sense of old New York for those who still remember, and was one of the many reasons we chose the venue. I cut my teeth down in the Financial District, andwith our church and hotel within steps of India House, it was a no-brainer to go there and celebrate our wedding. Kevin, if you're reading we apologize for the lateness in this review but honestly it's just because everyday since our special day we've never felt more in love, and have been busy as a new couple. This truly was the best day of my entire life, and it'll be hard to replace it with any other.

    Absolutely the best

    Words cannot express how happy we were with Kevin and the entire staff at India House. To be honest, we were on the fence at first with India House, but Kevin was very patient with us and went above and beyond to help us have the best wedding with our budget. I can't express how wonderful Kevin is to work with and how genuinely he cares for each couple who plans a wedding with him. One thing that Kevin told us that really is the core of who he is: "Whether it's a wedding for 25 people or 250 people, it's still a wedding." Whether you will have a small wedding or a large wedding, Kevin's attention to detail is incredible. The food at India House is also amazing, and all of our guests raved about the food and desserts. Go with India House.

    The Vintage New York Wedding of Our Dreams!

    The entire experience at India House/One Hanover Square was everything we could have wished for! We knew we wanted an elegant yet warm, intimate setting in Manhattan for our tiny wedding of 25 guests. We were drawn to the architecture and décor, which evoked Old World elegance. After we looked through the photos and read the reviews, we were convinced this would be a wonderful match for us!

    Kevin Mattner was immediately responsive and gracious. From the beginning, throughout an incredibly smooth process, he and his team treated us like high-priority clients, even with our small numbers. We ultimately opted for the beautiful Hanover Room – with its red walls and gorgeous chandeliers – for both the ceremony and reception. Kevin drew up two distinct diagrams for our ceremony and dinner seating options. We chose the long dining table so we could all sit together for the intimate, elegant feel we had envisioned. (It also made for dramatic photos!)

    In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Kevin and his team guided us each step of the way – from menu to sound system. The day of our wedding couldn’t have gone better from start to finish. The team handled everything – from bridal room set up to arranging the ceremony and dining area décor and then packing everything up for us. Before the ceremony, Kevin even stopped by the bridal room with a cellphone video to make sure I was happy with how the décor turned out! It was all perfect! (Also, special thanks to Nikki and Veronica and the rest of the team for taking care of all the details and also checking in to make sure I had everything I needed.) I also appreciated the lovely tea sandwiches and beverages available in the bridal room, since I had not had a chance to eat that day with hair and makeup prep!

    Our friends and family are still talking about the “magical evening,” with the gorgeous venue and delicious food receiving glowing compliments!

    On a final note, it must be said that of all the places we considered, India House/One Hanover Square was by far the best value for the quality and service we received. We were able to have the wedding of our dreams within our modest budget. We couldn’t be happier!

    Amazing Venue and Team!!

    1 Hanover and Masterpiece Caterers were wonderful to work with. My wife had reached out to 1 Hanover while we were looking for our wedding reception venue. Initially, the cost was outside of our budget, but Kevin was great and helped work with our budget, which allowed us to choose 1 Hanover. From our first walk through we knew this was the venue we wanted to use and Kevin and his team helped make the vision come to fruition.

    The entire staff, including upper management and ownership, was great to work with and constantly assured us that everything would work out as we wanted. Everyone was extremely accommodating during the entire process. We had some concerns that a few family members would not be thrilled because the space is not the traditional catering hall layout and some older family members had a tough time imagining the space when we described it. However, Kevin assured us they would come around after they saw the venue for themselves, and they did. We had a larger wedding (250 guests) and we were able to utilize all 3 floors of the venue. Cocktail hour was on the first floor, with a seated dinner on the second floor, followed by dancing on the third floor.

    All of our guests had an amazing time and we received so many compliments on our wedding. All of the food was delicious and the service was fantastic. Our guests keep talking about the chicken and waffles!

    Kevin, Gieto, Nikki, and the entire Masterpiece staff really took care of us and we appreciate all the effort they put in to make our wedding a memorable one. I would highly recommend 1 Hanover and their other spaces for all your event needs!

    The perfect place to get married in NYC!

    My wife and I got married here this April and we could not recommend it higher! We had so many compliments on how beautiful this venue is.

    India House has three main floors to host the event, with each serving a purpose. We loved that we were able to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing all within the same venue (and in downtown NYC no less!). We worked with Kevin at the venue and he couldn't have been easier to work with. He was extremely flexible in allowing us to arrange the wedding we wanted to have and was always fast to respond to any of our questions. Working with Nikki and Marcella at the venue was also a pleasure and they were consistently checking on our wedding day to make sure everything was going as we hoped.

    Another amazing thing about this venue: the food! I'm not kidding when I say we had DOZENS of couples come up to us after the wedding mentioning how they've never been fed so well at a wedding in their life! They also arranged for us to have an ice cream bar which was a huge hit.

    The venue itself is also beautiful (it's an old trade house that functions as a club for bankers during the week) and you really do feel like you're stepping back in time when inside. We were so happy we chose 1 Hanover Square as our venue and you are making a fantastic choice if you decide like us!

    Fantastic!!!!

    Enough cannot be said about what a wonderful wedding Stef and Ernest had at the India House this past weekend (February 16). The India House looked beautiful, the food scrumptious, the staff polite and professional and attention to details impeccable. We have received nothing but accolades from our many guests as well. I know I speak for all us in saying that It was a pleasure to work with Kevin throughout the past year and accommodating our every need. Everything was perfect, even the February weather, and it was an evening none of us will ever forget.

    Highly Recommend - Beautiful space and fantastic team

    Highly recommend! Both Kevin and Nikki did a fantastic job and helped make it a perfect wedding and evening. The entire event felt totally seamless, the space was stunning, and everyone (including us) raved about the food. Not to mention perfect coordination with the band and vendors, which was a massive relief. It was such a magical evening and we feel very lucky to have had it at 1 Hanover.

    Above and Beyond Wedding

    We had a lovely wedding at India House in July 2018. Kevin was incredible at orchestrating the entire event. He was professional, responsive, incredibly welcoming and beyond generous. He took incredible care of us from start to finish. Chef Omar’s food is far beyond your standard wedding fare. We had the roast duck which was cooked perfectly and a specially designed seafood cocktail hour in addition to the traditional India House curry station. Lastly, Nikki was the perfect attendant to us the day of our wedding. She kept the events of the evening moving along, and checked in on us throughout the evening. She also designed our signature cocktail. I don’t believe there is any better team to work with in all of New York City. These are three truly incredible professionals and beyond that truly incredible people. Kevin, Omar, and Nikki, thank you again for making our wedding so special. We are forever grateful. You guys rock 🤟

    The most magical wedding

    I have already recommended Kevin, Nikki, and the rest of the One Hanover Square / India House team to friends getting married. Not only was the space beautiful, the food amazing, and the staff more than accommodating, but Kevin and team made the year of planning my wedding as stress free as possible. My husband and I came in with a very specific vision of a beautiful, fall, black tie affair, and Kevin was with us every step of the way to ensure it was perfect. We felt so confident in working with him and his team that we even cancelled previous plans to host a brunch at a different venue and chose to do it the next morning at India House. We have never received so many compliments on both the wedding AND the brunch the next morning from guests. Kevin, Nikki, and the chefs went above and beyond, even going as far as inviting both sets of parents to a private drink at India House to ensure their fears about the day were put to rest. Kevin was also a text, phone call, or email away, and was never afraid to give us an honest answer. We hope to host many, many more events with Kevin and team in the future! Best wedding decision we made!!

    Perfection

    We cannot recommend the India House enough to friends and family. Kevin was absolutely top notch - respectful, thorough, understanding and, best of all, patient. Our guests couldn't stop talking about the place. They all kept saying they should party there every Saturday!

    We can't say enough great things about Kevin and his team at the India House. From the beginning of the process to planning the big day to day of, Kevin was there and made everything seamless! He was especially accommodating about making the entire menu to our dietary restrictions and wedding traditions before, during and after the ceremony. The food was delicious, the venue was stunning; it was everything we could have asked for and more!

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kevin, Nikki and the team at the India House. We were married at the India House on 8/11/18. Kevin is such a professional! We knew we were in great hands from the moment we met Kevin for our first tour of the venue and he and the team only continued to exceed expectations throughout the process. He was responsive to every email and phone call, no matter how small the detail/request.

    Our actual wedding day was smooth and flawless thanks to the team. Nikki was INCREDIBLY patient with me and my last minute requests/questions. She also took special care to ensure our family heirloom, cake cutter, was packed and given to a responsible party/in safe hands (my parents) at the end of the night. The food was great. Our guests especially liked the wine selection and late night food station.

    The venue itself is fantastic. We loved the progression of the event with the ceremony on the first floor, cocktail hour on the second and reception on the third. On the financial side of things - after touring several other venues, it was refreshing to meet Kevin and learn about their approach to weddings. The venue is straightforward with pricing and there weren't any hidden fees (which we found in many other venues).

    We really cannot say enough good things about Kevin, Nikki and the India House team. Thank you for taking care of us, our family and guests. Highly, highly recommended.

    We were blown away with the level of care Kevin and his team showed throughout the entire process. Our every need was met and our expectations were surpassed. The venue is absolutely beautiful [elegant & intimate...timeless really]. The food is superb [quality and quantity - beginning with the drinks/snacks in the bride/groom suites and ending with the much raved about cookies and sweets that accompany the wedding cake]! It's been over a month and guests still mention the food and drinks (the rare cajun beef, seared tuna and arctic char are musts). The staff are helpful, kind and efficient. We had family come in from Spain [who spoke no English] and they made sure they had staff that spoke fluent Spanish - and went as far as to have the menu printed in both English and Spanish to make all of the guests feel welcome. This was very much appreciated. We would certainly recommend India House; if you decide to go with this venue you can rest assured that you will be in very capable hands. To those of you who are considering - take the plunge, and to those that have already decided - great choice!

    We had our wedding at the India House in April 2018 and it was absolutely wonderful. The building itself is beautiful and a perfect setting for a New York wedding. Kevin was super easy to work with, extremely responsive and did a great job coordinating both before and during the wedding. He made sure that all the little details were perfect and was so attentive to us. He really worked with us to create the wedding we wanted - including allowing my husband to put together his own beer list. Kevin's team does a wonderful job from top to bottom. The food was absolutely delicious and earned rave reviews from our family and friends. Best of all, the prices are really reasonable, especially considering what an incredible value they're offering. I really can't recommend the India House enough!

    My husband Grayson and I got married here in September 2017. Kevin was our main POC from the venue. He helped build out an amazing weekend for us and our family. Friday was a welcome dinner at India House. We did welcome cocktails in the downstairs Red Room. It was the perfect place for us to greet our guests and close enough for us to sneak away to their magical blue room bar to take photos of just the two of us. Our wedding was that Saturday at their other location, Elevated Acres and Dune Studios, just a few blocks away. We held the ceremony outside at Elevated Acres and danced the entire night away in Dune Studios. Kevin handled everything for us! Lighting, staging, rentals, floor plan and the food were all incredible. He was very responsive, professional and flexible with whatever task we gave him. We planned our wedding while living in San Francisco, so having Kevin on the ground was invaluable. He was trustworthy and reliable, therefore we knew the vendors he suggested were reputable. He handled all of our outside vendors including chalkboard artists, magician, balloon vendors and even our live doves vendor! I highly recommend hosting your wedding at India House, Elevated Acres and Dune Studios. Check out our pics...we had a blast!

    We had our wedding here because I love historical buildings and everything was maintained and decorated so nicely. All the food was fantastic and there were so many rooms for the guests to hangout in, the red Hanover Room, the Blue Bar, the welcome lobby beautiful art; something for everyone. Kevin made sure all our concerns were addressed and carefully explained to us with his industry expertise and accommodated us with our request for last minute room changes of the different events of the night. He takes his job very seriously so there is no detail too little for him to handle so you will be in good hands with him and his team.

    As a Wedding Planner based in NY The India House is one of the most unique and special locations to host a Wedding or special event. I absolutely LOVE bringing my brides and grooms to tour the space, because once they are inside, they light up and ready to reserve their date. Kevin and his team always bring their "A-game" and I never have to worry about a single detail being overlooked. No request is ever too big, no concern is ever too small - they care and it shows. The food is outstanding as is the service - always consistent. My couples call me the next day raving about everything from the unique settings the venue offers, to the VIP treatment they and their guests enjoy throughout the evening. I highly recommend The India House for a Wedding or any type of event - you will not be disappointed!

    Any venue can provide good food. What sets this venue apart is the whole package. The venue is a museum. The history makes it memorable. From the grand double staircase to the main ballroom, to the working fireplaces, and the historic fixtures. The setting is very unique for a traditional wedding. Kevin, the General Manager was wonderful. He was easy to work with, allowed us to make numerous changes, some last minute, and OVER delivered on all his promises. His guidance was invaluable and he was present and available during the affair. His team was extremely professional and oftentimes proactive in their endeavors. The guests are still calling us wowed over the entire experience. The food was perfect. Our selections for the cocktail party included carving tables of pastrami and turkey, a pasta station, lollipop lamb chops, mini lobster rolls, potato pancakes with sour cream and smoked salmon, seared tuna, and numerous other finery. The selected main course included bronzini, rack of lamb and other choices. Everything was amazing. The hotel was less than a block away, perfect for the elderly staying there. The venue is handicap compliant, with restrooms and elevators on every level. Another benefit of 1 Hanover Square/Masterpiece Caterers, is the availability of multiple rooms. We were able to use many, ie: bridal suite, groom suite, rehearsal room, signing of marriage license, meeting with the rabbi, breakfast the day after, the main foyer for the guests to assemble, the red room for the ceremony, the "trading pit" for the cocktail party, the Marine room for the grand reception. Finally as the guests left, we had cookies, hot out of the oven for our guests. WOW! The next day, we had a wonderful breakfast. Service was outstanding, from the bartenders, to the waiters, and the captain. The staff are professional, and perfect, like a well oiled machine. For the services provided, the cost was very reasonable. Would absolutely return !!

    From the moment we walked through the front door we knew this is where we wanted our dream wedding. Kevin offered us fantastic options to make the wedding a day to remember and still fit in our budget. The venue is so beautiful that our decorating budget was kept to a minimum. We felt as though the wedding was held in a private mansion, which in reality how what India House was built. Our wedding felt as though we had stepped into the age of elegance and romance. He and his staff were on top of everything so that all details were taken care of and the reception flowed smoothly. Any issues (spilled drinks or food and fussy guests) were taken care of without delay. We highly recommend Kevin and India House for your next event. Mother of the Bride

    This review is a admittedly overdue, but my husband and I of nearly a year have had plenty of time to reflect on our first year of marriage and the incredible party and celebration with which we kicked it off! We chose India House while looking for a venue that felt like a classic and classy winter evening in Manhattan. We couldn't imagine ourselves in a hotel ballroom, a country club, or contrived Brooklyn "warehouse" over-decorated with mason jars. As soon as we stepped inside India House and met Kevin and Arlinda, we knew we found our venue. The space itself has the authenticity of old world New York without being stuffy. Kevin tastefully decorates and updates India House so it maintains timeless style. We were married in December, and the white lights, garlands, and soft candles gave our venue a romantic, warm ambiance.

    Perhaps most importantly though, Kevin and Arlinda and the rest of the staff are true professionals that ensured the evening was executed seamlessly. We utilized the entire venue, and they helped create a time table and flow to the evening that kept our guests moving throughout the building during different phases of the wedding. I really had nothing to worry about that day or night except enjoying myself and trying not to have my dress stepped on!

    Lastly, I can't write a review without mentioning the food. The meal was really important to my husband and me. We didn't want a dinner that was forgettable or served banquet salmon with asparagus. Our guests still rave about the food, right down to the spiked rootbeer floats for dessert. And maybe most amazingly, my husband and I actually had a chance to eat! Kevin set up time after the ceremony for us to sample all our hors devours and sip champagne in the privacy of our own room upstairs. We would recommend this venue a 100 times over. Thank you to the India House team for making our wedding a truly wonderful evening that reflected our tastes and style as a couple!

    Our wedding at the India House was incredible. The wedding coordinator we worked with was absolute perfection. He was so easy to communicate with and accommodating for our requests.
    From cocktail, to dinner, to dessert, the food was spectacular. Our guests could not rave more about the wedding cake and the amazing Harry Met Sally deli station in the cocktail hour.
    We would absolutely have another event there in a heartbeat, and plan to return to the Blue Bar every anniversary.

    Wedding of Dorothy and James at The India House, October 21, 2017

    Thanks to Kevin Mattner, who managed everything, and his excellent staff, Dorothy and James had the wedding of their dreams! As parents of the bride we couldn't be happier! The professional help and guidance Kevin patiently provided for us regarding every decision we needed to make was invaluable and spot on!

    The food was amazing and the entire staff did an outstanding job, providing impeccable service throughout the entire evening! We have heard from many of our guests and the compliments have been effusive. So many people said that this was the best wedding they had ever been to! Consistently mentioned, was the beauty of the venue, the great food, and the attentive staff.

    We want to thank The India House for making Dorothy and James's wedding such a beautiful celebration. The day was perfect from start to finish! It was a wonderful confluence of outstanding professional management on the part of Kevin; a very attentive, friendly and competent staff; fabulous food and a gorgeous venue. Thanks to all at the The India House, we will have memories to cherish for a lifetime!

    THIS PLACE IS THE BEST!!! You cannot go wrong. I couldn't have dreamt a better wedding. The service, food, decor, ambiance, and the attention you get from India House (1 Hanover Sq) is unparalleled. My friends and family were blown away. Everyone so impressed and said this was the best wedding they have attended. And I really give India House the credit for this. Their service for flawless. And the venue captures the energy, elegance and class of a NYC wedding. And I can't say enough good things about Adam Hartofilis (Director of Catering at India House). He is a perfectionist. Trust me when I say he cares more about your wedding than even you do. And he really does fulfill all your wishes. Adam is AWESOME. Trust your wedding plans to Adam and you will be amazed. Thank you so much to everybody at India House, especially Adam.

    Not sure if words could describe how happy we were with India House as our wedding venue. It's stunning on it's own and with the food and service and overall attention to detail it really made our wedding so special. Adam & Kevin put with our million emails and questions, helped us with everything along the way and felt like family at the end of it. We loved everything about our experience!!

    My wife and I were married on August 26th at India House in New York, NY, and the event was hosted and choreographed by Masterpiece Caterers. India House exuded quality, excellence, and class. The décor was a fantastic blend of nautical memorabilia and antiques interspersed with architectural elements that made for a wonderful setting. Our wedding ceremony took place on the first floor, followed by a cocktail reception and then dinner and dancing on the second floor giving us the feel of being able to utilize a very large space. Views were magnificent from all vantages. The food was amazing, and more than a month later, we are still craving the delectable delights from our special evening. One would be remiss not to give attention and gratitude to the staff. They were everywhere - a tighter staff to patron ratio than one finds teacher to student in schools. The staff became immediate family, and our wedding involved a fair number of children who stayed up way too late. The staff were attentive to all of their needs ranging from off menu items to please youthful palates and extras on desserts. One cannot overstate the importance of enthusiastic and motivated staff in making one's wedding exemplary. Finally, we would be completely remiss without recognizing Kevin Mattner, who is clearly the heart, soul, spine, and foundation of Masterpiece Caterers. For months, Kevin took us through every step from beginning to end, from every tasting, to every referral, to suggestions we had never considered, he made our evening a success way beyond our dreams. His attention to detail and his patience when there is so much happening is clearly a testament to his decades in the business and experience pulling off the best year after year. Kevin is indeed a maestro who conducts a world class orchestra at Masterpiece Caterers. Thank you for a wonderful, wonderful experience.

    If you are looking for a classic NYC wedding that won't break your budget but still feels like a million dollars, book India House at 1 Hanover Square. From the setting itself - a 1835 building designed after an Italian Mansion that is cloaked in history - to the first-class staff, the 5-star food and top-notch service, our wedding was beyond exceptional. It was all I could've hoped for - and more.

    From day one, we felt we were in good hands. Kevin Mattner was accommodating, organized, on top of every detail and personable. Plus, he provided excellent suggestions on decor and recommendations for how to structure the night of the wedding. Working with him was effortless and stress-free -- especially the day of the wedding! I attribute the success of our event to him and his attentive staff.

    Aside from the staff, the food is amazing. From the abundant cocktail hour to the three-course dinner that was out-of-this-world to the outstanding wedding cake, I still can't believe we received this kind of quality at our very own wedding! This is something I'd expect from the best restaurants in NYC. Needless to say, we'll be visiting the Blue Bar there often.

    Finally, the price is very affordable. It's amazing everything you get with this venue. Between the outstanding food and drinks, A-list service and being able to entertain our guests throughout the historic NYC building (we had our ceremony on the first floor, cocktail hour on the second floor and reception on the third floor), I'm sure people think we spent much more than we did.

    Our guests keep telling us this is the best wedding they have been to and to me, that's the ultimate testament to this venue. It's a special place. If there was one thing I did right for our special day, it was to chose India House at 1 Hanover Square. I want to re-live that night for the rest of my life!

    Words can not express how AMAZING our Art Deco themed wedding was at India House on June 17, 2017. The entire team at India House by Masterpiece Caters was extraordinary. The catering manager, Arlinda B was a DREAM to work with! The venue was stunning, the food was delicious, the staff was amazing. They far exceeded our expectations. It was my dream to be married in Manhattan, and they made my dream come true!

    We got married at India House on May 20. Needless to say it was the most important and magical evening of our lives. All this would not have been possible if not for Kevin Mattner. We have a pretty unique story with Masterpiece Caterers in that we booked it a year in advance. After seeing the beautiful space, we looked at a couple of others and knew in our hearts this was THE ONE. It felt right and it suited all our needs plus the price was just perfect. We met with a wonderful lady who was going to be our coordinator/manager. She left the company and we were transferred to another person. When that didn't work out, we spoke to Kevin and he immediately made us feel at ease and handled our account from that point forward. He is undoubtedly the most professional, amazing, competent person. He knows his job inside out and he really cares about the happiness of his clients. To him, there is no event or wedding too big or too small. Each one must be treated the same and we certainly felt that way. We had our ceremony in the Hanover Room and the entire 2nd floor to ourselves for cocktail hour, dinner and dancing. Everything looked so beautiful and went smoothly. As a bride who works in events, I was very concerned about everything but Kevin handled it all with ease! All our guests raved about the food and the abundance of it. Everything I imagined turned out better than I expected. Everything flowed smoothly. We had a little hiccup with one of our vendors on the night of the wedding but Kevin dealt with it and literally made a miracle happen. He is always responsive to emails and phone calls and he literally alleviated a lot of worries from an already stressed-out bride. We cannot say enough great things about this space, the staff, Kevin, the food and drinks. They will always hold a special place in our hearts and we cannot thank Kevin and Masterpiece Caterers enough for all that they did to make our wedding as beautiful as it was!

    I don't even know where to begin because everything was amazing! From the beginning Kevin and his team were amazing. Our day went flawlessly, and we were taken care of from the moment we stepped into the building. We've gotten tons of compliments on how good the food was, how beautiful the building was, and how responsive the staff was. We could not be happier with our venue choice, they made our day flawless!

    We could not have asked for a better experience with a wedding venue than we got at India House. We worked with Kevin throughout the process. From the first inquiry, communication was professional, polite, and prompt. We were kept informed of details along the way and reminded of deadlines as they were approaching. We always felt taken care of and reassured.

    We arranged to drop off our decorations and have the wedding rehearsal in the space the night before and everything went smoothly. Jonathan was our day-of coordinator, and he was friendly, energetic, and calm. The space is incredibly beautiful and the level of service and hospitality is unparalleled. I would be very skeptical of finding another venue whose staff went to such far lengths to make us feel happy, comfortable, and relaxed all day and all evening. We got a lot of compliments on the delicious food as well, and the cake provided by their neighbor, Financier. I would highly recommend India House as a wedding venue, you will not be disappointed.

    My daughter and son-in-law got married at City Hall in January, and in April we had a celebration at India House. Our planning was rushed, and we were so lucky to discover this elegant, historic and unique venue. The surroundings were lovely -- our guests commented that they felt like they were in a gracious home, not a catering hall. We didn't have a formal sit-down dinner, but food stations throughout the second floor rooms with different sized tables - large, cocktail and high tops. This encouraged mingling. Kevin, the Event Manager, could not have been more helpful throughout the planning. He was happy to accommodate our requests, enthusiastic about our unusual-style event, re-jiggered the floor plan multiple times as we moved the location of the band and the tables. He had great suggestions, always responded quickly, and bent over backward to make us happy. And he gave us a wonderful price, even including an extra-special food station of our choice. I never imagined that we could have afforded such a sophisticated venue in Manhattan, but the price was right. It was the menu that really sold us, though, definitely not typical wedding food. We had fun and interesting choices -- an Asian station, Mediterranean station and comfort food -- a perfect blend that reflected the diversity of NYC cuisine. Our guests loved sampling different dishes, all delicious. At Kevin's suggestion, we had a late-night station -- NYC street food including hot dogs, pizza, pretzels, and more. This was a giant hit with our guests. And the wedding cake from Financier was scrumptious. I'm still getting phone calls and emails from friends and family telling me what a good time they had and how impressed they were with the food and the surroundings. "Best wedding I've ever been to" is a typical comment. I only wish I had another daughter, so I could do it all over again at India House!

    Kevin & Drana hands down helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect. We are so pleased we went with Masterpiece Caterers for our wedding day. The food was incredible, their staff, and overall experience with weddings was impressive. My husband and I had a short four month engagement and Kevin Mattner, the General Manager, and Drana Ulaj, their catering sales manager, were so helpful every step of the way. They definitely went above and beyond professionalism and friendliness to make me one happy bride. Also the chocolate raspberry cake was a perfect choice!

    I was a wedding planner turned bride in 2016 and knew the only place where I would be in fully trusted hands was at India House with Masterpiece Caterers. I've worked with them before as a planner bringing other clients of mine to them and have always had a really wonderful experience. I have a great relationship with both Kevin and Gieto and knew that they would take very good care of my fiance and I for our wedding day. Well everything WAS beyond perfection from the ceremony to the cocktail style reception. Being a control freak I wanted to see the reception room before the guests did so we arrived a bit early, right after our first look, and with just one glance at the room I was brought to tears. Everything I had planned looked beyond what I'd imagined and Kevin had been there for me every single step of the way taking care of it all! One of the things we were complimented on the most was the food - our family and friends STILL talk about it! I have to say that Kevin is truly the best there is, he is a true professional who is passionate about what he does and will deliver nothing but the best and more! The whole team really outdid themselves and we couldn't have been any happier with things! Thank you Masterpiece Catering for the most perfect wedding day!!!

    We hosted our wedding at India House in September 2016, with Kevin as our main contact. Overall we were incredibly pleased with the service, from the responsiveness to the quality of the food, to the space. We used the Hanover room for our ceremony and reception and had cocktails in the Blue Bar. Our photos turned out lovely from the bright colors of those two rooms. Kevin was very responsive to all emails, and helped allay any anxieties we had. India House staff also served as the day-of coordinators, helping us to run a rehearsal and organizing the bridal party with timed music. Basically whatever we needed the day of the wedding, they took care of. Compared to other venues that we looked at in the city, India House was incredibly affordable. The space has an old- New York feel which was a lot of fun for our guests, most of whom came from out of town. We have no regrets booking with India House, and I highly recommend them!

    My husband and I worked with Kevin Mattner on our wedding in May 2015 at Morningside Castle. Kevin was incredibly professional and responsive to our requests throughout the process. They even cooked up, plated, and served a special dessert that we supplied at no extra cost. Also, when we had family visiting before the wedding, they sent someone with very little notice to show the venue to them. The entire event turned out beautifully and all the guests we spoke to were highly complimentary of Kevin and his team. It was clear to us that Kevin holds himself to very high standards. Because my father spent most of the dinner socializing and left his food unattended, Kevin replaced his steak three times so that he would have hot food in the event he actually sat down to eat.

    We would highly recommend Masterpiece Caterers for any event and especially for weddings at Morningside Castle, which is a beautiful below-the-radar location.

    We had our June wedding at India House and it was absolute perfection. Every step of the process leading up to the day - and the actual day - far exceeded our wildest dreams. We cannot rave enough about the beautiful space, the delicious food, and overall professionalism of everyone who works there. We decided for budget reasons to forgo a wedding planner, and we're glad we did because the Manager Kevin did everything in his power to accommodate all of our questions and requests. He also has several years of experience that helped manage our expectations and guide our decisions. What I appreciate most is that he *always* answered our e-mails in a timely manner, which made the planning process that much easier. We continue to get flooded with compliments from our guests about how wonderful the space was and how smoothly the whole night seemed to run. I encourage anyone who reads this review to immediately book India House!

    From the minute I spoke to Kevin Mattner at MPC, I knew that I was dealing with a professional with a high degree of integrity. My wedding was at The Riverside Church and MPC was the assigned catering company. Every interaction with Kevin was a true display of his work ethic and his commitment to providing quality service. He responded to every e-mail and answered every phone call. And those things matter to me! I always felt like a priority. I told him that even if we (bride + groom) for some reason did not show up, I was not worried about the reception because he was in charge and the guests would be in good hands. The wedding reception was a complete success! Kevin brought class and elegance to the moment. He was putting on my hubby's suit jacket, even when I had forgotten that it should be on for the cake-cutting part of the ceremony. He was there and present to the wants/needs of the event. And a month later, I am still getting compliments on the food and the service. My biggest fear was that the food would be mediocre; cooking for 117 vs cooking for 2 is not the same thing. However, MPC did a fantastic job. Even the typical complainers in my family said that everything was great from the hors d'oeuvres to the staff folding the guest’s napkins when they stepped away from the table. My only regret was not being present to my own plate. I was overwhelmed by the guests in the room that I forgot to try the lobster bisque amuse-bouche. I value great service and I would highly recommend Kevin + MPC for catering jobs. This was one of the times where I really felt taken care of from beginning to end.

    Phenomenal. Kevin was so professional, and between him and our venue coordinator I did not have to worry about a single thing on the day of the wedding. He was responsive to emails at any time of day, any day of the week. The food was fantastic and the service was also awesome. We got a great value for a buffet dinner with open bar, and they did not charge us a plating fee for the cake or any other crazy fees. The company was flexible with us in menu planning after our tasting, and we were very happy with the results. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

    We had our wedding here on June 29th and could not have had a better experience. My fiance and I are both in grad school and had limited time to plan our wedding. We were so pleased with the beautiful, historical ambiance, the DELICIOUS food, and friendly, professional staff. Kevin made planning a wedding as simple as possible and we are thrilled with how the night turned out.

    I had my wedding at India House on May 25th, 2013. I worked with Jessica for some last minute planning and details. She was very patient, friendly and informative and helped us through every aspect of the night. She contacted our vendors and worked with them directly. We were feeling very comfortable that the night would be a success. On the day of the wedding, we showed up about an hour early and took some photos. Then we did a quick rehearsal - which Jessica took notes on. Then we went upstairs to a room that they arranged for us so that we could hide from the arriving guests. There were refreshments and a useful bottle of champagne! During the procession, Jessica was there directing everyone and kept everything in order. The rest of the night was more than what we could have hoped for. After the ceremony, everyone left the ceremony room (Hanover Room) which was then flipped over to the reception room. The cocktail hour food and drinks were great - and the Blue Bar was gorgeous. The staff got everyone seated for the ceremony and when we walked in, the room looked exactly as we imagined. On top of the excellent service, the food was really delicious. We had the filet and the salmon as options and both of our plates were clean when we were done. What more could you want for your wedding besides a gorgeous venue, terrific service and communication, delicious food and all set in the romantic and elegant India House. I couldn't recommend this venue more enthusiastically. We wouldn't have changed a thing.

    The India House is a beautiful old venue in downtown New York City. It is very historic feeling and the staff is wonderful. They are very accomodating and you can have the whole venue. For our fall wedding we had fires going in the fireplaces which made it quite romantic. The food was amazing!

    Beautiful venue in a great location

    Beautiful venue with great aesthetics. Wonderful, historical location which was greatly appreciated by our guests. We had 55 guests in our wedding but the space and arrangements made it feel like a larger wedding. The red room was unique for our ceremony and everything went beautifully. The red room had a piano which we incorporated into our ceremony. The arrangements for the cocktail and reception were amazing. Our guests had a wonderful time during these two events which took part in the second and third floors. The space for our reception looked amazing and we had room for a dance performance before the dancing portion of our wedding. The only Issue was the heat in the third floor. I think the air conditioning was not working properly (which was the case in the bridal suite as well), but after sometime all the guests started feeling the heat. The staff brought a huge fan during the dancing portion which helped mitigate the heat. The venue provided great food with a generous quantity throughout our wedding at India House NYC. All the guests were happy with the meals and service. During the reception there were a few misses while we were dancing. For instance, some tables didn’t get water refills or during the dessert after the cake some tables lacked coffee. This is the information we received from some of our guests. But overall the experience was very nice.

    Our wedding was on 4/29/17 and we could not have asked for more. India House took care of everything, and the event went off without a hitch. Jonathan kept the entire event running so smoothly, and all of our guests could not stop raving about the venue. We would definitely recommend India House, especially to folks looking for an all inclusive venue.

    Husband and I were not the types that wanted a wedding reception. We were happy with just a civil ceremony, but decided to have one for the family. We searched through a mammoth amount of venues and discovered India House. Arlinda promptly got back to us on our inquiry and was able to get a quick tour. We loved how it was not your typical wedding hall/venue. It had a bit of history and personally sold with the Asian tapestries (coming from Asian background) and the Buddha out front. We end up working with Kathleen, who was AMAZING!!! She put all our nerves to rest on the Big Day. She worked with us on our crazy idea and resolved a few hiccups along the way. (Thank you, for the Ginger Beer). Kudos, to the staff as well. Guest loved the food and the southern biscuit bar. More importantly, we were able to enjoy our meal! Thank you for making our day worthwhile and changing our former opinion on a reception. Definitely, recommend India House!!!

    They were very gracious with offering us a GREAT negotiated rate for a wedding - all in at $195/person (including food, cake, alcohol, tax, administration, etc.) with a minimum of only 85 people for a Saturday March 2017 wedding on the more desirable top floor (typically a min of 100)! We ended up using a different place for our wedding but this is a good option for a negotiable wedding venue.

    It's taken me a while to write this review. I wanted to heap praise on India House - the location, decor, the food was all amazing. It was the perfect venue for us, especially since we wanted to have our wedding all in one place, starting with the ceremony on the first floor in the Hanover room, cocktail hour on the second floor and the reception upstairs in the marine ballroom, the facilities were great and everything looked beautiful.

    Working with our event manager Jessica to plan everything was great and she and Alana did a phenomenal job day of. What wasn't so great was on the hottest day of the year there was no air-conditioning in the third floor, and given that they'd had the same problem the day before we felt they could have handled it better, additional fans, maybe switching rooms. What really left a sour taste in our mouths was Kevin's reaction afterward when we called to discuss what happened, he was combative and argumentative. We understand that sometimes things happen (it really was the hottest day of the year and many blessings on whoever thought to pass the iced towels) we just felt let down.

    Sixty Pine Street's reply:

    Thank for for the kind words for Jessica and Alanna, they along with the entire Masterpiece Caterers Staff had worked hard for your wedding day. We love what we do and we want to make sure all our couples have the most fantastic day.

    In regards to the AC, we most certainly have AC on the third floor and we spend a lot of time during the warmer months ensuring they work as we know how important it is to all our events. What we can not control; as many of the businesses experienced that weekend, was the electric company reducing the power flow causing many equipment issues for many local businesses. We are disappointed that this has occurred and tried our best to make all the guests comfortable in a unique situation like this. The owner of Masterpiece Caterers had several phone calls with the couple to address this topic shortly after the wedding. We take all feedback and concerns very seriously. We understand we have one chance at giving a dream wedding to our couples and families.
