Ravel Events at The Ravel Hotel Reviews

Eman and the Ravel Team truly made our wedding day a dream come true! From the very first meeting, she understood our vision and worked tirelessly to bring it to life. Overlooking the stunning New York City skyline, the venue was nothing short of magical, and Eman's attention to detail was evident at every turn.

She coordinated everything seamlessly, from the beautiful floral arrangements to the perfect lighting that enhanced the breathtaking views. Eman was always just a call or text away, addressing any concerns we had and providing reassurance throughout the planning process. Her expertise and creativity shone through, making our wedding not only elegant but also uniquely personal.

The day of the wedding, Eman was a calming presence, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Guests were raving about the flow of the event, the delicious catering, and the ambiance she curated. We could truly enjoy our special day without a worry, thanks to Eman's meticulous planning and execution.

Natalie and I couldn't have asked for a better planner. Eman exceeded all our expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to create their own dream wedding. Thank you, Eman, for making our celebration unforgettable!

The Ravel was the first wedding venue we checked out and we decided it was the one. We went to one other venue in Brooklyn just to compare, and it was clear that the Ravel was the best for value: no rentals required, 3 separate spaces for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and they are INCREDIBLE wedding planners.

Our point of contact throughout the wedding process was Chelsey, and the level of service, vision, personalization and professionalism was like a private wedding planner you pay thousands extra for. I gave her a vibe ("secret garden at night"), we wanted it to feel moody and warm, and she put together tables and decor that were honestly beyond my imagination. Chelsey was available all the time, always got back to us, understood our budget and helped us stretch it where it was important, and threw in whatever she could if she could.

We decided to have our ceremony indoors instead of on the rooftop, and we still got the outdoor moment by throwing the cocktail hour in the Penthouse with the roof retracted.

The food was excellent and Chelsey helped us find amazing vendors for everything else we needed (cake was @thesweetpeace, our incredible florist Gus was another referral, and with Chelsey's nudge and vision we also rented chairs to pull the look together).

Thank you Chelsey and the whole Ravel Events team who gave us a fun and beyond beautiful wedding day. 10/10, would 100% do my wedding there again and refer it to anyone who is looking for a special city wedding.

We loved having our wedding at Ravel - highly recommend! The different event spaces gave us tons of flexibility to create a custom event that was truly a reflection of us as a couple! We loved having the cocktail hour in the Penthouse - everyone enjoyed the gorgeous open ceiling and cityscape views. We were super lucky it was a beautiful night! And the ballroom for the reception was just so grand! All of our guests also raved about the food - particularly the cocktail hour! Everyone loved the sushi tower.

The whole team at Ravel is so amazing and attentive! Eman, the event coordinator, has an incredible design eye and transformed the foyer and ballroom into something so special for us. Jadelyn, the bridal assistant, was so calm and helpful the day of the wedding - she couldn’t do enough for us and it was truly so appreciated. And lastly Julissa, the hotel lead, went above and beyond to get all of our wedding guests rooms in the hotel. She was very responsive via email and phone for not just us, but our guests as well.

We just got married at the Ravel Hotel last Sunday and I am still not over it. I have been looking at pictures and videos obsessively for over a week now. I can not wait for the professional photos. It was truly my dream wedding. The most gorgeous and unique venue overlooking the bridge and the NYC skyline. We had our cocktail hour in the penthouse which offered surreal views. The food was exceptional. My husband and I are major foodies and we have been to a million weddings and have never liked the food. Our foot was really delicious from cocktail hour to the main course and dessert- our guests still raving about it! We worked with Eman who is insanely good at what she does. We knew from the moment we met her that this was our venue and she was who we wanted to work with. She was extremely responsive and helpful through the whole process and I was able to trust her guidance on everything. She killed it!!!! Thank you so much to rockstar Eman and all of the staff at Ravel! It was THE BEST DAY of our lives!!!!

Our wedding was beyond our inspiration and expectations. Eman was so easy to work with. She was so welcoming and warm during this important time in our life. Even when the event was months away, she answered our questions with thoughtful and detailed responses. This event space not only has an amazing event planning team - it also includes catering, bartending, and day-of-staff. We could not have gotten through the day and night without the event managers, bridal attendant, and other staff. We still cannot believe how flawless the day was, but we know it was because of everyone working behind the scenes. We would recommend this venue to anyone who wants their wedding in NYC as the view is breathtaking of the 59th Street Bridge and NYC skyline. Even on one of the rainiest days in March, we had the most amazing pictures and memories made.

We can’t recommend Chelsey enough!! I felt an immediate connection with her from the start - her personality and professional confidence shine through. I felt like I could fully trust her, and I was right! She was so reliable, available, patient, and helpful throughout the whole planning process. Chelsey truly puts her heart into her work and does everything she can for her clients. Our guests raved about the food, the venue, and the whole vibe of the night. We had the best time at our wedding at The Ravel!

My husband and I had the most wonderful experience with Ravel Events! Our event coordinators, Eman and Chelsey, were so helpful from the very start and really made the entire wedding planning process so much less stressful. The venue is also beautiful - we had our reception in the Penthouse, and we were so wowed by the amazing view of Manhattan. The food was also amazing; we got so many compliments from our guests on how amazing the food was. And on top of everything else, the staff were fantastic! My husband and I are so indebted to our wonderful bridal attendant for looking after us and making sure we were actually able to enjoy our own wedding. All in all, I would highly, highly recommend having your event with the Ravel Hotel - they are amazing at what they do!

From our first tour of the Ravel we knew it was the perfect venue for our celebration and we couldn't be happier with our decision to get married there. Having one venue for the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and a hotel for all our guests made planning substantially easier and the night so much more enjoyable for everyone. The entire staff of the Ravel are incredibly professional, going above and beyond in every aspect of the planning and execution, making this such a special event. Eman surpassed all of our expectations and coordinated every single detail perfectly to ensure a flawless day we'll never forget. She was such integral part of all planning & decisions; she helped guide us along every step of lighting, florals, food, décor, etc.

The day of, our bridal attendant, Jadelyn, was a lovely calming presence that every bride needs on her wedding day. She anticipated every one of our needs, making sure we were fed, happy and knew exactly when to take a breath and appreciate the day.

Our guests raved about everything. The views of the Manhattan skyline during cocktail hour, the food being without question the best they've ever had at a wedding, and the stunning ballroom decorated immaculately to our vision. So many of our guests commented that it was the most spectacular wedding they had ever attended. The rooms at the Ravel were also perfect, especially the bridal suite, where we got some of the best pictures on the balconies overlooking the skyline. It was truly the best day of our lives, and we cannot thank everyone at the Ravel for making our dreams come true!

My fiancée and I were looking for locations that captured the NYC skyline. We took a tour of the event space with Chelsey and knew we had found our venue. Chelsey was such an AMAZING planner. She executed our vision exactly the way we wanted it. An intimate celebration of love. Our guest were in AWE from the moment they walked in. The food, The food, The food!!! Guest are still reaching out about how amazing the food was.
I was so at ease with whole day. My bridal attendant was FABOULOUS. She kept me laughing and fed all day. Chelsey and the RAVEL team are unmatched. The views, food, drinks, and decor made for such a magical night. I'm forever grateful to Chelsey, she gave us the wedding of lifetime.

My experience with Ravel was amazing. Eman was very helpful and friendly. She made it easier to plan my wedding; she recommended vendors for the decor and cake, she even shared places for dresses. She helped accommodate with my budget and we were able to plan my wedding in less than 2 months. My wedding day was more than I expected. Everything was organized and so beautiful. I definitely recommend Ravel and working with Eman.

Our wedding at Ravel Hotel was an absolute dream come true, and we owe it all to the incredible team at this stunning venue. From the early planning stages to the final moments of our special day, the staff, especially our wedding coordinators Eman and Jaylen, went above and beyond to make our wedding extraordinary.
Eman, our main wedding coordinator, was a true gem throughout the entire planning process. She worked tirelessly for months, helping us identify the best vendors, meticulously planning every detail, and ensuring that all logistics were in place. Eman's expertise and passion for creating unforgettable weddings were evident in every aspect of our celebration. Her ability to turn our visions into reality made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free.
On the day of the wedding, Jaylen, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute lifesaver. From the moment we arrived, she was by the bride's side, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Jaylen's attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to handle any unexpected challenges allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of the day. Her presence was reassuring, and we felt incredibly well taken care of.
The venue itself is a masterpiece, with the rooftop ceremony providing a breathtaking backdrop of the iconic New York City skyline. The evening views during the cocktail hour were simply mesmerizing, and the combination of the twinkling city lights, delectable food, and delightful drinks created a magical atmosphere. Our reception was nothing short of perfection, and every detail reflected the dedication and hard work of the Ravel Hotel team.
In summary, if you're searching for a wedding venue that combines elegance, breathtaking views, and an exceptional team, look no further than Ravel Hotel. Eman and Jaylen, along with the entire staff, made our wedding day an unforgettable experience. The memories of our rooftop ceremony, the nighttime views of NYC, and the flawless execution of our reception will be cherished for a lifetime. Thank you, Ravel Hotel, for making our wedding day the magical celebration we had always envisioned.

Our wedding at the Ravel Hotel was everything we wanted and more! The staff was so attentive and professional the day of our wedding, it felt so calm and organized. They really brought our vision to life! The views from the Rooftop and Penthouse are truly incredible, and our guests are still talking about “the best food they have ever had at a wedding!” We wish we would do it all again!

Before getting married at the Ravel, my husband planned the most perfect engagement on the roof of the venue with the help of Eman. We loved the venue and working with Eman so much that we decided to book our wedding there as well in September of 2023. Words cannot even begin to explain how happy we are with this decision.
Because of Eman, Jadelyn and the amazing team at the Ravel, our wedding was truly the best day of our lives. The team executed perfectly on turning our vision into a reality and we were absolutely blown away by how smoothly everything ran on the day of. We had always planned to get married on the roof because of the spectacular views that it offers, but due to some rain in the forecast, we ultimately decided to get married in the foyer. While this was not part of our initial plan, the foyer helped promote an intimate setting that created a beautiful ceremony. Following the ceremony, our guests were seamlessly transported up to the penthouse for the cocktail hour where they were greeted with stunning views of the Queensboro bridge and Manhattan landscape. It was truly a dream come true. To this day, our guests cannot stop raving about how GREAT the food was – especially the sushi bar! Multiple stations offered a wide variety of options and the staff worked extremely efficiently to minimize wait times. Following the cocktail hour, guests were again seamlessly transported back down to the ballroom for the reception. The ballroom would not have looked the way it did without the help of Eman throughout the entire process. She provided us with trustworthy vendors to make sure that our vision came to life, and everything was executed perfectly. From the florals to the table layouts and the placement of the dance floor we were able to easily fit our 225 guests. We could not have planned this night without the help of Eman and the entire team at the Ravel. Jadelyn, our bridal attendant, went above and beyond to make sure everything was running on time and that all of our needs were met throughout the day and night.
While this review is long, it doesn’t even begin to describe how grateful we are for the team at the Ravel. We cannot recommend the venue enough and we are hoping that one of our friends books their wedding here so that we can attend another one (as a guest this time!). Thanks again to Eman and the team!!

Ravel Events is such a fabulous venue with stunning rooftop views. Our dream wedding truly came to life at Ravel and we are so happy with how everything turned out.

The service from Eman and her entire team (Tracy, Betsy & Jadelyn) completely blew away our expectations.

Our guests couldn't stop commenting on how much they loved the food!

We would recommend this venue for any events. Special thanks to Eman for making our dream a reality.

My partner and I were absolutely amazed with our wedding. We spent the honeymoon discussing all the things we thought went right or what we would do differently, and the venue and Ravel team was 100% in the what went right column.

Eman was our great wedding coordinator and was there through the whole process as well as on-site the day of the wedding.

The team: Eman, Tracy, Jadelyn, Betsy, and the whole team were great to work with, flexible up until the day of and very helpful on calls with our vendors, many of whom had not worked at the venue before. Once the day was in motion everything was seamless - the team was continuously calm, professional, and helpful.

Venue: We visited 9 venues before choosing this one. The site was beautiful on a summer evening with a sweeping view of the Manhattan night. Three distinct spaces (for us the rooftop, observation deck, and penthouse) for ceremony, cocktail, and reception allowed the guests to flow through and experience the wedding. The team of course is very experienced with the space and had plans for city sound, wind, summer heat, and inclement weather backups.

Organization: Ravel has the timing of their weddings down - they recommended us taking photos before the wedding itself, allowing us to spend almost all the time with our guests instead of being caught up with portraits. The team worked with us to accommodate our flow of the ceremony and reception.

The food: the food the night of was even better than the tasting, and we heard many good things from our guests, including “best wedding food I’ve had” and “better than [famous NY steakhouse which will not be named]”. The team worked with us to select personalized cocktails which fit our styles and were flexible in meeting the drink requests of our guests.

Notes: Some things to consider when picking this venue:
The florals don’t have to be 8ft high and covering the space. We went with a simpler look which we thought worked best for us.

The ravel events team completely blew away our expectations. Eman went above and beyond every step of the way from the day we looked at the venue, to booking, to planning, and the day of our wedding. Eman made sure every possible concern was addressed and even helped execute our vision while staying within our budget. the hotel staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, especially Julissa. I couldn’t imagine going through my wedding day without Jadelyn, the bridal attendant, I had no clue how much I needed her until she was there! The food was delicious, all of the vendors Eman recommended I would personally recommend again and again. All of my guests said it was one of the best weddings they’ve been to. I really have only great things to say about the ravel events team. Thank you!!

There isn’t enough stars in this review that could express how happy we are that we picked Ravel. Choosing Ravel as our wedding venue was the best decision we could have ever made. Starting from the venue itself, location, food, entire staff (Eman, Jadelyn, Steven, Betsy) and just overall coordination. It was pure perfection. We could not be happier with the outcome. Our wedding was more than what we could have ever imagined and it’s all thanks to the incredible team at Ravel. All of our guests were raving about the venue and said it was the nicest venue they have ever seen. They were also blown away by the food and just overall flow of the event. The ceremony, reception and cocktail hour was absolutely incredible and we wouldn’t change a thing.

We also wanted to specifically shout out Eman because without her our wedding would not have turned out as perfect as it was. We met Eman during our venue search and she helped us throughout the decision making process and once we signed on she was part of every important decision - whether it was picking a vendor or how we should structure our florals and decor or just overall flow of the event. She also went above and beyond and we really felt like she was as invested in our wedding as we were. She had so many ideas that we could have never thought of which added so much to our day. She executed everything perfectly and we couldn’t be more grateful that we crossed paths with her during such an important part of our lives!

If you are looking for the perfect NYC wedding location - Ravel is the absolute best there is!

The Ravel Hotel was the absolute perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding on 5/13/2023. You will not find a better place to have an event, because nothing compares. We had the ceremony on the roof which gave a backdrop of the most breathtaking views of NYC. Next the cocktail hour took place in the Penthouse with the roof open, with more amazing views and food that was plentiful, delicious, and unique. Lastly, we had the reception in the Ballroom. The room was beautifully decorated, and we were served even more outstanding food and given impeccable service.
From the minute you book the venue you are given an event manager to handle your affair from beginning to end. Lucky for us we had the opportunity to work with Chelsey. She is undeniable the best there is. She makes herself available to you 24 hours a day 7 days a week. She makes your vision come alive even when you don’t know what you want, which was the case for our daughter. She stepped in and helped with the flowers, menus, table numbers, and seating charts. She didn’t miss a detail.
The entire team was exceptional. Jadelyn was my daughter’s bridal attendant. She never left her side. Stephen provided top notch service throughout the day with the food and service. We did not have to want for anything. They took care of it all without having to ask.
We had a room block at the hotel which Julissa handled. We had numerous changes and additions which she handled with ease. She stayed on top of everything. Our guests could not say enough about the front desk being so friendly and accommodating and the rooms being beautiful.
We had the Estate Suite for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready in and have their hair and makeup done. It was perfect. There was plenty of room and it made for some great pictures.
Our guests could not say enough about the food, service, and atmosphere. We continue to get calls raving about the wedding. People have said it is the best wedding they have been to.
Having a wedding at the Ravel will surpass your expectations. It will be the perfect day. Our advice is don’t look anywhere else!

While gathering my thoughts in preparation to write this review, I thought to myself how will I possibly include everything I want to say and will my words be enough to express my true feelings. From the beginning, my now husband, and I knew that we were destined to have our wedding at The Ravel. We looked at one other venue and that night we chucked the pamphlet straight into the garbage. We knew we didn’t need to look anywhere else and our decision was solidified this past weekend when we had the wedding of our dreams. From the views, to the staff, to the vendors, and everything in between I would have not changed a single thing. Chelsey our event planner, who now feels like a close friend, quite literally went above and beyond. There is nothing she is not capable of doing and I feel honored that I was given the privilege of working with her throughout the wedding planning process as well as on the big day. Jadelyn was my bridal assistant and she truly was more than what her title states. She was there for me every step of the way and I was never in need of anything while having her by my side. Stephen the events operating manager was someone we met at our tasting back in February and from our first encounter we knew we were in good hands. The way he manages his staff and makes a wedding of 160 people seem like a breeze is something that should not go unnoticed. Julissa and all of the staff on the hotel side dealt with every question, change, and concern with ease and made our stay and wedding weekend a seamless process. While it might sound cliche I could continue to express my gratitude, appreciation, and overall love for The Ravel and more importantly the staff that come with it. My husband and I feel as though we made relationships with the staff that will last a lifetime and we are truly saddened that our event is over. We hope someone has their wedding here soon so that we can come back and experience the greatness all over again. If you are looking for a wedding venue, look no further and you will thank us later!

We had the most amazing wedding experience at Ravel. The venue is beautiful. We had our ceremony in the ballroom, cocktail hour in the Foyer, and reception in the Penthouse. The view from the Penthouse with the sunroof open, sun setting, and candles glowing was magical. We could not imagine a better place to have the true NYC wedding we had hoped for. The food and drinks were impressive and the staff was phenomenal.

Eman is fantastic. She guided us through the complicated process of planning a wedding, worked with us for months to define a vision, helped us find great vendors and secure a rehearsal dinner spot, developed a detailed schedule…she helped so much with absolutely every detail. Jadelyn, our bridal assistant, was beyond attentive. Julissa, Betsy, and Stephen did an incredible job making the entire event come together. We’re also so thankful to the bartenders, servers, and other staff for making the entire day so special and seamless for ourselves, our family, and our friends.

We truly could not have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate one of the most important days of our lives.

When people say, where do I even begin, my parents, my husband and myself truly mean this. We started working with Eman in April of 2022 and after our site visit and meeting Eman in person, we knew this was the space, the venue, and the team we wanted behind us on our special day. 

The Venue: 
The venue itself is absolutely stunning, it has this industrial chic feel to it and is a palette that any style will take to. The Penthouse is really the hook - the day we visited, it was a rare 70 degree day, the roof was open and we were overlooking the entire city skyline and the bridge. This space alone was when we knew this is where we’d have our wedding. The views from the Penthouse are incredible and your guests will love it - both day and night and highly recommend hosting your after party here. The pictures we have together as bride and groom from here are just breath taking. We also stayed onsite for our wedding weekend which I highly recommend. As the bride, I booked the Estate Suite - which if you’re getting ready for hair and make up, looking to host friends, this is the spot to be! The room is massive, includes a kitchen area, plenty of seating and a wrap around balcony for you to enjoy views of Queens and Manhattan. 

The Food & Service: 
I can promise you will absolutely find time to eat if you host your wedding at Ravel. The food is delicious and creative. When we went for our tasting, we truly didn’t want the meal to end. Our guests raved about every bite of food they had throughout the night! For the reception meals, we had a few vegans which was totally a non issue for the Ravel catering team and servers. The cocktail hour, dinner service and bartenders were also just fabulous and professional. We were only a wedding of roughly 115 but there was never a wait at the bar - very important! 

The Team: 
This is the MOST important piece I want to highlight, Eman and the Ravel Team. They truly went above and beyond. Eman from day one was extremely responsive, answered every single last question we had - always putting us at ease and making us feel even more confident in the decision to host our wedding at Ravel. Eman throughout the entire planning process introduced us to a handful of vendors and was how we found our photography and officiant! She continually offered to take things off my plate and was quick to partner with my other vendors as she wanted to ensure it was smooth sailing leading up to the big day. It was truly a pleasure working with Eman, she went above and beyond, we are so grateful and appreciative of her!
The entire team, Chelsea, Stephen, Julissa, Betsy, and Miranda - provided top notch service. They ensure you truly have the best day from start to finish. You can feel the passion from this team and their internal communication is seamless. Put your trust in this group because they will make your dream day come to life! Thank you again!!

Our dream wedding truly came to life at Ravel. The support and professionalism of Ravel's exceptional staff made our wedding absolutely incredible. If you are looking for a classic, yet modern and sophisticated, fun-filled NYC wedding, look no further.

We shopped at different venues, but the second we saw the Penthouse at Ravel and spoke with Eman, we knew it was the only place to have our wedding.

Ravel provides amazing food (mentioned to us by everyone), an incredible ambience, terrific views, and outstanding service. Eman, the events manager, is phenomenal. She helped us plan each part of our wedding with incredible ease and brought all of our visions to fruition. She even helped with hiring our vendors, which was extremely helpful! Eman and her team at Ravel are the complete package and they nailed it for us.

The hotel rooms were wonderful, including balconies for the views, and amenities were great. All of our guests were incredibly happy and continue to rave about how great of a time they had and how beautiful it all was.

Truly a special thank you to Eman, Stephen, Jadelyn, Betsy, Julissa, and everyone at Ravel who made our memorable night unforgettable.

On Saturday March 18,2023 we celebrated my son and daughter in law’s wedding at the Ravel hotel venue. Even before we booked the date, Eman was hands on, easily approachable and available for us through open communication lines in a most professional manner.
We could not be more thrilled to have chosen The Ravel for our son’s wedding! The hotel itself (located across a covered parking garage from the event spaces) is so cozy yet super trendy and stylish with its beautifully appointed hotel rooms and gorgeous NY views. The events sales manager Julissa took extra special care of our guest room block, giving personal attention to our friends and family throughout the weekend. The bride and groom were lucky enough to stay at the Grand Estates Suite which is a very large suite with a full kitchen; Everything a bride could wish for on her wedding day, in a space to get ready with her brides maids.
On Friday evening we hosted a welcome cocktail reception in the Foyer, coordinated by Eman and Betsey and their team. The food stations were not only decadent, but a sight to behold! It was incredible!
On the day of the wedding, once again Eman was instrumental in making sure every detail was perfectly executed; from the florist, to meeting with the band, reconfiguring the ceremony space, and even pinning the boutonnière on our little ring bearer’s tiny tux.
As the groom’s mother (and a very nitpicky person) I knew this place was unique but .. The wedding itself was above and beyond my expectations, everything from the spacious spaces, to the ridiculously delicious food, the service .. everything was so elevated, so elegant!!
Thank you Eman and everyone at the Ravel!
Wow a what a weekend!
I highly highly recommend the Ravel hotel and events venue!

Our wedding at the Ravel was simply perfect - so far beyond our expectations! If you are looking for a New York venue with AMAZING food and drinks, City views, cozy rooms, and an elegant party, this is the place for you.  Eman is a real professional, she is detail oriented, and was so enthusiastic helping us every step of the planning process.  The entire Ravel team (Eman, Betsy, Stephen, and Jadelyn) on the day of the wedding made sure everything ran seamlessly.  Julissa took meticulous care of the room block for our guests and during an extremely challenging situation she and her staff were caring, kind and professional.  The food and the atmosphere were spectacular, we felt right at home.  The Ravel truly made our wedding a dream come true and we could not recommend it enough!
