    An Amazing Night!

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Rule of Thirds as our wedding venue. From the start, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly kind. They answered every question, accommodated all of our requests, and made the planning process so smooth and stress-free.

    On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly thanks to their organized and attentive staff. They were flexible with last-minute adjustments and ensured every detail was perfect. The venue itself is stunning—our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the space was!

    If you’re looking for a venue with excellent communication, a warm and professional team, and a gorgeous setting, Rule of Thirds is an amazing choice. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day!

    November Rule of Thirds Wedding

    I would recommend ROT to anyone interested in having a city wedding!! Our friends were literally like -- are you guys having a wedding? Because we had so little stress planning it. Once we booked, basically everything was taken care of and planning was a breeze. Paige, our coordinator, was incredible and helped us with all of the little things we needed to do and made the day so smooth. Everyone said it was by far the best food and service theyve ever had at a wedding. The bartenders were so on it and professional, there was never a line for a drink. The food was delicious and came out hot even for dinner with 180 people! Everyone also...

    Wedding of our Dreams

    Rule of Thirds was the wedding venue of our absolute dreams! From the very first email to the day of our wedding, the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The staff was incredible, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the exceptional service and phenomenal food. So many of them said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had.



    Julie, one of the amazing event managers, made the planning process an absolute breeze. From our first visit to the venue, she and her team were so professional, helpful, and clearly experts at what they do. They took nearly all of the work off our hands, making it possible for us to plan the perfect...

    "Wedding of the Year" according to our guests

    We just had our wedding at Rule of Thirds in the Atrium and corner room, and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement.
    The food, the staff, the service, the space everything was amazing. Our guests have been non stop raving about what a wonderful time they had. No complaints, just a glowing review! Would do it all over again

    A quintessential Brooklyn venue

    Our guests are still raving about the food from our wedding at Rule of Thirds! We loved working with the venue coordinators, from start to finish, and they made us feel extra special during our out-of-this-world wedding tasting. They even made us a new signature cocktail by mixing their delicious, non-alcoholic Melonade with tequila. Everyone loved them!

    We also didn't have to spend too much on decor because the venue was already so beautiful. A plus for any budget-conscious couples!

    One aspect we greatly appreciated was the use of one of their private rooms. The coordinators warned us that we may not have access to them if they're rented out, but luckily, no one booked them the...

    Best wedding at Rule of Thirds!

    We had a fantastic experience getting married at Rule of Thirds. We were drawn to it for the beautiful space and the delicious food — both of those things delivered — but we were even more impressed with the service.

    From the beginning, they were super amenable, answering every question we had quickly, and being very available for us to drop by to be in the space multiple times. We used on of their in-house day-of coordinators, Paige, who was really friendly and on top of everything. The day ran smoothly — we had nothing to think or worry about, and were just able to have a good time.

    Many of our guests commented on...

    Amazing!

    We had such a wonderful experience having our wedding here! The venue itself is beautiful with wood and brick details already outfitted with thriving green plants to tie into your floral arrangements, the food is delicious (we got so many compliments about the meal), the staff is attentive and helpful, but what really made the night so special was our Rule of Thirds planner, Sydney who went above and beyond and made sure everything was perfect for us. Thank you so so so much! 10/10 Definitely recommend!

    Rule of Thirds is the best Brooklyn Wedding Venue!

    We hosted our wedding at Rule of Thirds this past May and had the absolute best experience. Sydney and the entire events team went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. They worked with us to bring in our list of preferred wines, ensured all of our vendors could seamlessly set up everything, and we heard from many guests that the food at our wedding was the best wedding food ever. We can't recommend Rule of Thirds enough!

    We had an absolutely PERFECT wedding at Rule of Thirds venue. We loved our coordinator, Sydney, and truly could not have done it without her. The food is amazing and wouldn't have changed a thing.

    Everything We Could Have Asked For (and more)!

    Working with Sydney and the Rule of Thirds staff was a seamless, stress-free experience. Not only is the venue stunning and dreamy, but the entire staff was impeccable and attuned to every detail from the beginning to the end of our wedding. Sydney was responsive, beyond helpful, and brought our vision to life. She helped us feel grounded and at ease throughout the entire process. COULD NOT RECOMMEND RULE OF THIRDS MORE!! It was perfect.

    The best wedding venue + food + drinks ever

    My husband and I live a 5 minute walk from Rule of Thirds and it's a practice in extreme self-control to not go there for brunch or dinner all the time. But that's not why I'm writing a review today. It's because of the INCREDIBLE time we had hosting our wedding at Rule of Thirds. Take the BEST food and drinks + impeccable service from all Rule of Thirds staff and event managers + a beautiful space that gives you a lot of beautiful starting points to build off of and it truly gets you the best wedding ever. We couldn't wait to share all of what Rule of Thirds has to offer to our friends and family who...

    RoT is amazing

    We hosted our wedding at Rule of Thirds, and it’s hard to put into words just how incredible the experience was. From the very beginning, the team made us feel like we were in the best hands—and on the big day, they absolutely delivered.

    We want to especially recognize Lucia, Julie, and Mandy, who went above and beyond at every turn. Lucia, in particular, was a calm, steady presence throughout the night and made sure we were taken care of at every moment—anticipating our needs before we even knew what they were. She was genuinely a joy to be around and a huge part of why we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves.

    Rule of Thirds is the best!!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Rule of Thirds. We had our wedding there in December and it was flawless. The food is exceptional. The space is stunning. Mandy, Julie and the whole team were responsive and helpful. We had 118 guests and had plenty of space for our ceremony, dinner and dancing. If you want a fun Brooklyn wedding with a cool vibe then this is the spot!!! It was the best day of our lives and we’re so thankful we chose Rule of Thirds!

    Amazing experience

    We had our October 2024 wedding at Rule of Thirds and it was the best decision we could have made. It is an absolutely stunning and unique space. Their menu is incredible. Cocktails, apps, entrees, etc. We have had a lot of guests sending us messages a month later telling us that they’re still dreaming about the food. Their team could not have been more professional, kind, and communicative with us throughout the wedding planning process. We worked closely with Julie who is a superstar. She went above and beyond to make the day feel seamless and special - Julie is incredibly on the ball and is always thinking ahead and about the details. She gave us excellent advice...

    Modern Chic Brookyln Wedding

    We are SO happy with our decision to have our wedding at Rule of Thirds in Brooklyn and couldn't be more pleased with the experience.

    Living in Florida, we embarked on a journey to Brooklyn for site visits and instantly fell in love with Rule of Thirds. This Japanese restaurant boasts an industrial chic private event space that perfectly suited our needs. While the venue offers the option for a full buyout, our guest count of just over 100 was ideal for the private space, which could have accommodated even more.

    From the very start, the staff at Rule of Thirds were professional and on top of everything. The venue's inherent beauty was a major...

    The BEST venue!!

    Where to even begin! First off, my wife and I had a fairly large wedding for NYC, roughly 200 people, so when we started to look at venues, we were so nervous about what we would find. Rule of Thirds was actually the first venue we saw, and we were blown away by the space. If you’re renting out the full venue, you get access to the entire restaurant, plus the event space, as well as the outdoor area. It makes the flow of the wedding so nice, so everyone wasn’t crammed into one space as they were trying to flip it for the ceremony, dinner, and dancing. We were also able to rent out the photo studio attached...

    The reception of my dreams!

    I had the reception of my dreams here. Aka the best weekend of my life! ROT spoiled my partner and I throughout the process. They were communicative, professional, and warm. They made it as easy as possible, and it was fun! I loved our tasting, they made us feel like guests of honor. They brought us snacks and drinks in the bridal suite the day of. They made sure we were comfortable and taken care of. The servers and bartenders were all amazing and contributed to a lovely atmosphere. It’s such a relaxed and fun environment, yet tasteful and well-designed. We didn’t need a lot of decor, and all our guests had the best time :)

    Amazing Wedding Venue

    We’re so glad we went with Rule of Thirds for our venue. In our planning stages, we were so happy to find Rule of Thirds after many unsuccessful searches. Venues in the Catskills, while gorgeous, were difficult for our guests to get to and required us to figure out guest accommodations while NYC venues were either too stuffy, too expensive or too small. Rule of Thirds checked all our boxes — cool vibe, great food, large enough for eating and dancing and an all service vendor. And as an added perk, there was so much greenery already in the venue which made decor a lot easier for us.

    In the end, we really couldn’t imagine a better vendor...

    Rule of thirds: stunning

    We held our wedding at Rule of Thirds and could not have asked for a better experience. Our wedding coordinators, Sydney and Paige, were there every step of the way (via multiple showings, prep zooms, vendor coordination, day of texts and during-event check-ins) to make our day perfect. Our guests RAVED about the food (the Prime Rib was the VIP) and drinks, superior service and the airy venue space - it was truly perfect.

    I would also count the venue as a more affordable wedding venue by NYC standards. The Rule of Thirds team was flexible in accommodating our needs (e.g. we opted for a cocktail reception versus a sit-down dinner). The space is prime for decorations...

    Best wedding venue ever!!!

    We had our wedding here and it was truly a flawless night thanks to the team at ROT. The food was fantastic and perfectly portioned and our guests couldn't get enough. The space itself was beautiful and required minimal additional decorating, and it was the perfect size for our group of 135. The planning and coordinating process was smooth from start to finish, and we couldn't recommend it more as a place to host your special day.

    Best venue ever

    We hosted our 275 person wedding here in April. It was a better venue than we could have imagined. Service was incredible even with that large number of people. The food and drinks were excellent, and the tasting for it was an event in itself. They were super flexible to work with. The full buy out is such a unique experience. The sake tasting is a MUST. Perfect venue in any weather (it rained for ours and we were still able to use the courtyard and tents really well).

    Beautiful space, incredible food, great service

    We looked thoroughly at all the venues throughout Brooklyn, but finally landed on Rule of Thirds and it was the best decision ever! We had a medium-sized wedding (80 people) so we only had the event space, but it is beautifully sunlit and full of greenery that already creates an ambiance. Food & drink were very important to us, and as we've already been to the restaurant many times, we were happy that the quality was just the same as it is eating in the restaurant — SO many of our guests have later told us it was the best wedding meal they've ever had (though we weren't surprised, we love RoT)! The waitstaff is professional and on point, they...

    Great experience

    Rule of Thirds was incredible. Sydney was a pleasure to work with - she was accommodating and was quick to respond to all of our questions. The venue is spacious, open, and filled with plants- we had minimal decor/florals and only candles for additional lighting, and it looked beautiful. The restaurant did everything (bar, servers, printed menus, set the tables, etc.), and the food and service were amazing. The only additional expenses were a DJ and photographer. Most of the planning happened at the last minute, which worked fine with us.

    Rule of thirds was the perfect place for our wedding. We loved working with Sydney and staff. We thought that everything came out perfectly and was our dream wedding dinner party.
