Terrace On The Park Reviews

Three months, ago I had my wedding/Reception at Terrace on the Park in the Chapel and Rose Ballroom. I must say the venue is lovely and accommodated my 353 guests.

I, reside in Georgia and was in great hands with my Banquet Manager Nicole Barroca and the entire team assigned to us. Nicole handle every question, concern and issues that arose.

The food, desserts and drinks met our expectations and our guests.

Due to the size of our guest headcount. Nicole made sure adequate staff was on duty the day of the wedding to accommodate us and our guests. Special thanks to Jocelyn, my bridal attendant. She did an excellent job moving us from one to suite to another. She made sure we had everything we needed and stayed with us until we left.

The only complaint I have is the decor. I would recommend updating the chairs and getting rid of the carpet. By putting down a floor and use neutral colors that can be used with any theme or color decor.

I hired a decor team coordinator to match the colors in the ballroom. I was able to use my wedding colors in the Chapel but not in the Ballroom.

Nevertheless, I used their linen for the tables in the Rose Ballroom and had my decor team work with the colors in the ballroom. By matching the flowers, plate charges, centerpiece and chair covers to the color of the carpet.

We also put a floor decal on the dance floor via their vendor Bravo Sound. Overall, our experience was great and I would use this venue again.

The entire Terrace on the Park staff did an excellent job.

The Terrace on the Park team. Job well done. We appreciate you and thank you. The Branches.

The moment my husband and I viewed Terrace, we knew we wanted our wedding reception there; the beauty of the city which is what my husband wanted, and a spacious ballroom for dancing. We were a little nervous regarding the food after reading some reviews, but we ended up really enjoying the cocktail hr food and dinner! The bartenders made amazing drinks, especially our signature drinks.

Ken was our banquet manager and answered any questions we had from start to finish. Nicole was also very helpful with setting up our floor plan. All of the staff on our reception night were timely and professional. Everyone was super helpful and the team did an amazing job putting everything together for us!

Terrace on the Park was a lovely venue for our Korean/Salvadoran wedding! The Penthouse allowed us to have a wonderful rooftop ceremony and our guests loved talking photographs of the golden hour glow with the Manhattan skyline as a backdrop. From the beginning of the process Mildred was thoughtful in answering our questions and welcomed us and our family members for multiple visits and walkthroughs. Our banquet manager, Oscar, closer to the day of the wedding was very helpful as were our Maitre D, bridal assistant, and staff on the day of the event. We chose to use their preferred Korean vendor to cater our even and they went above and beyond in attending to us, our family members, and our guests. We continue to be in awe of Terrace on the Park and can’t thank you enough for making our wedding day so memorable!

We just had our wedding at Terrace at the Park last Saturday (end of April 2023, for future readers), and we could not be happier with our choice of venue!! Even in NYC, planning a same sex wedding is stressful because you never know the kind of responses and interactions you will receive when inquiring about a venue. Every single person we worked with along the way from Ken (the banquet manager) to Nicole (our finalization manager) to Katrina (our maitre'd) - was simply phenomenal! We felt so respected and cared for every single time we reached out with a question -- and trust me, I reached out ALOT. :-)

The entire staff at Terrace on the Park accommodated our whopping 230+ guests with grace and a smile. Even the day of the wedding, we had booked the Penthouse Terrace to enjoy our ceremony and cocktail hour outside, was a last minute change due to April rain showers. At 3:30pm that day, we were called and changes were made to make the day go as smoothly as possible since we had to move the cocktail hour indoors - and honestly was even better than we could have imagined. So many people told us after how amazing the staff was and how quickly they got them anything they needed immediately.

Please check out this awesome venue and wonderful staff. I am not sharing photos from the reception for privacy for our guests, but look at how gorgeous the reception ballroom. A++++ all the way! THANK YOU!!!

We chose this place and the date JULY 8TH 2021 , in the middle of a pandemic. We struggled with the threat of postponing or having a masked wedding. Jennifer F. was so supportive and calm through it I’ve gained a friend. Our wedding was ENCHANTED!! We had PEOPLE making sure all our needs were met! ( we don’t remember their names but everyone that helped us that was amazing)We felt like royalty. They made the beginning of the our marriage a fairytale!

We selected Terrace based on a few factors: convenience of travel, pricing, and facility tours. The location was very easy for our guests to reach by car or public transportation. The pricing was reasonable and fair. The facility was beautiful, all of the suites as well as rooftop and garden were impressive. The day of the ceremony I was behind schedule but the bridal attendant kept me on track and guided us through the entire day smoothly. My guests raved about the food (and alcohol lol). It was a beautiful day and we were very happy.

I wanted to start out by saying that George was absolutely professional. He will make sure that your day is absolutely perfect. George makes sure that everything you need is being provided. He listens to want u want and needs and he guarantee you that everyone will be safe and satisfied especially the fact that when I told him that I have the deaf community and also my parents who is also deaf is well taken care of. Thank you George for the tour I can’t for mines and my fiancé day to come.

My agent is George. He is wonderful, great personality. George worked with my niece who will be getting married July 2021 and gave us a great package that will be suitable to our budget; my sister had to pinched him to make sure it was real. His professionalism is Impeccable. I highly recommend Terrace On The Park ask for George..

My husband and I started our wedding venue search with Terrace on the Park on our list because we had our high school prom here in 2008. After an initial walk through and meeting with George, we decided that this was our venue. Closer to the wedding, we started meeting with Monica to help us finalize everything and you can tell she had a passion for this. Fast forward to the day of the wedding – we arrived 2 hours prior to begin setting up the ceremony and make sure everything was going smoothly. Everything went beautifully thanks to the whole team at Terrace, but more specifically to my bridal attendant Martiza and our maître de Robert. Maritza was a HUGE BLESSING the whole night. From the minute I walked through the door, she was by my side making sure that I had everything I needed. Through the whole night, she made sure my husband and I had food, drinks, and anything else that we needed. She kept us on schedule (which we needed) and guided us through everything. Thank you, Maritza, for being such a huge and important part to our day, and thank you to the whole staff for everything! Our wedding was perfect.

I couldn't thank them enough! They were wonderful George and especially Monica! Thank you again so much for EVERYTHING they went over and beyond. The service on the day of the wedding was hands on! I couldn't of found a better location for our wedding.

My guests and I had a great time. It was within good budget

Excellent venue. Beautiful place. We booked the garden room for our wedding. Our wedding will be July 14th, 2019. So far the venue has been very cooperative. Can’t wait to our wedding day.
They have responded to our questions and all our doubts. It has made our wedding planning very enjoyable.

The staff was so welcoming and warm. They attending to all of our needs and made us feel so comfortable. We absolutely loved the venue, it’s beautiful Nd well kept!

George helped me with all my decision. My wedding will be in 2021 and its 2018 and I already have booked my place. George C is great, very professional.

Have had previous events here and now planning my wedding here 2016. They are great to work with. Venue space, food and price all is great here. Gorgeous view from their penthouse room.

My fiance and I loved Terrace on the Park so much that we changed our original venue to make this our ultimate wedding spot. What really set Terrace on the Park aside from all of the other wedding venues that we were looking at was the value, quality, and location. I love the fact that a wedding cake is included in the package, as well as top shelf alcohol, and cocktail hour and sit down dinner service. Mots of the other places that we visited were nice, but they were either in a not so great area, or they charged too much for what was offered. Terrace on the Park offers a great all inclusive package with regard to food. Lisbeth Recio our coordinator has been a pleasure to work with. She would promptly respond to any emails that I would send her and has been an overall great person to work with. I can't wait until my summer wedding next year.

Everything was perfect. Our coordinator was Jenn, she was fantastic from the first day of planning right up to the reception. My maitride was excellent. She greeted me as I got out of the limo and stood there holding my dress. She was with me the whole night holding and fixing my dress. She made sure I had a drink in my hand all night. The room was set up just right. The food was good. I have no complaints at all, only compliments to the staff. Everyone had a great time.

We booked the penthouse for our Saturday evening wedding reception. Ricky was our banquet manager and was very friendly, efficient, and professional. He answered every and any question I had during my 14-mo planning. We were provided a maître d and bridal attendant that helped get us anything we needed and ensured things stayed on track. The room was setup beautifully and exactly as we requested. If I noticed anything out of place, they quickly corrected it. The staff provided white gloved service and remained professional and courteous at all times. We had a traditional Nigerian wedding and needed outside catering and that request was honored without hiccup. The room was immaculately decorated thereby requiring very little decorating. I would highly recommend this beautiful venue. The penthouse offers breath taking views of the city skyline and historic unisphere in Flushing Meadow Park.

I used Terrace on park for my wedding and it was a dream come true

One of the best decisions I made for my wedding was booking Terrace On The Park! From our very first visit and up until our big day, they were super accommodating, responsive and very organized. We’re an international couple, that was looking for an affordable, large rooftop venue that could accommodate 140+ guests. The TOTP team were thorough in explaining the contracts, allowed us as many venue visits as we wished and on the day of, provided white glove service! While it rained on our big day and plans needed to change, it was all done seamlessly. They provided a small buffet of fruit, salads, and drinks in the bridal suite while we waited for our pre-ceremony photoshoot to start and the guests to arrive. The food was amazing! We’re so glad we added in the sushi platter during the cocktail hour, the amuse bouche during dinner, (the lemon sorbet was delicious) and our signature cocktail (Lavender Gin Lemonade)! Our guests are still raving about how amazing the service, food, and drinks were. We even hired ND Cigars for our cocktail hour, which added a touch of class to our event. We brought our own DJ from home, but hired a few of their preferred vendors, ACM Event Group (equipment rental & MC) and Tino Photography, for which they were all a pleasure to work with!


Just a few of the amazing staff we had the opportunity to work with at TOTP are:
Ken Weintraub – Event Manager
Nicole Barroca – Finalist Manager
Jovanna Trapani – Operations
Allison – Bridal Attendant

PS... The morning after our wedding we met a couple staying at our hotel that also got married at Terrace On The Park, 41 years ago!!! I never thought I could feel even more secure about the decision to book them, but I did! They too raved about how good the venue was all those years ago!!

BOOK THEM NOW! You won’t regret it!

As a bride-to-be, I was starting to feel overwhelmed with where to start when it came to wedding planning. Terrance on the Park showed up in my searches and from the moment I met and spoke with one of their banquet managers, Jennifer, I knew I found the place where I could see myself getting married. My fiancé and I fell in love with the beauty of the place. I find it comforting knowing my special day is taken care of. The professionalism and communication with Jennifer are amazing. Highly recommend Terrace on the Park, especially working with Jennifer!

Jenn O'Brien was so helpful and displayed great proffesionalism when assisting me with booking this place. She has a great level of expertise. We went with the oak room which is gorgeous.
This is one of the few venues that accommodate party of size 50.

I have not had my event yet as it is in December, but I will say the experience so far has been lovely. The staff are so friendly, Jennifer especially who has done so much already to help me and my fiancé bring our vision to life (and on a budget.) I am very excited to continue planning at Terrace.

Jennifer was awesome in terms of clearly communicating price, services and many other details regarding the venue. She was extremely responsive and we were able to book the venue in an hour with all details clear cut in the contract. She was able to make a stressful process seamless, would highly recommend this place again!

Terrace on The Park Penthouse and Rooftop – Don’t bother to look any place else! This is where you get married!
Ask for Renee Letterel and Nicole Hartlett. While we are sure there are others who are just as capable and competent - these two hands down are nothing short of perfection and a pleasure to work. AND both have had their receptions in the same rooms! From the minute we met to the day we said “I DO”, they were there all the way. You could call with random questions, they have the answer, they walk you though it and you hang up the phone thinking “Yep, we got this!” The food was exceptional and plenty of it. We had the top of the line menu, top shelf bar and sprung for a 2 hour cocktail party. The staff was spot on, every single server was pleasant, kind, attentive and fun. Don't bother wasting your time looking any place else, get the rooftop and penthouse and you will not be sorry. This is the most picturesque place to be, you can't take a bad photo, the views are spectacular with the Manhattan Skyline, Citi Field, US Open, World's Fair Unisphere & the Queens Museum to name a few. It just goes on and on. The penthouse and rooftop need no decorating, it is beautiful as is. It has been a little more than 3 weeks since the very best day of our lives and we are still hearing from our guests that it was the best wedding they had ever attended. Our friends keep saying it was the best time they have had and are anxious for a vow renewal!
